[@flowersofthefield340]

I never say loosing weight, or weight loss. I say weight drop, weight reduction. I have reduced my weight by 6 stone. I am now on a journey to reduce the rest of the weight that I carry. I dropped the weight slowly and it has not come back. Thank you Stephen and David for inspiration to become a vegan. Nearly there.

[@thehappypear]

Amazing Edel! Love to hear about peoples journey with health and the vegan diet.

[@RAWKSTARtm]

I'm not vegan but I love your channel and recipes... Not to mention you two are ADORABLE and so much fun to watch!!!

[@thehappypear]

Ah you're just fab! Thanks a mill for all your support 😄🙌💚

[@DenBoer93]

Focus on WHOLE foods. Eat till you are 80% full. Don't worry about counting calories or macronutrients. Drink plenty of water. Avoid animal-based foods, oil, and heavily processed, refined foods. Cheers dudes!

[@thehappypear]

Super stuff Mitch! 😄🙌

[@maree607]

you give me hope with your positive talks,and the fact that you look good helps

I’ve been watching and following your recipes for a few months because of the healthier life style. I’ve just come across this video which I find is amazing because I now have a little more Xmas holiday weight than I would like. I love the work and knowledge you guys put out. Fantastic stuff. Thanks dudes……

[@jellamax]

Thanks lads. We are trying to eat healthier as a family but our real weakness seems to be movie nights at the weekend. Would love to see a vid on healthier snack options that kids will go for too.

[@jackass123491]

[@thehappypear]

We actually have a playlist of all the recipes our kids love- there's a good few snacks there kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6eycmevpa2nfK8 But we'll def put that on our list! 😄😋👍

[@flufftronable]

[@hammockmonk]

Wait... am I supposed to eat fruit, veg, beans, legumes & whole grains? lol. Way to get your point across. Love you guys.

[@maggiecunniffe3795]

lovely helpful video. presentation excellent and encouraging.Thank you. Am going to cook your Dahl curry today.

[@samphipps473]

You two should so do a kids nutrition show 🙌🏻

[@thehappypear]

Hahah YES!!!! Love it Sam 😄😋

[@tmdavidson1478]

Research the nutritional content of foods. For example, you can get a lot of B vitamins from leafy greens that are lower calories than grains. Keeping a list handy can help choose alternates for the same nutrients.

[@thehappypear]

Nice tips good on ya! 😄🙌

[@paulinailana]

Thanks so much for the information! Very timely for me as I'm entering into perimenopause and am finding my weight increasing with every morsel that meets me lips. :) Eat more Whole Foods! Love the information about the pleasure trap too. You two are wonderful, thanks for all the great videos.

[@thehappypear]

Glad you found it useful! 😄👍🙌

[@cookytrix]

can swish or "chew" a smoothie. better that just guzzling it. im not into them but have noticed they seem to digest better this way. same with nut butters and anything pre "chewed" by a machine

[@TMHUpNorth]

In two weeks I'm going to live away from home and I've decided to try my best and follow the example the Happy 🍐 have set! Wish me luck lads! 😀

[@thehappypear]

Ah gowan Thomas fair play! Best of luck with it 😄👍🙌

[@genuinedelusionsmusic]

My number 1 tip! Get some *sleep at a reasonable hour*. Late night snacking is the WORST. It can ruin a days efforts in minutes. Good luck!

[@Phyreflyte]

S R Time affects digestion. If you eat and then immediately go to bed and sleep for six+ hours, your food will not digest fully, and the fat and sugar can be stored differently. That's why it's typically recommended not to eat past 7:30 at night, that way your body can fully process and digest the way it needs to before entering sleep mode.

[@thehappypear]

Nice one! 😋👍

[@manoelareis1927]

much needed tips for me. thank you guys :)

[@thehappypear]

Thrilled you're finding it useful Manoela! 😄😋🙌

Saw the title, liked before ad was even over (ofc I watched the ad ;) Has to be a great video!

[@thehappypear]

Ah you're brilliant Charleyn! Big love 😍💚😄

[@siramea]

My tip would be to be cautious of things sold in health food shops, especially chain stores, not everything sold there is necessarily healthier or better for you. Always read the labels and make informed choices.

[@thehappypear]

Nice one! 😄😋🙌

[@PatriciaGG]

Awesome video and tips. Please guys more videos with ideas and tips!!!! Love from Spain!!! Patricia.

[@thehappypear]

[@purplestripes]

Thanks for the advice. I needed this as since discovering your channel have been binge watching your videos and making so many delicious meals and sweet treats (probably too many sweet treats 😊) I've never enjoyed food so much in all my life! Do you have any tips for a teenager who needs to gain weight? My son is always hungry and is constantly eating (all the wrong foods) so any advice on that would be wonderful. Thanks guys!☺

[@thehappypear]

Make sure he's eating lots of whole foods and good fats- nuts and avocados, and wholegrains! 😄😋👍

I just LOVE you guys!

[@robynlobana]

What are your views on intermittent fasting?

[@thehappypear]

We've read about it a lot and really back the science behind it and the health benefits. It's not to be taken lightly though, worth researching if you plan on trying it.

[@georginaoconnor5555]

This is so informative. I 💚u guys

[@Mythtrekker610]

Could you link the studies your referenced as I would love to read them.

[@doyleciaram]

Any advice for nut allergies?

[@jaspermcdowell229]

Don't eat nuts?

[@doyleciaram]

Jasper McDowell 'Mind Blown' The base of nearly all the desserts are nuts and most of the recipes contain nuts. What I mean is something to replace nuts.

[@KarleyBWare7210ask]

Seeds bro, best nut replacement :) sunflower is the best I've heard

[@ogaana6753]

I looooove you guys. That was helpful and simple ⭐⭐😍♥ Thaaaank u

[@thehappypear]

Wooooo delighted you found it useful! 😄😋🙌

[@cianoceallaigh7207]

Thanks for a great video lads :) one question, I don't understand the point on smoothies and fibre? Why do they have less fibre than the whole fruits? Even a homemade smoothie?

[@ScubaRick8]

Cian Ó Ceallaigh the fibre is partially broken down by the machine rather than you gut and intestines.

[@irishalltheway960]

Love your vids! But when i make a homemade smoothie with just fruits, veg and water I'm not getting the same amount of fiber than if I just ate it?

[@HopesIrishEyes]

Emma Devlin The process of blending everything causes your body to not have to break it down, pre-digesting it basically, so you don't get the same full feeling as if you ate each component. You can drink down a 1,000 calorie fruit smoothie with 5 apples, pineapple, mango, strawberries, etc., where you would be hard pressed to actuslly eat all that fruit! I just saw this mentioned by Dr McDougal yesterday on a video. ☺

[@goodsirknight]

Up Bagenalstown!

[@annieezekiel6019]

Are guys twin? Do you have a shop where we can pay a visit? We have tried the peanut sauce recipe, it was superb!

[@nathanlawrence8921]

So do you recommend not eating nuts?

[@thegreenjarret5184]

Currently working out on the guiness record for the biggest "delivery". XD I counter the sugar cravings with stevia water. Damn sugar is like cocaine, brain struggles to re-adjust. Being aware that candida can actually influence your thought process through the vagal nerve greatly helped me manage the addiction.

[@tamcon72]

Drug reference? Poo? Are ya havin' a baby?

[@thegreenjarret5184]

Sometimes it feels like it. XD

[@thehappypear]

Keep up the fantastic work! 😉😜🙌

[@melgray297]

You two are gorgeous and so fun to watch, love how you work together bouncing off each other. Thanks for all the awesome videos 🙏🙏

[@OZSA87]

What they say is all true, there's one more thing that helps you to stop eating junk food whenever you get bored/watch a movie or see others eating it, it's intermittent fasting, insanely easy, basically eat twice a day and fit those meals into an 8 hour period (2 big meals and if you must, in between, have fruits as desert). This will basically make you so full that in the first couple of days/weeks you will have to force the food down your throat, 2000 calories comes down to about 2.5 - 3kg of food (it's really hard for beginners to eat that much). I tested this, lost 12kg in 5months, with literally zero exercise (exercise is good but I wanted to test if you can lose weight as a couch potato, moving out of the house once a week or even less). You cannot eat stuff that has added sugar (if you want to sweeten something, use dates, soak and blend them), oil (no matter what kind, it's all the same when it comes to weight gain), (try to lower salt to the minimum 1-2g daily for preventing blood pressure/heart disease) try to eliminate all products that are made with flour and if you can't, only use 100% whole grain, whole meal products (the easiest way to check this, is to check the raw materials fiber content, let's say it's a lentil pasta, google lentil, check fiber content, if the pasta advertises as whole meal and it has way less fiber than the raw product (5% instead of 20%) then you know it's a BS product, usually the darker it is, the higher the fiber content). I eat fully whole food plant based but if you can't give up your meat, you can still achieve this, just first fill yourself up with fruit, lentils, beans, salad and only then (if you still can eat) consume meat. I guarantee a constant weight loss of at least 2kg/month if you do this (if you are overweight right now).

[@thehappypear]

Sounds super interesting! 😄👍

[@PicaloAndy]

Thank Guys, advice I need to follow! 👍 Andy

[@onelovevegan4061]

I'm far from vegan but I love their videos and partly thanks to them I eat 2-3-4 times more veggies now.

[@thehappypear]

Hahahahahha we don't count our calories just eat all the time!!!!! We're pretty much constantly active though! 😄😋👍

[@InsaneChef]

If you work out it's easy to need to eat over 2-3k calories

[@Icarus1234]

The info is top notch but the presentation was so cringey. I loved it!

[@thehappypear]

Hahahahaha 😄🙌💚

[@papichefitup]

lol if you eat an a apple your blende it up in a smoothie at home its the same thing just use water your coconut water for your base

[@dogcatparty7371]

are they twins?

[@judithscheepsma2073]

I am on the other side. I need the calories since when I eat healthy I lose weight I'm thin.

[@IvanIV05]

Why nobody cares about the poor fooled stomach? :D I agree with everything you say and it is actually working for me very well so far.

[@thehappypear]

That's so great Ivan!!! 😄😋🙌

[@ledyba57386]

They're almost as hot as the Hodge twins! 😍😍😍

[@MrsTumachina]

Shel Shel 1. eat enough fiber 2. eat lower calorie foods 3. avoid empty calories (sugary Drinks, juice etc) 4. Drink a lot of water 5. be aware of the "pleasure trap", we crave fat and sugar, eat whole foods

[@shel_shel]

MrsTumachina thank you very much hun

Good to no thanks

[@thehappypear]

Identical twins 😄👍

[@Corcioch]

One Tip for weight loss...."Eat less, Move more". Simple.

[@KarleyBWare7210ask]

#C careful there... people will read 'eat less' and will starve themselves. Definitely eat enough to sustain yourself, just eat those whole foods so the fibre fills you up and you have a small calorie decline (don't count calories too cause you'll get carried away with it, just eat until your full just eat the right foods)

[@thehappypear]

Nice one! 😄👍

[@eringobragh3390]

I've got a good tip for you guys. Stop selling dairy products at the happy pear, and stop selling overpriced kombucha in cheap plastic bottles. That's a big no no on both accounts. I visited the shop last month and was let down by this.

[@angelabacker1177]

they still need to make a profit.

[@cianoceallaigh7207]

I think overall they are making a much more positive impact than most hardcore vegans who may not relate to non vegans so well

[@Cosyforestdreams]

Wow, they sell dairy products...wtf? How ridiculous.

[@shivzmcgoo]

js mn oh my god they sell dairy?! Won't somebody please think of the children?! All jokes aside, I think it's great that they do sell dairy products, anyone going into their shop who wants to transition to a plant based diet might find it easier and not so intimidating. And I'm all up for that. And yes they need to make a profit. They have vids on how to make your kombucha if you do find it pricey.

[@thehappypear]

Thanks for the feedback! 😄👍🙌

[@suzie.3501]

GET TO THE POINT! YOU TWO TALK TOO MUCH! 😷
