I love the disclaimer "dont trust the taste of my oatmeal recipes but you can trust the nutritional value". I went here bec I saw your vid about 15k steps a day. I was right! You were a runway model. Such an inspiration to everyone to nurture and love our self.

[@NinjaAirBike]

By no surprise, I've never known a runway model. Appreciate your candor and willingness to share! It's not very easy to change your natural body shape and if you attempt it it needs to be done in a slow and healthy way. It sounds like your experience has made you healthier in the long run!

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks for your thoughtful comment! It definitely has! And it has made me appreciate my body more. ☺️ Being around a lot of models in my early 20’s, I realized that there’s no such thing as a “perfect body”. Every model is deeply insecure about some parts of their physical form. And what “other people have” always seems to be more desirable to us. Now I appreciate how diverse bodies can be and how they are all have their own cool vibes. ⚡️🌸

[@allNicksAlreadyTaken]

3:11 Re "The most important thing is not how you look, but how you feel". And while I would love for it to be that way, you have to realize your privilege here. You have been a model and you might as well be one now. Losing weight and improving my looks has improved my life *massively* simply by how other people treat me, even though I don't really notice a huge difference in how I feel in my own body. I think what you are saying is true if the ways someone is trying to improve their looks is massively impacting their health and it becomes a tradeoff, especially if it doesn't really help much anyways (e.g. trying to lose weight, when you are already very lean), but of course it does make a huge difference how you look and if something can improve your health at the same time, then it's probably a step worth taking even more.

The heroin chic era of the 90s when I was in high school & a young adult was even worse. You likely would’ve been told to lose 15 pounds if you’d been a model back then. The only way the models could make themselves skinny enough was extreme drug use, hence “heroin chic”. It got so horrible that even President Clinton came out & gave a speech about it. I remember seeing some of the magazine pictures & their skin @ bones reminded me of the starving children of Ethiopia from the 80s. Those poor girls looked sick & half dead, & of course, it made all of us perfectly normal, healthy girls think we were horribly overweight when we were healthy, normal weight.

[@ThankYouJesusTheChrist]

Was a model during that era, in modeling school they taught us to throw up if we ate anything but steamed chicken, salad or apples

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Wow-it breaks my heart that this unhealthy standard was ever in vogue. I’m really happy to see more diversity in the magazines / ads /runways these days. I know several current models who live balanced and healthy lives. 🤍

I used to want to be a model but so glad I did not get into modeling. I could never be that thin at 5'9. I currently weigh between 132-134lbs but have never been this weight in my whole life except maybe high school. I am 61years old. I became a raw vegan in 2018. Now I have included some cooked foods into my diet. I feel great! Have been able to get rid of that menopausal belly weight by eating a variety of cruciferous veggies, and lentils. My protein is vegan protein powders, beans, leafy greens, some nut butters and plant based yogurt. I love oats for breakfast (steel cut). Will try that veggie oats recipe you mentioned in your video. You are very inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing this!

[@luluandmeow]

Your diet sounds so healthy but I don't think anyone needs protein powder, the world is obsessed with protein yet virtually noone is protein deficient, you get the protein from the wonderful plant food you eat!

[@felipeg.7111]

"It feels so much better to eat in a way that is guided by how I feel", that is so true. I experimented with intermittent fasting back in 2009 (read about it in a magazine), mainly to experiment with bodyweight control but it was hard to maintain. Then five years ago, I started doing it because I had classes at the start of my day, and God my mental clarity was noticeably better! Since then, I listen to my body for hunger cues. Sometimes they kick in after 20 hours of fasting without even notice, but I try to follow an 18/6 regime. If short in calories: peanut butter + 85% dark chocolate + dates = it's like a snickers full of nutrients! Other than that I'm a pescetarian, eat a lot of fruit and veggies, and I'm trying to ditch plant-based "meats"; there is just so much stuff in some of them.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Love this! Thanks so much for sharing. And that “snickers” recipe is my kinda recipe 😋 nutrient-dense cooking can be so fun and delicious.

[@littlevoice_11]

I love the mental clarity that comes from intermittent fasting/time restricted eating because cognitive ability is enhanced by ketones (produced internally or via exogenous ketones). But a 20hr fast can trigger binge wating and muscle loss if you are also in a calorie deficit. The only way to mitigate this is to ensure all your required micronutrients are included and that you eat enough calories to maintain weight - especially protein and vegetables.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

This is super on point! Also love the mental clarity. I’ve slowly been finding my ideal dietary patterns for mental clarity. Protein preloading meals has helped me a lot. :)

[@littlevoice_11]

@@TheScienceofSelfCare I also find supplementing electrolytes and occasionally a healthy MCT can help. (There are even collagen, chocolate versions without added artificial ingredients)

[@Tiger_Lightning_Music]

You are so gorgeous! Makes total sense you were a model. I love this balanced approach and it’s quite inspirational. But for the ladies out there who do IF or thinking about it, I believe the hormonal issues probably weren’t due to IF, or at least that it’s hard to pinpoint that if you were severely under eating, over exercising and highly caffeinating (something I learned can definitely mess with women’s hormones) at the same time. As a woman, fasting to me feels great and healthy given I eat plenty (as in I track calories and make sure most of the time) when I do eat. But I’m also nowhere near underweight for my height.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

I think it’s a great point! Thanks for sharing. I did try IF when eating more calories and putting on weight, but my body still seems a little sensitive to long fasts. So now I just eat a late breakfast and it works perfectly for me :) But seriously our bodies are all so unique. And I’ve heard several women say their hormones balanced out with IF. I’m happy you’ve found something that works for your body!

[@emkn1479]

I’ve been trying to learn a lot about intermittent fasting because it sort of gels with my natural way of eating. For instance I can’t drink coffee (or anything other than water really) with food, it gives me the worst indigestion that just keeps going all day, and I don’t really feel good when I eat breakfast. From what I’ve heard, it’s important to cycle fasting with hormone cycles to keep things balanced.

[@abby_inez]

It's been a little while since you commented, but can you tell me a little bit more about cycling fasting with your hormonal cycle? Would love to learn more about it, thanks for sharing! :)

[@emkn1479]

@@abby_inez from what I’ve heard, progesterone during the second part of the cycle requires blood glucose levels to be higher than what fasting may allow, and so it’s not a good idea to fast during the last week, right before the period starts. Still eating healthfully, but not focusing on the hourly limitations. But there’s a lot of controversy out there and the sources aren’t always reliable, so it’s important to do our own research. I need to do more myself, but on its face, that does make sense, and may explain part of the reason why some women lose their period and suffer other potentially hormonally based symptoms like hair loss when fasting, because they’re so regimented, not allowing the fasting to be influenced by natural hormonal cycles. Just one potential reason, everyone is different, but that’s what I was referring to 🙃

Thanks for this - you're a breath of fresh air! I found you from Nic's Physionic channel - you two were so cute together on that episode (weighted vest). I LOVE steel-cut oats too... but I usually eat them savory!! Every single day for breakfast, I mix cooked oats with wilted arugula, egg, a little psyllium husk & dash of apple cider vinegar - mix it up, fry it as a pancake - then put a big dollop of plain Greek yogurt on top (sort of like a potato latke with sour cream, but not :D ). I could even eat steel-cut oats with just a little yummy (peppery high polyphenol) evoo & salt on top. :) Sweet oats are yummy too!!

[@stx7389]

16:45 finally someone that doesn't follow the cult trends on social media, your diet is very healthy and balanced ( i have a phD in nutritional biochemistry) and can confirm many of the stuff you said are correct, also fat is very crucial for hormones, i would suggest at least 20% of total calories, and 25-30 as optimal

[@mselainetheartist.5410]

20:4 IF is great. But I understand everyone is different. Fasting cleanses your body on an inta-cellular level. Loved this video though. Great tips

[@Tiger_Lightning_Music]

Right. I think the hormonal issues were likely due to the intense caffeine usage and general undernourishment/over exercising! I think IF is made to seem scary for women when we are just as capable of doing it healthily as men. Other than that I think the other points in this video were great.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

I tried IF while eating more and gaining weight, but 20 hours is just too long for my body. It causes me to lose my period. So now I do sort of “intuitive fasting” with a later breakfast. :)

I am wondering if you know the glycemic index differences between over night rolled oats and steel cut oats that are cooked with heat? Do you cook the collagen or add it after cooking? I’m guessing that steel cut oats are better over all but essentially is just a different form of the same kernel. I like the texture of overnight oats over cooked rolled oats. In warm weather the coolness of refrigerated oats is nice. Perhaps the overnight oats might not work so well with vegetables. I may have to give steel cut a try! Yes to chocolate.

Great video! I really loved the idea of comparing your model vs entrepreneur meals. I can relate to your love of chocolate. I used to restrict it completely for many years, but recently started incorporating 100% dark chocolate every day, which I very much enjoy. However, lately I have stopped eating it every day after learning about the heavy metals in the many of the easily accessible brands. So I was wondering if you knew about this and if there's anything you do about it. I myself, haven't found a dark chocolate with a safe amount of heavy metals, but still enjoy some dark chocolate, just not daily. And I also love matcha! But just one cup for me before 12pm and chocolate before 3pm because I'm extremely sensitive to caffeine, which is one of the reasons why I stopped doing all caffeine for a while...

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks for sharing! Yes I remember the day I read that heavy metal chocolate report… I was so sad! I still eat chocolate now, just much less-like you do. And I don’t buy Lindt often. There were certain brands like Mast that were relatively ok. To be fair, most of our spices also probably include heavy metals as well. I think all we can do is eat these things in moderation. I used to put crazy amounts of cinnamon on everything. Now I’m a tad more tempered.

@TheScienceofSelfCare I understand. But it's nice to see people's recommendations. Especially because healthy alternatives to sugary processed food is sooooo expensive so it's nice to hear what someone likes and why to see if it's worth buying. Here in UK there are many bars marketed as "healthy" but are actually really unhealthy and have hidden sugar. Plus they cost double the price of others. So it's easy to be misled. On the other hand there are genuinely good brands that care about health and taste. Still very expensive and it's hard to know where to invest.

I did notice I was gaining weight so I cut back a little bit but I still ate anything I wanted and didn't gain more weight. When I got out of the military I would make large meals for my husband which helped him as a truck driver but they weren't as healthy as they should have been and so over time he has diabetes and I have pre-diabetes with a very large stomach. I've tried eating vegan for 10 years and it made us all unhealthy. I tried eating keto for two weeks and I thought I was going to explode I felt so fat. Nowadays my body feels better when I don't eat but my head hurts if I don't eat. Not sure what to do with my eating. My mornings is 2 cups of tea with two cups of lemon water and two cups of creamed black coffee. At lunch I pack a meal of one part meat and 3/4 parts vegetables. Could be in the form of soup also. With that I'll have two slices of bread. After that we'll have two cups of water with a little bit of apple cider vinegar.

Since filming this I have majorly upped my protein. I’m loving it :)

@@TheScienceofSelfCare great!

You looked so good though as a model didn’t look unhealthy at all?

Thanks for that feedback! Perhaps it’s just my body’s natural set point but I definitely did not have enough fat on me to maintain a period. I feel like I am now finding my balance: lean but hormonally healthy! :)
