1. More water 2. No oil 3. Move more 4. Avoid alcohol 5. More fibre 6. Salad before main meal 7. Eat when hungry, don’t skip meals

I'm obese and went on a Daniels fast for 30 days with my church. I had no process foods. Fruits and veggie diet only, and it inspired me to try becoming full vegan. I lost almost 20lbs in one month. I went back to meat but now I am reconsidering making this a lifestyle because I don't enjoy meat anymore. By the way, you are so energetic and gorgeous hunni. Keep shining

[@Psartz]

@@tammi67able ignore oils any oil and fried foods. all oild are dense in calories.for example if you eat half kilo of boiled potatoes it will give you 430 calories.if you fry same potetoes it will give you 1700 calories.makes world of difference.

[@mayap1786]

Kira 50 lbs is pretty good for year. Especially when your metabolism slows down as you get older. (Not saying 57 is all that old lol). Plus they may not be committed to a lifestyle of working out every and eating perfectly to specifically lose a lot of weight.

[@Midnight742]

[@daisyhart789]

I agree about cutting out alcohol. I finally accepted that it always makes me sick and gave it up. I don’t miss it! The only bad part is people get reallyyy weird about others not drinking. No I’m not pregnant. Yes I’m having fun without being drunk! Why do people care?! I’ve literally had to ask a bartender to fill a shot/lowball glass with water just to get people off my back.

[@animevampierangel131]

Daisy Hart Ya I have I think 3 friends who offer it but don't get weird if I don't want to drink that night.

[@karoosten232]

Daisy Hart agreed, adults are worse than college. Ultimately I think it comes down to their insecurities.

[@hydyho6305]

Daisy Hart Same here! It's been a couple of weeks now since I've had any alcohol. And I too just decided that it always makes me feel sick. Perhaps now I can start to get rid of this gut! (ie: beer belly) 😥

[@1029blue]

Growing up in Europe where the legal drinking age was lower and public drinking is common, I felt a lot of pressure from fellow classmates and even my parents to drink. I've never liked alcohol and never will. I don't care if people think it's weird that I don't drink. I actually think it's dangerous how used people are to drinking alcohol on a regular basis, considering it's a drug.

[@hydyho6305]

LolloRosso Absolutely correct. I recently learned that alcohol is toxic to every single cell in our body, which would explain why there are so very many health problems that it can cause. And yet they demonize something like marijuana...which is just a plant that grows in the ground that happens to actually be very helpful for a wide variety of health conditions. 😒 It's allll about the money..

[@zheahra]

Water has been a major part of my weight loss. It really helps to increase your water intake. Walking does a body good, too.

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

Yep, vegan sweets will do it!!! They are so good. Sweet tooth hack: make raw desserts using dates, seeds, and nuts + spices. I have a great raw carrot cake recipe and an amazing chocolate mousse on my blog. Nutrient dense sweets that will satisfy that craving and do the body good.

I cut back around 90% of my oil intake, but I still do Not like sauteing veggies in broth. It looks and tastes sad to me. I bought a sprayer and bought some really high quality olive oil (pop your olive oil in the fridge, it should solidify--if not, it's been diluted with canola oil). A little spritz is enough for most things and I have seriously lost so much weight.

[@alliwantisapony8023]

Victoria Hargrove if olive oil had been diluted with canola it would have to be disclosed on the label, that’s the law. Food manufacturers can’t just hide ingredients like that, people with allergies would literally die

[@aricleveland503]

alliwantisapony oh but they do for an example they don’t have to list ingredients that are less than 5%

Thanks for the reminder about the empty calories in OIL. I smother a lot of my cooking in olive oil because its generally promoted as healthy. But its really 120 calories for no reason I am adding to my salad or frying onions etc.... i am sabotaging myself by using oils.

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

Yes, that's something I remind myself of often too. I LOVE oil, but I like tahini and avocado just as much. To increase the fat content of oil-free meals I also like adding toasted seeds or nuts :)

[@AutumnHarvest1]

Suzi Biniecki Oils aren't completely unhealthy. The right ones are high in healthy fats which are great at keeping you full. Look for ones lower in saturated fat. Even eating a high fat fruit like an avocado will help keep binge eating at bay.

[@alliwantisapony8023]

The fat in oils help keep us full, without any fat you’ll be starving all the time. And to properly cook a lot of food you need to use oil, everything is fine in moderation.

[@SarahSigot]

Suzi Biniecki EXACTLY! So easy to go unnoticed! More healthy tips and recipes on my channel ☺️ I am a Chef and personal trainer too!

[@sophiamason1732]

alliwantisapony oil is unhealthy. It’s sad that we are brainwashed to think that we need oil to be healthy. Please don’t confuse oil for healthy fats. Healthy fats are nuts, seeds and avocados. Oil in itself has no nutritional value.

For a somewhat healthy dessert, I like the Freezes from Pressed Juicery. It's basically juice that's frozen and run through a soft serve ice cream machine. It's 40 - 88 calories for 4 ounces.

Drinking alkaline water makes a world of difference, too. I'm not a huge fan of paying extra for water, but it makes a world of difference! Also, flax seed (or grounded flax seed) works well for fibrous diets.

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

I haven't tried it. How does it aid in healthy weight? Yes flax!!

[@Josco31]

As it pertains to weight loss (as alkaline water has a multitude of benefits) is an indirect benefit but a great benefit nonetheless! Alkaline water is often touted as a heartburn reducer, but it also eases many other indigestion problems: when your stomach is sated, you don't eat as much (as you mentioned with drinking water as it reltates to thirst). The added benefit of alkaline water, as relates to weight loss (and to those that may not be a fan of drinking water or have a poor water water quality (despite filtration)) it is very digestible! (Most people don't like drinking pure water, but I couldn't drink it as a kid without it making me sick. I can drink this all the livelong day and those that don't like water seem to enjoy alkaline water) With that, of course, the willing to increase your intake of it, and from that comes a lot of your hydration and energy and loy less compensation in searching for something else to fill that void (aka food). I've dropped 60lbs incorporating it into my life. Coconut water and aloe vera water can also offer these same benefit as well, but coconut water and aloe vera water doesn't have a great shelf life.

[@AutumnHarvest1]

Josco31 Please don't listen to these people about alkaline water. It will make you sick.It's basically a concentration of heavy metals that are toxic. I have hypothyroidism and this claims to fix it, instead it worsened my condition 3 fold. Alkaline water is dangerous and a fad.

[@caseyhughes4669]

violet goodman alkaline water, dangerous??? maybe you are referring to a particular brand/brands whose claims of "alkalinity" were false ? Because those certainly are out there. Alkaline just means the PH levels are above neutral..so...an at home test with PH strips reveal many brands exaggerate their products' PH level. As for heavy metals, I'm not sure what you mean ...true, authentic alkaline water is natural spring water, which contains important minerals for our bodies. I drink (almost exclusively at this point) spring water and personally it has been wonderful ...I just need to drink more throughout the day! When I WAS drinking half my body weight in ounces of spring water everyday, the results were amazing...I was losing weight (AND decreasing body fat percentage) quite effortlessly. I'm just thinking maybe its possible you had negative experiences because of dishonest companies advertising as alkaline when in fact their water wasn't alkaline at all?,

[@caseyhughes4669]

violet goodman your body regulates PH within a very strict range, therefore the water wouldn't be too alkaline...I agree that too acidic or too alkaline is bad but for the body to go into alkalosis is extremely difficult and water Aline cannot cause that because the foods you eat in addition to it determine that...as well as any and everything you put on or into the body. I am sorry your experiences were negative and Its true everyone's different. Have a good night.

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

The 21+ one has more alcohol than normal kombucha. Normal kombucha is so low that kids can drink it too :)

You’re absolutely glowing in every video! You have the most gorgeous complexion 😍

Standing desks are awesome 👏

I hate when people comment things like “I bet you had no weight to lose” like they are complaining, when the reason they got fat was being lazy and eating too much shit 😂 I just hate it when people complain when it’s their fault.

[@mzumno]

You don’t know the back story to someone’s weight gain. What you said is just rude and disrespectful. Yes it’s probably their fault but you don’t tell an alcoholic how stupid he is when he tells you how hard it is either

[@sophiamason1732]

Jane W as a fat person I agree with you.

[@sophiamason1732]

b a m b u s how is what she said disrespectful?

[@sophiamason1732]

b a m b u s no one is calling anyone stupid here just stating facts. If someone has a bad habit then work on it instead of complaining.

Wonderful tips!! I love kombucha but just realized I've been pronouncing it wrong for YEARS 😂😂😂😂

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

I like to bulk food up to stay full and healthy. I’ll add a handful of spinach or a couple handfuls to anything I’m cooking. It cooks down easy and bulks up the meal. It is high in Vit A and folic acid, but it is very few calories. It is pure vitamins and great to bulk up fueling foods.

Can you do a video on intermediate fasting what are your views on this I would really like to know I just subscribed recently and I love your videos keep doing what you do

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

Hey! I don't have any experience doing it. Men have different experiences with intermittent fasting than women. My friend Tay from The Vegan Trainer does it kzbin.info

[@herfirstbornson]

SweetPotatoSoul thank you i followed

[@maika5556]

Where did you learn all this information on foods and a healthy diet? Are there any books that you can recommend on nutrition?

[@xxToninhaxx]

Maika Check out the book “How not to die“ by Dr. Michael Greger.

[@SweetPotatoSoul]

I second the suggestion below for How Not to Die by Dr. Greger. I also am a fan of his website and videos on nutritionfacts.org Also pcrm.org, Eat to Live by Dr. Fuhrman. And lucky me, I have a couple vegan doctor friends who I talk to a lot about this.

[@AutumnHarvest1]

Why does anyone need to have a bibliography ready for you to prove things? It's a video, if you want specific research google some stuff so you can feel better about yourself

[@brittanymstewart]

violet goodman they were just asking where they could find additional information....

[@lellyt2372]

People are just looking for recommendations, they are not asking Jennè to come read it to them 😊

[@SunGODdess9999]

I LOVE THAT KOMBUCHA BRAND I USE THAT ONE TOO

[@jodrew1845]

Great tips to live by. There is one issue that only a person who has had body weight issues in the past will understand which is, eating is not a sport/hobby/passtime. Develope interests, hobbies or participate in activities that allow you to do things other than focusing on eating. That worked for me.
