Your pita pizzas look appetizing & love the salad container

I linked the salad container in my description box, its on amazon!! and those pitas were SO good!

[@amyversprille4687]

Love it! Would love more budget content

[@melissamacdonald3834]

I never even thought to put laughing cow cheese on the bottom of a pizza, genius! That salad container is neat. Where did you get it from?

[@im_LaurenHays]

It’s from Amazon!! I have it linked in my description box!❤️

[@Michellebbarton]

I absolutely love your energy and your videos! Sending all the love and hugs from Seattle! 🥰

Thank you so so much Michelle!! Lots of love from Texas!!

[@chellea007]

You're really making me want to try imperfect foods, everything you're showing looks so good.

[@im_LaurenHays]

I’ve seen it for years on KZbin but was like yeah no I don’t need to spend money on that but truly it’s been saving me money so far! I’ve found so many favorites from them that I’m definitely going to continue it even after the $20 off 4 boxes promo ends for me!!

Great video!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Thank you so much Amy!!

[@elizabethgibbons8936]

Morgan holding up a piece of sausage after you showed the mozzarella bag was my fave 🤣

[@im_LaurenHays]

He understood the assignment 😂

[@makalamorrow846]

The caramel used to be nasty to me. Now something changed with me & I love it. I don’t do caffeine so I get a decaf shot of espresso and put the caramel premier protein in it. So good

[@ORD1111]

Great salad bowl! Do u have a link?

[@im_LaurenHays]

Yes! here you go: amzn.to/3t2KJ6B

[@veronicacanisalez9519]

Hi girly I absolutely love these types of videos. Your pita pizza looked delish and Morgan with his 1slice of tomatoe lol omg. That would be me. Can’t wait t see your next Vlog 🙌🏼

[@im_LaurenHays]

Thank you so much girl!! We love those pizzas!

[@Sherimichelle711]

Loved the video!! I'm loving wraps mostly for my lunches with Carb Balance tortilla and tuna or blackened chicken strips with some cucumber on the side and ranch or tzatziki sauce. Also, I would love if you have content on budgeting!!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Thank you Sheri!! Oooo those wraps sound great I need to do that soon!! Budgeting content for sure coming soon! Let me know if you have any specific budgeting videos you like, its still new to me but I was thinking a monthly budget recap or something!!

[@bharrin777]

Are those chicken sausages pre-cooked? I guess they prob are if you only have to cook the pizza 8 minutes. They looked so good! Btw, I thought it was you that got me started on the Equate version of Premier Protein caramel shake. I still love it.

[@im_LaurenHays]

Yes they are pre-cooked! Sorry I should have specified lol!!

[@dianedraveski6485]

YUMMMOOOOOOOO! ohmy great ideas Im adding to my to list!!!!! Salivating in michigan where its -12 degrees--- major sherpa time! Thank you this was a rockin video!!!!!!!!! I lovvve your wooden snack bowls Ka-uuuute!!!!!!!!😀😀😀

[@marlajames2376]

I have been seeing a recipe on FB where people are using spaghetti squash to make a pizza crust. Innnnnnnteresting 😀. Good video! Hope you had a great Christmas and a very nice time in Shreveport!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oh thats a cool idea!! Thank you so much!

[@felicianunez7662]

I really love doing pizzas on portobello mushrooms

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oooo yes I need to do that!! Morgan hates mushroom but he can have a pita!

[@chellrockk5646]

Totally loving your videos girl! You’ve inspired me meal prep, eat better overall, and love how you’re also focusing on budgeting this year! Looking forward to more of your content. Also love me some thrifting!! Cute finds!☺️

[@im_LaurenHays]

Yay! Thank you so much Chely!! I am excited to share some budgeting content and more meal preps and easy meal ideas this year! So happy you're here to join me!

[@dianawhite7443]

Great video! I heard you mention you don’t have a gall bladder, so that perked my attention since I had mine removed a year ago this month. Did you find recipes or foods that are easier to digest? I love cheese and find it so hard to get used to fat free items.

[@im_LaurenHays]

I just aim to avoid excess amounts of fat and usually I'm okay!

[@lisaruttenberg5886]

Wow. Didn't realize Texas tempd get that low. cute sherpa coat.

[@im_LaurenHays]

It’s not often! It was in the 20s on Monday morning ❄️🥶

[@hajaladyluck5523]

Yay to your parents for the espresso machine because I have one and it is amazing. The pods cost a little more but are worth it. I get mines at bed bath beyond with their coupons. When I’m lazy, just get the variety from Amazon

[@im_LaurenHays]

Thanks for the tips! I will definitely do that!

[@marygeiselbrecher8129]

Everything looked so good. I’m liking the 5days at 1650 and 2 days at 1800. I did that when I counted WW points, I would allow myself a higher point weekend and it worked for me. I didn’t feel deprived. And that salad looked so good, I just love a chopped salad. I’m really wanting to get back to meal prepping my lunches for work. I’ve gotten in the habit of grabbing a protein bar and a half serving of almonds for my work lunches. Eat at my desk food. Time to get re focused and get back to my healthy meal preps. Thanks for the motivation. Have a good evening! 🤗

[@im_LaurenHays]

I am really excited to try the 5 days at 1650 and 2 at 1800!! I mean whats not to like right?! lol! I eat at my desk most days as well so I feel you on that- not very exciting! I will have more meal prep inspo to come that will work for our desks!

[@kkelley16]

You had me wanting to try Imperfect Foods and unfortunately, they do not deliver in my area. Bummer. Love the video though and would also love to see the budgeting content if you choose to post any!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oh darn Kayla!! Maybe look into Misfit Foods? I havent tried it but its the same idea I think, I believe MiRanda at Running on Plants has a code for them! Let me know if you need it and I can help you find it!

[@kkelley16]

@@im_LaurenHays Misfit Foods does offer to my area! I had never heard of them before, so thank you!

Hey Louise ❤️! I respect how dedicated and patient you work on your weight loss journey! Keep up the good work! New friend to your channel! Let's us get grow faster!

Big like for such an incredible recipe. 💕Stay Blessed and stay connected 💕

[@SRejmini]

I literally had no idea what to make for dinner and now I am making pita pizza's tonight they looked so good and I actually have most of the ingredients to make them!!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Woohoo!!! Honestly those pita pizzas and lavash flatbreads have been one of our repeat weeknight dinners lately!!

[@miriahamolins8209]

Sorry if I somehow missed but what cheese did you spread for the "sauce" on your pita pizzas?? Thanks!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oh sorry we used the laughing cow cheese wedges!!🙌🏼

[@erinf4712]

I love all of the videos- your honesty is refreshing and inspiring. Gained 30 pounds since the loss of my mom in 2018 and it is time to reset. Getting great tips and tricks here. Which Laughing Cow cheese are you using on your pita pizzas?

[@im_LaurenHays]

Thank you so much Erin! I am so sorry about your mom, definitely one of the toughest losses we face in life. Sending you lots of love! I used the light one or the white cheddar (I have both and cant remember but it was 30 calories per wedge!) and Morgan used the spicy pepper jack one!

[@wendyschiavone]

Hey girl Happy New Year 🎉 that sucks they don't deliver to New Hampshire..

[@im_LaurenHays]

Happy New Year Wendy!! Oh no I'm so sorry! I hope they make it up there soon!! Maybe check misfit foods? I think Miranda at Running on Plants uses them and they might ship to you! Similar service!

Omg same, when it wouldn’t focus. Lmaooooo

[@melissasnyder5268]

We ordered Imperfect Foods but there was blood inside the box from one of the chicken thighs. Anyway, I got an email from them last night that they are no longer delivering to my area….if you ever see the Chilean Sea Bass…..SO good.

[@im_LaurenHays]

Was one of the packages open? I get poultry from them almost every time and mine are frozen in vacuum sealed pouches! That is a huge bummer sorry that happened to you!

[@2pagesatatime]

I adore you! Thank you so so much for letting us know what you paid for your Imperfect box. I don't understand why no one else does that. Leave it to you to do the right thing.😉

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oh how weird!!!! Yes I’ll always share the prices!!😍👏🏼

[@susanluksetic977]

What app do you use to track

[@im_LaurenHays]

I use the Lose It app!

[@kimcalvery9764]

Imperfect Foods is awesome! Customer service is excellent. I got some bad produce once, and they credited my account no questions asked. We like to get the flatbread for pizza.

[@im_LaurenHays]

That’s amazing to hear!! I had a few items not arrive in my box and they gave me back the credit👏🏼😍🙌🏼

[@mrssarahe7893]

I feel like I'm watching you unbox my Imperfect order, lots of the same items 😂. And that cinnamon roll creamer is great!!

[@im_LaurenHays]

Hahahaha glad we’re on the same page!!😍🙌🏼😂

[@gwendolyngraham5546]

Do you ladies feel like everything is cold enough when you receive it? I’m worries about food safety temperatures 🤢

[@mrssarahe7893]

They package it really well, I've never had a problem with the temperature of the items. I also have been buying eggs from them the past few months and have not *yet* had any broken. 😀 They definitely put care into the packaging.

[@im_LaurenHays]

@@gwendolyngraham5546 I just got a new box today and my chicken and ground turkey were still frozen, everything is super cold and fresh! They have a heavy duty bag they deal with cold items inside and a great ice pack! And they text you right as your package arrives to your door, mine usually comes around 1pm and I get home at 5pm and it’s still perfect every time! (Also note I’m 100% only a customer and have never worked with or been affiliated with them, this is my honest experience!)❤️❤️

[@gwendolyngraham5546]

@@im_LaurenHays Thank you very much!

Need allllll the details on your nespresso. I want one but don’t know which one or which pods to get. All I’ve ever had is a keurig and I’m just over it.

[@im_LaurenHays]

I linked my Nespresso in the description box just a minute ago! It’s called the vertuo next! Mine came with a sample pack of like 12 pods and all different coffees, espressos and flavored coffees! So far I love the double espresso chiaro with the protein shake! Also the bianco forte is a GREAT coffee!

[@anitamorin243]

Any way you can get a link for the expresso machine you got? Want it!! Lol

[@im_LaurenHays]

Oh yes I can!! Check my description box in like 5 minutes 😂

[@rachand007]

The toppings on your pizza looked so good. Will have to give them a try soon. I also got a Nespresso for Christmas. Loving it so far!! And yes girl! It's freezing in Texas! Tomorrow in the 20s! Firelog time!

Hello sweetie are you returning soon

[@coletted4591]

I literally just bought the exact same Amy’s chili and…👎🏾would definitely not recommend it at all! I tried to doctor it up to give some flavor but😩nope it’s a fail for me.

[@im_LaurenHays]

Totally feel you Colette!! I made it through but definitely was not a big fan!! Didnt really taste anything like Chili LOL!

[@emilys9149]

One time I ordered 2 spaghetti squashes from imperfect foods and they sent me FOUR. thank goodness they last forever!
