what I *actually* eat in a week + vlog ( vegan + real & simple )

[@kelseyreeree1]

Hey, Julia. You probably won't see this, but I just wanted to let you know that I've been really down and depressed, and I recently started watching your videos. You inspired me to come home from work and actually treat myself by cooking a meal instead of searching for the easiest route with as little effort as possible which has not been the best or healthiest option and has just been making me feel even worse. I came home, sauteed some mushrooms, red cabbage, and carrots with BALSAMIC VINEGAR (life-changing😉) and had it on top of a toasted bagel with the best avocado I think I've ever had. I just sat down at my table in front of my window and enjoyed it with some sunshine instead of going to sit in front of the TV and dissociating for the rest of the night. I also went for a walk after dinner and am feeling a lot better. It was all inspired by the light that you're spreading even if you're going through a rough patch. I just want you to know how much positive energy you're spreading because it has made a world of difference for me today which is no small feat. Sending you so much love. Thanks, girl. 💗

[@juliaayers111]

It makes me so happy to know that others are treating themselves with love and respect! And it makes me even happier and grateful to know I can inspire others to do that!☺️ Sending you so much love 🥰💛✨

[@dalewilderness5796]

I just love you. Give me a lot positive thoughts

[@shead7406]

Hi Julia. Enjoy your week

[@ccmuffins2.063]

The women at the drive through coffee place sounded like the friendliest person on the planet lol

[@juliaayers111]

I know!! She was like a sun flower 🥰🌻✨

[@shaniyab6499]

I always get so exited when you post! Hope you’re doing well and sending you soo much love as always!💛💛

[@juliaayers111]

Thank you for your support!! Sending so much love 💛🥰

[@jesaa5046]

You are a lovely soul. I don’t think you understand how much of an inspiration you are. ❤️ keep your head up! Love from El Paso Tx

[@juliaayers111]

Thank you so much, lots of love 💛🥰🙈

[@roshianderson]

Love your videos ♥️ hope you are doing well! Just a reminder You are a very strong and smart woman and I love seeing you embrace your divine feminine energy 💕

[@nina_har]

I really love your videos! They’re so inspiring and really brighten up my day!✨ Greetings from Germany ✨

[@NicoleRoseC]

I have never felt more seen than when Julia looked into the camera and said "you're a little crooked"

[@phillippinter7518]

Over the past few years the vegan community on youtube has been hit with this unhealthy obsession with protein. It's like I can't watch a single video anymore without the advertisement of a high protein product or talk of high protein meals. Yes you need protein but not that much (about 0.8g/kg) in other words people can be get 3x the minimum optimal amount of protien living off whole wheat (or even white flour) beans are healthy for many reasons but being high in protein is not one of them.

[@phillippinter7518]

Every video you make not talking about protein helps

[@cathyn2148]

Is that knife from winners/Marshall’s? I have the same one maybe 😂

[@juliaayers111]

Yes it is!! If you keep on top of sharpening, they will last a long time!!

[@dshamie_]

To me you seem like a really close friend I talk to once a week to stay updated about ones lives. Thank you for reminding me to keep going Julia 🥰☺️ Sending lots of love your way ❤️

[@juliaayers111]

So happy to be your internet friend💛 lots of love and see you soon 😉🥰✨

[@Findthebeauty3]

You are always so inspiring. I love when you talk about nourishing yourself even when you feel bad emotionally. Loved seeing you skate.

[@anitacarter8060]

That’s reality… When you said, that coffee tasted like crap!😂😂😂😂

[@Dirtyhungryhoe]

I’m a 57 yo plant-based Cajun from South Louisiana who just loves you! Wish I’d known about this way of eating when I was your age! Isn’t it strange how most restaurants have no clue how to make tasty plant-based food. Something so simple as a vegetable wrap was bland. CRAZY! Again, I just ❤️ you! Keep up the great work! Love “real” videos!

[@Alice-rc4qo]

Can you be vegan/vegetarian even if you don't like tofu? I love vegan food, but I hate tofu, I tried to cook it in so many ways... It just doesn't work for me

[@HeyAsdfg]

Yeah ofc !! ^^

[@Elena-pq8yp]

For sure :) there’s so many other protein sources: tempeh, seitan, edamame, lentils, chickpeas, all kinds of beans, mock meats, hemp seeds etc

[@gigi-fj4pz]

Put the coffee you don’t use in the freezer so it doesn’t go bad

[@juliaayers111]

Thank you!!

[@AlyssaLa]

Julia, you have me on a matcha KICK! I've started making myself matcha cinnamon lattes and MAN are they delicious. I also have an obsession with those coco balls you gave us the recipe for a while back. I also just ordered some of that soap, it's genius! You're helping me make so many small improvements in my life

[@juliaayers111]

Awe all that made me smile! I’m so damn happy to share and help in any way I can through my content💛 have a beautiful day!!

[@natashalapierre4109]

What kind of workout and it's in a gym? Be careful with the cashews, it containes lots of fat and attacts your liver. Cashews in moderation.

[@margarett_b]

Thank you Julia for always sending so much love out to the world and being such a beautiful soul. Have an amazing week ahead and plenty of reasons to smile!

[@juliaayers111]

Lots of love my friend 💛🥰

[@ladylili8089]

Going out to eat as a vegan is okay sometimes but I wouldn’t willingly be like let’s go out to eat like every week😭

[@MzCAGOMEA]

We have coconut allergies so I make yogurt out of pea milk and then stir it in our curry. It's so good and ceamy.

[@ninamertens2696]

ahh i sooo feel the family dynamic when ur the only plant based person..... when i was 16 and first stepped into this world it destroyed me hearing all the remarks about my diet, even when the comments mean no harm they can get to ya, but my mindset is completely different now and my fam has had had some epic vegan meals and are starting to truly understand and of course have alwayssss been so supportive no matter what, but still living with 3 non plant people i do sometimes just prefer to cook and eat in peace haha. ordering at restaurants can become almost like a fun lil game too ;)

[@maryem9225]

just learnt about tempe from you recently haha. Do you think you like it more than tofu? or that it’s cheaper or like, less maintenance?

[@juliaayers111]

I do really like it! It’s not cheaper however! But it’s fermented so it does have some great health benefits 🥰

[@pesianu]

Knives or blades on the bottom of your skates are what enable you to skate. Under pressure, the melting point of water is lowered, so, your weight is the force and the small blade decreases the surface are and more pressure is exerted on the ice. Then, the melting point of water falls only very slightly, but that is enough to cause the ice under you to melt, allowing you to glide over the ice. As soon as the pressure is removed, the ice refreezes

[@adillaafiani6921]

Hi Julia, how are you doing? I can really feel that you're still processing everything. Recently, i also went through a break up. We got this, Julia. It isn't easy, but we'll get through it. Sending lots of love.

[@mallymakings2853]

Please, please share where your stunning, happy cup to go is from. It’s yellow, it’s flowery and it’s “happy.” I genuinely need this in my life. Xxx

[@juliaayers111]

I actually found it at Marshall’s!! So unfortunately I can’t tell you exactly where to find it 😢

[@KaseyRiversong]

What’s wrong Julia?

[@Elena-pq8yp]

Loved this video as usual 😊 I feel like we’re spoiled for choice in London with vegan options.. I usually have the problem of not knowing where to go 😅 sending love to you Julia and anyone reading this 💕

[@MsLol9985]

Usually I don‘t write comments but I really wanted to tell you that I love your videos! I get really excited when I get the notification for a new one. Hope you have a great day 🥰

[@juliaayers111]

Awe thank you so much for your support 💛🥰

[@tainacosta8526]

I watch your videos almost every day and when I finish one of them, I just get excited to watch another one. Thanks for inspiring me to eat and live healthily and responsibly. Just know that you are amazing. If someday you start thinking of giving up, remember that we love you're "oh it's so pretty" and "it feels SO good".

[@nadja8087]

Hey Julia, I'm glad to see, you are looking like you are in a better mood. Like you said on your Instagram, it's not necessary to be sad for 6 months! That's exactly why you are doing all the work, to don't get into spiraling if something happens in your life or someone breaks your trust. I love all of your videos and consider you one of my friends! Much love ❤️

[@Winggggz]

I just found this channel and your what I eat videos are so fun to watch😭❤️

[@hannahrose9062]

i'm really grateful for your content, i hope you're feeling okay

[@erinpad6094]

Love your videos! Always inspired to eat cleaner and cook more after I watch. 💕 I would love to see a grocery haul for a suggested grocery list!

[@evag6652]

id love to see you try make vegan fresh pasta i.e. without the egg yolk!

[@margarett_b]

1:53 halved grapes are 1000x better. Definitely worth the extra time

[@amandarondina18]

youre the sweetest

[@poppycalliope]

Giiirl I feel so hungry after this video! This is food heaven 😂💕🔥

[@eriaspirig499]

i love your videos so much it always makes my day when you post a video! ❤️🥰and i can 100% relate with the fact that you prefer cooking at home than eating out, it just is better

[@rafaellalentz]

She just realizing that skates are shoes with knifes is the best scene of this video

[@amandalipton1014]

I just came across your channel this morning so I will be bingeing the rest of the week LOL Its nice to see someone I have things in common with as I am also from Canada and the only vegan in the family. I also prefer just to cook my food at home, most restaurants where I live don't even have vegan options. Your videos are put together very well and I look forward to more meal ideas!

[@rubymcgowan1319]

My favorite KZbinr! I love how you show such balance in your life and eating. Also how you advocate self care so much. :)

[@ninamertens2696]

love ya thanks for the video...

[@margarett_b]

Thanks for introducing me to The Earthling co! I am a part of an initiative aiming to create a global map of ethical and sustainable brands (including online ones) and this is definitely a brand we'll be adding to our database. I love when conscious companies get to support such wonderful content creators (and human beings!) as you

[@xiao3185]

I wish I was so happy and positive every single day. I have a personality disorder and I try my best but I end up a crab everyday. I just wish I was different and you.

[@zustuf]

[@juliaayers111]

[@aloraegan8834]

Lol the struggle of eating out with non vegans. I just came home from an all inclusive resort in Mexico and I ordered veggie fajitas no meat and the waiter looked at me like I had three heads 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@jennica7101]

i've been on a journey towards a fully plant-based diet for a couple years now, but your videos have helped me so much with feeling less scared to experiment and just have fun with cooking. i used to hate cooking and avoided whole foods to avoid prep - now i look forward to chopping up my veggies and making each meal. also, my overeating has gotten under control thanks to your "intuitive" approach, and i just appreciate that so, so much. thank you for sharing your bright outlook on life, food, and taking care of yourself ♥♥

[@CinematicBelle]

Love your videos! Been watching for a while nice to see a Canadian KZbinr who lives in the same city as I do! Also where is that antique store would love to visit this weekend!

[@brittanyrossi8662]

❤️

[@hollyross8900]

I always ♥️ it when you notication comes up on my phone that you've posted a new video. I totally agree with you that cooking at home especially plant based options always more favourable than take out..

[@amandarivera5145]

your videos are so inspiring! i'm currently on a journey to heal my relationship with food, as well as starting to eat more plant based, and your content has been so helpful ❣️

[@levinthewild]

haha ok best quote of the day " salt your pasta water so it tastes like the ocean" I LOVE IT!!!!

[@anristenden8287]

I needed this video so much today, I have been feeling incredibly demotivated, anxious, stressed about even eating anything and really just not in love with myself. And now, just with the gentle sound of your voice and your compassion and optimism, I feel a teeny bit better. Please never stop!

[@patriciad.5941]

The pasta recipe looks delicious 🤤🥵

[@juliaayers111]

Hope you can try it 🤤🙌🏻
