What I Eat In A Day | Plant-Based Post-MenopauseMarch 2024

I'm so excited to walk you through What I Eat In A Day: March 2024 edition. Now, this isn't what I eat every day, but it's a great approximation for the kinds of foods I make sure I pack into every meal! Be sure to download my Power Foods For Anti-Aging quickly read the description below! For breakfast, I almost always have a smoothie - it literally floods my body with a huge boost of nutrients first thing in the morning. I always shoot for three important macros in my smoothie: complex carbs, whole fats, and healthy plant-based proteins (here's a link to my favorite protein powder: bit.ly/3PxU00X, use the code SOPHIE20 for added discounts at checkout!). If I'm not having a smoothie, I'm going for a grain bowl. For lunch, I'm having a massive salad with fiber, grains, protein, healthy fats ... all the goodies. Dinner, I love a pasta with a plant-protein-boosted marinara and a side of gorgeous veggies.

You are very kind and your compliment means so much to me. Yes - let's do it together!

[@jeanjacobs9965]

Greetings! I just found your channel and subscribed. I'm so happy to find you! I am a vegan with lots of food sensitivities (I have IBS-C) and I need to have very soft or pureed foods. I definitely need some help with my diet. Thank you so much! Love and blessings ♥️🙏

[@lucierancourt2079]

Hi Sophie.....would have love to hear about other dinners beside pasta.....& also if you have some oil free dressing recipes. 😀

[@debc315]

I love it to hear what you preach. I get sosick of the lies of wome m falli g apart in their 40's. I had 6 babies between 32 and my last one at 41. Healthy baby I came home from hospital with my clothes falling off of me. I ran while pregnant, back hitting yhe pavement shortly after birth my chirooractor could not get overmy flat stomach.With 6 pregnancies and deliveries I never had morning sickness, backaches, heartburn syrange cravings or post partum depression. I breastfed all 6 and they were all veryhealthy. My little ones were. fed real tablefood right off my plateGarlic in their greens and beans, I was so happy I had a dirty d I aper to change, we didn't allow them soda or a bunch of sweet junk fir holidays. They drank water and soymilk and they enjoyed it

[@spacetraveller9399]

Lies?? How do you know they lie?? If you have exceptional health it's very arrogant of you to think everyone else has it as well! Everyone has a different body, everyone has a different nervous system and psyche. You are incredibly judgemental 😡

[@Anna-sb9oj]

This makes so much sense. Do you have a protein powder recommendation that’s available on Amazon?

[@micheleutyro4722]

Hi Sophie-am going through menopause and am loving your guidance. For your salad, since you don't use oil, do you use any kind of dressing?

[@elizabethhendriks9030]

Thank you Sophie. Struggling to get into the saddle to loose 20 lbs. 62, used to have your figure. Tired from work at the end of the day and lazy after work. End up eating poorly. Found your channel last night, subscribed and will get in the saddle now. Thank you for the information and inspiration 😊

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

So glad you subscribed. If you need help in dialing everything in, you are welcome to book a Discovery Call with me to see if my program/methodology is a good fit for you go.oncehub.com/SophieUliano

[@elizabethhendriks9030]

@@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen I will remember and keep the link if I struggle to get it together, thank you! Your Gorgeously Grren and The Gorgeously Green Diet book both arrived this past week. I can’t wait to read them and put myself to task. I will cont to tune into your videos. I am so addicted to sugar it’s awful. I don’t have any vices except for that. I once gave it up cold turkey and didn’t eat it for 6 years but once I started back I was right back to the addiction. This week I am detoxing from the sugar and replacing it with berries and meal prepping with vegetables and grains. Thank you again for being so inspiring!

[@Trayln68]

I put organic tofu, as well as orange sweet potatoes, with mango or anything orange in a smoothie, with lots of basil and a dash of ginger. Yum!

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

How delicious!

[@juliegillies6688]

Is the sweet potato cooked?

[@Trayln68]

@@juliegillies6688 yes. But I do often throw in some raw carrots

[@Aneedanothaone]

Well said and I was feeling hungry afterwards 😆 I love my wfpb diet and I’m 61. I’ve been preaching this type of diet to all the women I know for years but they don’t listen😢

[@debc315]

I feel so good eating wfpb , I cannot do soy anymore. The soy attacked my thyroid years ago. I used to love tofi, soymilk, tofupups and tofutti cuties. I am 68 and don't have all the aches and pains and health problems people eating the frankin foods so prevelant in grocery stores. I raised my kids on home cooked foods and theywere hardly ever sick. We didn't give them soda or candy, any snacks they had we made at home

[@patty-cf7jj]

I buy only organic raw sprouted nut butters such as Brazil nut, sunflower seed, pumpkin seed, hempseed, almond, and walnut butters and alternate every morning. (Dastony is a good brand) It may sound weird but I mix a tablespoon of a nut butter with a tablespoon of ground flaxseed and eat it.

[@Elizabeth-dg8dn]

Did I miss the link to the protein powder you like?

[@margaretjohnston7320]

I started to eat only real whole foods. Feeling better each day. A question off topic what color paint is that? I have been trying to find that color paint for eons. Green . But super hard to find that color.

[@amyf2992]

I have been WFPB for about 4 years. Mainly low in oil and doing much if what you preach, however, I have gained back almost all of what I lost when I started as I turned 60. I have tweaked it here and there more then I can say with no budge. I love large salads, variety is my jam as well as tofu. Is this common?

[@JaneNugent03]

15:20 Thank you for your guidance, especially on protein. You commented about your salad that garden peas have “a ton of protein.” The data is that 1 cup of peas has 4g of protein. One egg has 6 grams of protein. 4 oz of chicken has 35g of protein. I write this to question how you get enough protein intake for the day (you say 56g is baseline) on small incremental amounts?

[@user-rv8nj9cw7r]

Obviously she eats a lot of soy products. That's the only way.

[@lanipowell7287]

Great advice. It sounds like you're eating several servings of nuts and seeds a day (2 -3 in each meal plus in a snack). Is that what you recommend?

[@user-tp4pr9wm8h]

Any recommended other than Soy? I am soy sensitive. Could I use coconut milk, water instead

[@lisalowrey2230]

Do you have advice for someone who is not a volume eater? For example, Plantiful Kiki recipes are difficult for me to finish. Thanks! ❤

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Great question - if you don't love eating volume, are you staying "full" and satiated throughout the day? If so, you want to focus on getting adequate protein daily - around 56 grams (depending on your age and activity level) - you may need to go up from there. And make sure you get tons of variety.

[@janicesztabnik5471]

Hi Sophie! Thanks so much for sharing this! Can you review how to make a smoothie correctly? I did this and wonder if this much too much fruit sugar. Do you offer one/one coaching? Very appreciate!

[@luciannedemarco6296]

What color is your nail polish? Lovely!

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Oooh - I'll have to look it up - it's Sparitual.

[@penelope8948]

Do you put anything on your salad bowl…any kind of dressing??

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Yes, I usually use an oil-free dressing. I don't love added oils and tend to keep the fats "whole," so I use lots of seeds, some olives, and a little avocado. I sometimes use a little EVOO, which can be healthy. But I recommend an oil-free dressing for clients who desire to lose belly fat and overall fat and/or are struggling with Type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome.

[@penelope8948]

Thank you! I only recently found you so you may have already done this, but it would be great if you would share recipes for oil free dressing or the bottled dressings you enjoy. Thank you so much for your important education. We all need it!!

[@iveyg2993]

I cannot find soy milk with clean ingredients where I live. What are the ingredients in your soy milk?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Organic soy beans and water only.

[@nannielson6072]

How big a bowl? I see some use a big serving bowl.

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

This is the exact bowl I use www.crateandbarrel.com/marin-meal-bowl/s242588?a=1552&campaignid=18452252533&adgroupid=144675820271&targetid=aud-2095207544852:pla-1656472694622&pla_sku=242588&pcat=HSW&ag=adult&scid=scplp242588&sc_intid=242588&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw5ImwBhBtEiwAFHDZx_6-lBx05TVL6fHkT8LBb5BkOj2FWcO_ADALoPFQWswOTD-inYJZoxoCEKEQAvD_BwE

[@ceeemm1901]

just get a big bowl. Stop procrastinating.

[@MollyVSmurl]

Do you consume brown rice pasta? Why only whole wheat or bean pastas?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

All of the above. I love whole wheat, bean and occasionally Jovial brown rice pasta.

[@Erin60147]

I have been hearing lately you should not blend fruits, raises blood sugar. Should eat the fruit in whole form. Your thoughts?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

Best in whole form, but blending low-sugar berries and other fruits in a smoothie is fine.

[@ACAjc152]

You hair is so lush, but that a British thing, most people from UK have good hair

[@anetagola5985]

How do you manage bloating? If I have big bowl of salad with all wonderful ingridients I am getting a lot of bloating. Maybe its about time to get your body used to to high fibre meals.

[@womanatthewell9603]

I like your meals for the day, but can you please show the photos of the food longer I want to look at it and not just hear about it?

[@SophieUlianoGorgeouslyGreen]

I plan a lot more videos where I will focus on each meal, and show close-ups of the food.

[@finbohannon9581]

And yet…13 years ago you have a video where you say you “are a huge fan of olive oil” and show how to make infused oils. I think the advice is conflicting. I agree with so much of what you say and this is not a criticism as you clearly look very healthy. Have you recently decided or researched the negative sides of oil consumption?. Thank you.

[@reneewalker9611]

I’ve listened to others on you tube that say to take olive oil and coconut oil daily! It gets confusing . But I do belie every Individual is different

[@1ACL]

Are Chickens Genetically Modified? While selectively bred, chickens have not been genetically modified, according to the USDA definition of GMO. It is worth noting that “GMO chicken” can sometimes mean a chicken who is fed GMO crops, not a chicken whose DNA has been modified.

[@judylucz4203]

Of course, as with all American raised/grown foods, ORGANIC is crucial! Most soy in the US is GMO, so you want organic. This is true for all foods. Animal proteins need to be organic, fish, wild caught or you have NO IDEA what has been put in it. You failed to mention this!

[@erikaa.3030]

Does she eat any animal products or just very little?

[@mrsmanzoor]

Just plant based

[@Momousjka]

Hi Sophie, thank you for this lovely video. I have a question: Do you put the seeds into the blender for your smoothies or do you add them once the smoothie is ready? Thanks a lot!
