What I Eat In A Day To Lose Weight (Day 1)

[@katie4623]

This is the most realistic and healthy what I eat in a day video I've ever seen. Most of the other videos on KZbin show unrealistically small portions.

[@LiezlJayne]

Thanks :) It's because I'm sharing how I really eat in real life - what I actually eat in a day :)

[@yeseniasolis4042]

+Liezl Jayne Strydom thanks for the 3 day recipe, just downloaded. NEW SUBSCRIBER

[@LiezlJayne]

You're so welcome! Hope you enjoy using the eating plan and recipes included! :)

[@tosikuai]

K Lu and

[@jnnlis]

You're a great role model for girls. All about HEALTHY weight loss. Well done.

[@-carly9477]

jnnlis I agree but life is not about weight loss you should said about being confident in your body

[@jnnlis]

SimplyGothic MSP don't twist my words around to fit your agenda. Thank you.

[@franksinatra92]

jnnlis no she is not a good role model AT ALL!!!!!!! Because she is promoting fish and cow milk and honey ect. She's not promoting a high carb low fat vegan lifestyle

[@abenaashiagbor8515]

Kpop For life not everyone wants to be vegan yr the type of person that wants everyone to be vegan and if someone isn't u get mad u should just stop

[@anyamelissa3006]

Kpop For life oh my god shut up, not everyone has to be fucking vegan! Fuck off!

[@christiana1137]

I love the fact that you actually recommend eating good meals when losing weight.. some girls be like so breakfast is coffee lunch a salad made of 1 leaf and half a tomato and dinner a smoothie.. oh and 2 hours of workout. love your channel

[@LiezlJayne]

Hahaha, thankyou! Yes, lol I'd be too hungry to do anything productive if I ate like that! I like my food a lot :)

[@HollyBlossom]

Christiana Popovici this is so true

[@mystelwinters1942]

You really do need to eat well if you want to lose weight! If you eat too few calories, you will end up damaging your body in the long run; you will feel exhausted and tired, your metabolism could drop, and you might even experience organ dysfunction. That's not to scare anybody, but you really do have to work WITH your body to be healthy, not AGAINST it.

[@alexanderpersinger7074]

White Okay kzbin.infoUgkx6K7NWahp9y3ir1gVAwysOCHOOPSnWZbw . I got it from my browser's history. I know that it's really frustrating to be over-weighted but all is possible with a strong determination. Good luck…..

[@DisMavvy]

I love it that you don't starve yourself, even when losing weight. Gonna be definitely trying these veggie recipes 💚

[@Vera-wg7np]

Simona E. It's not all veggie but go on

[@theinvisiblegirl2501]

damn chill, they're obviously not referring to everything in the video.

[@imerimaldonado8685]

Barbora Gadlinova smart ass

[@DisMavvy]

oh, wow. really didn't think to get any of these. I'm vegan and that's why I pointed out only those veggie recipes. And actually, even if I wouldn't be vegan, why the hell turn a positive comment to hateful? that's why vegan community gets so much hate. because people like you are angry at everything that's not vegan. Be friendly and others will respond the same... Amen...

[@babygirl-oz3cg]

Simona E. right? People can turn anything into something negative... thank you for being positive though. You're very inspiring 😊

[@Carmeaning2Say]

Never seen this channel before, but I really thought it was super realistic and doable. I loved the editing, content, and the camera set up. New Sub!!!

This is the first video of yours I've seen, and the editing was so gorgeous not to mention the content. You've got a new subscriber!! xoxo

[@LiezlJayne]

Thank you! You're so sweet :)

[@joannakoter9159]

The porridge looks GOOOOORGEOUS.

[@pobalex]

"I like to keep lunch as easy and simple as possible"... *puts 11 ingredients on the table* lol it made me laugh, but your videos are awesome and really helpful!

[@suryalua]

Also laughed so fkn hard lol

[@kanghayan9004]

I love how you actually EAT. It's all about being balanced, and it's so much more healthy than other what I eat in a day videos. Thank you for being such a good role model to all the young people watching!

[@TessahNoreen]

FOOD IS FUEL This was awesome, healthy and very realistic. I think the portions were perfect and I liked that you said that you take about 20 mins to eat - that's a really important detail - that you need to eat slowly. I've personally been focusing on making sure I take my time to eat and chew my food thoroughly so I don't over eat and so digesting is easier. Thanks for adding how many calories you typically consume to lose wight. Great video, I loved the oatmeal recipe, excited to try that.

[@bronwyndiane421]

It's really refreshing to see a South African face on KZbin 💕 You go Liezl! xx

[@furdedezee]

Youre the reason why i decided to start eating healthy! Its been about 2 weeks now and i dont feel like im suffering and i actually look forward to eating healthy :) Ive been visiting your channel almost every day because i love your recipes :) I already lost 4 kg of eating good whole foods instead of my previous “diet” meal plans so thank you

[@SherryandNatasha]

oh my word, pleasee please post more frequently. this was so amazing, practical, filling, and healthy!

[@LiezlJayne]

More coming so soon! :)

[@LiezlJayne]

Sherry Roohi Just posted my new video! :) Here is a link for you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iprCd615fbCbbK8

[@SherryandNatasha]

thank you so much! can't wait to do this workout tonight. also, just showed my roomies the what I eat in a day...you've got some new fans! can't wait for more! much love from cali!

[@vivienjohnson7680]

I am in love with this! Everything is super realistic and well portioned, and I love that you actually eat instead of starving yourself like other girls tend to do. I tried every single recipe in this and I can't tell you how happy I am. I'm totally sharing this with my friends!

[@mystelwinters1942]

I am literally addicted to watching all your recipe videos: love your tips, your voiceovers, your recipes, the music... You inspire me to get out the pots and pans and cook!

[@tylerisnothome21]

It's great to see a South African doing well like this!

[@Pinkkittenpaw]

The food looked amazing, but I cannot imagine it all coming under 1300 calories! With the oats, the quinoa, and the different fats you used. I mean, all of these ingredients are healthy, and good for you, but still have a substantial amount of calories

[@LiezlJayne]

I give a full calorie breakdown of the calories that I consumed on my blog - I have measured out all of these foods (1/2 cup cooked quinoa, 1/2 cup dry oats, 1 flat teaspoon coconut oil, etc). I was at 1400 calories for that day, because I had the snack too. If I didn't have the snack, I would have been at about 1200 cal. I don't have a snack every day if I am trying to lose weight - only if I have been more active than usual. Here is the full breakdown for you on my blog: liezljayne.com/video-what-i-eat-in-a-day-to-lose-weight-day-1/

[@MsCubefist]

That's bullshit. Let's look at the lunch. The estimated calory intake in that is 400-450. The walnuts are aproximately 100 kcal. The tblsp of olive oil is 120 kcal. The avocado has around 110 kcal. Cranberries, 24 kcal in each tblspn. Quinoa, another 90 kcal, aproximately. We are already at 444 kcals (if you only have ONE tablespoon if cranberries, that is). Add the veggies, the undefined roasted vegetables (unclear if roasted in oil or not) and you are way over 450 kcals. Problematic is also that most people underestimate their kcal intake because of bad measurements. Oftentimes it is even higher than we have calculated anyways.

[@BergenholtzChannel]

Let me start by saying that I love your posts. I love the way you don't vilify any type of food, but instead look at portions. With that said, I did look at the calorie count for the portions you listed and they actually came out to be 462 for the breakfast, 730 for the lunch, 168 for the snack and, if you use a half cup of each of the vegetables, 400 for dinner, for a total of 1760 total.

[@sma4030]

am I the only person who needs to put a ton of honey or maple syrup into my oats in order to be able to eat them,,,,,I honestly can't believe that theres people out there who eat unsweetened oatmeal

[@heyimbarbara2494]

I actually eat my oats unsweetened haha

[@Sylphadora]

Cinnamon and vanilla powder are also great sweeteners 😉 You could also try stevia

[@emmaharvey7410]

I very rarely ever add any kind of sweetener to my oatmeal, I'll have fruit with it and on a special occasion a few pieces of very dark chocolate because I just love oats XD

[@Sarah-gf8su]

I find fruit enough sweetness for me

[@memoriaedanae9194]

I could eat bowls and bowls of porridge simply cooked with water - I think it's my brain loving the carbs 😂

[@angiemaria11205]

I love your voice. It's soothing, not annoying. And most of all, I love the meals you've shared in this video. I appreciate you.

[@jailanh.4877]

This video inspired me to start eating healthier , just the kind of motivation i needed for the morning to start my day. So realistic and healthy! thanks

[@RoHeart01]

people like u honestly makes me proud to be south african.......subscribed.......love ur content

[@alessiatroisi828]

your voice is so relaxing! I loved this video

[@courtneyfleischman2338]

This has easily become one of my favorite channels. I love your real food recipes for weight loss!!

[@mayarose8256]

Loved how realistic this was. You're clearly not starving yourself to lose weight and I love that you try to incorporate fats, proteins and carbs into your meals in different forms rather than just having iceberg lettuce and tuna everyday

[@barbarasanchez.andleo]

1300 calories a day it is starvation !

[@CarlyRowena]

Love how you edited this! xxx

[@LiezlJayne]

Thanks :) XO

[@Themiamimommy]

I love the way you edit your food videos. So crisp & clean! And your voice is so soothing 😂

[@Sylphadora]

That looks more like a maintenance than a weight-loss eating plan. Is that really less than 1,300 cals? Amazing! 👍🏻 The portions are big enough to feel satisfied and your meals are balanced and look incredible. I love the variety and colour.

I love this what I eat in a day. It looks so do able and filling. Other youtubers I've seen look like they starve themselves and I think to myself there's no way this is enough food.

Wow I cannot believe how much healthy stuff you can eat and still lose weight !! Gosh this really is very inspirational !

[@KysDawn]

this filming and editing is spot on!!

[@sammybelove]

Looks delicious!! Love that two of your meals are vegan! Try to add your black pepper after cooking instead, it becomes carcinogenic when heated up

[@ladybadass6588]

it really is SO helpful to see what people who have had successful weight loss eat in a day

[@thesuperparrot]

I love that you made a side comment that's it's okay for guys to have a little bigger portions. Most diet and meal plan vids are directed towards women and teen girls so it's good to finally find one that's realistic and do-able for guys

I am going to give some of these a try. Having trouble making sure my preteen daughter is eating well, and wanting to set a good example and make sure she eats in the morning. I feel like she would really like, and could even make a lot of these recipes.

[@judithyue971]

hey more of such video please!!!. urs is literally practical.

[@mariebishop]

Its always difficult to lose weight, but the similar formula is eat less do more. I am not following any diet. And I have lost 85 lbs in a year. It may not be the rapid loss that the more unhealthy diets result in, but I am happy with that. I still have 49 lbs to go and I am loving the weight loss community on KZbin. I never thought to look here, now I am so glad i did. If you would like to sub to a normal woman in her 40's who is fumbling along the weightloss journey I would LOVE to have you. Awesome video BTW. :)

[@telmix87]

I have lost 7Kg since January since I started a healthy lifestyle and that's all thanks to you and your videos about food, exercise, and just lifestyle in general! THANKS!! PS: Please post these for men! Or for you both! I want my husband to join just like you do!

[@yasmineberjawi7173]

Please make more videos like this, these are my favourite videos on your channel💗

[@tanairigonzalez1455]

Do you know about what percentage of fat you'd have in a day? You seem to incorporate healthy fats more often that those who say they're trying to lose weight are. Is it to help keep you fuller longer and in turn eat less throughout the day? Thanks for the lovely video!

[@LiezlJayne]

Yes as Bron said, it's so important to have healthy fats in your diet whether you are trying to lose weight or not. They do definitely help to keep you fuller for longer (even small amounts) which is great, but they're so important for maintaining the health of the brain and other vital organs. I don't measure out percentages. I just try to add some to every meal - either 1 flat teaspoon of coconut oil with oatmeal, or 1 teaspoon olive oil in a salad, or 1/3 avocado with lunch. Fats are higher in calories than carbs and protein, so I eat in moderation - but they are still so important!

[@tanairigonzalez1455]

Liezl Jayne Strydom Thank you for your detailed answer and for examples. Those definitely seem like reasonable amount of fats to incorporate. :)
