I don't know why but today Im crying. Crying because you said You realised you had to eat the same way you did to lose.. I use to be fat.. Lost it by getting rid of white stuff. ( sugar flour ect) and 1 year ago we got precancerous polyp news for my hubby. TERRIFIED ME. So we found forks over night and you and WFPB way of eating. But i am struggling to lose the last 10 lbs. or more. I don't know WHAT I should TRULY weigh. But what you said about eating the same way to maintain as you did to lose.. Not eating fruit as a snack because ...well I can eat lots of bananas and rasins too.. so I'm right there with you.. but I GET IT NOW... I'M SO HAPPY TO ACTUALLY get it.. Thank you for being you. honest, real, quirky, and blunt. All of which I get and appreciate...

watching older videos, to help an instructor & counselor out with a workshop , about health & wellness & weigh loss. was my first time watching this one. while eating my huge bowl of sweet spuds , broccoli & brussels sprouts. I haven't used artifical sweeteners for many yrs., but, i did taste a stevia leaf once, in the early 2000;s, yes, it was very sweet.. I finally gave up alcohol, at age 66, even tho for many yrs i had only 1 drink at night, mixed with OJ, i am lucky i wasn't addicted to sodas. sorry to comment so much, well, i guess i did watch this b4, my memory has been injured by breathing in chemicals. take care I been batch cooking all day, back & forth, in & out to the screen room, did some spinning out there while hubby sat in there, after work. 🥔🥦🍠💪👍

[@BBHubbs]

Chef AJ, I recently made your recipe for sweet potato & black bean burgers. Sweet baybuh jesus! They were amazingly delicious!!! I encourage everyone to take the time to make that recipe. I made the mix a couple days in advance, until I had time to bake the patties off. They even freeze beautifully. Thank you, for the greatest veg burger I've had, thus far. Thank you for all of your time, efforts, and generosity. Thank you for sharing your experiences and wisdoms. In short, thank you for being you! ❤️

Hi Nora, I don't know if you found a dressing you like it but if you go to Nutmeg notebook website or blog and search for her Creamy Balsamic Dressing . It is really good. I use only one fourth cup of the balsamic vinegar instead of half cup

Use California Balsamic for dressing. I do not eat avocados too high in fat.

I saw your interview about IBS. I also have IBS and have been following Heather Van Vorous. She has helped me tremendously. I want to go Vegan but according to her book, we should be eating white rice and more soluble fiber. How do you manage your IBS with the insoluble fiber foods (beans) on a Vegan diet?

[@ArtyAntics]

I used to have chronic IBS I found that it was because I wasn’t able to break down fats well so the extra fibre and cutting out oil actually cleared mine up. Beans I had to introduce slowly, I only eat whole grains not white rice. If you struggle with rice you could try quinoa, it’s much lighter on the stomach. Reducing anxiety/stress was also a big factor for me. I really hope you find something that works for you.

Thanks, Chef AJ, for all of the information you share. Have you done an episode on how you prepare healthy meals when you are traveling? I've accepted a new position that requires travel about 50% of the time and my most recent assignment has me away from home for two months. I try to get rooms with a kitchenette, but sometimes all I can get is a small fridge and microwave. If I'm traveling by car I carry my microwave steamer (Tupperware!) and potato baker, some seasonings, knife and cutting board and utensils with me. When I arrive I buy potatoes, veggies, greens, tortillas or wraps and try to carry some home made oil-free hummus when I can. I'd love to hear any additional tips you have, particularly when it involves air travel. I feel like I am carrying so much with me and the small fridge can be a challenge.

@@CHEFAJ thanks. I heard about this vinegar before. What’s so good about this companies? Really less acidity? I’m at true north now AJ! Doing a 14 day fast. I live in oakland - only one hour away. I went to OHI 5 years ago and heard from people there about True Notth. Back then I thought why would I do a water fast when I’m loving this raw foods / juice fast. Now I get the huge benefit of the water fast. Tomorrow will be day day 9 for me. I can’t believe it! I’m enjoying your videos alot. Everyone knows about you here too.

@@katek3680 It just tastes better to people who don't like our vinegar as it's thick and syrupy. You should come to our monthly meetups you are close enough www.meetup.com/healthy-living-in-lincoln-with-chef-aj/

What about dishes that call for coconut milk. Particularly curry or butter (not animal) sauces made with coconut milk in the can.
