Also, you’re my favorite voice in the world of plant based weight loss, mostly because you don’t portray some kind of perfect life.

[@ChelseaMae]

Aw that means so much that you can feel that from my videos! What a sweet comment!

[@samanthabrown7811]

I absolutely love your videos!!! I love how you break things down and explain the “Why” and “How” behind things!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!!

[@74griffo]

Agreed! The podcast is fantastic too 🙌🏼

[@kimporter953]

I completely agree, Samantha! 💚

[@ChelseaMae]

It means so much to me that you get so much out of my content!

[@alwayswfpb]

Chels, home for six weeks more, rehabbing total knee replacement 1/17/22…your videos are so special…I’m finally able to drive…and stand and prep without pain…starting to make bowls like you! (In weight loss mode) The brilliant colors of your bowls make for some exciting eating! My Lulu always comes running when she hears the carrots begin to be peeled. 💚💚💚

[@ChelseaMae]

Aww I love hearing how much you are enjoying these and how you are finally able to start your journey!

[@lynnwalker]

The brunch looks so amazing! I haven't had tomatoes that look that good unless I've grown them myself. Thanks for all the knowledge sharing. I really love the day in the life style videos but this is a nice balance.

[@ChelseaMae]

Aww thank you so much!

[@rebeccatyson9952]

Chelsea, you and your videos are so so valuable!! I appreciate all the time and effort you put into teaching and empowering us! Thank you!!!

[@jocelynfoley6201]

Loving your summer glow! Looking forward to warmer weather!

[@christinecasson361]

I love watching what you eat in a day for where you are at right now. I also love watching you make recipes for weight loss.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Love 😍 Chelsea's what she ate during the weekend video. It's great to see something beautiful during these difficult times especially for those in Ukraine. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕❤️ Chelsea and her beautiful family.

[@AmyLeffler1]

I love how supportive your husband is. I wish I could get mine to eat more veggies. He is a meat lover for sure. All your veggies look so vibrant. The big bags of avocado and tomatoes would be so expensive for me.

[@shelleyhill6911]

Me too. Especially the avocados. I'm in Canada and they are 3$ each!

[@julietraywick831]

You are so incredibly inspiring! I can’t thank you enough for these videos! You have helped me to lose 36 pounds so far!! You are such a blessing. Thank you. ❤️

[@melanieg284]

Love your videos and being real! Please share how you stopped desserts! I feel like I need dessert after every lunch snd dinner!

[@joeygames_5]

Yes, this was very helpful. I struggle with the weekend and I didn't realize how much until you started to explain it 🙃 Just got some gluten free pizza crust flour today to make home made pizza with tons of veggies and a potato cashew cheese sauce this weekend

[@lou5250]

Definitely gonna try ur brunch idea next weekend. Looks soooo tasty and filling. Great to have a healthy recipe that mite keep me on a healthy path for the weekend!

I love your videos and I trust you and appreciate the science behind the weight loss. You are so wonderful. Thank you for the information and for sharing your world with me. ❤

Your videos are very encouraging. I love how you explain everything. I need to get back running trails. I've gained about 30 pounds the last 2 years during the pandemic. Much love to you!

[@elizabethlancaster1844]

Always love how you keep it real! I would like to see your physic updates from running! Love you and your videos!❤️

Another great and informative video, those potatoes with your brunch looked PERFECT!!! Also your eyes looked especially blue and beautiful in this video 💙

[@sheri_LA_native]

Another great video! Thank you for the discussion at the end about where you are in your health journey. I can see the difference between meals that help people maintain their weight loss and meal that promote weight loss. I look forward to that creamy pasta once I drop a few lbs. :))

[@deborahcouzens4877]

Love the whole video Chels...delicious meals and love the way you articulate. Brilliant teacher thanks and keep cool there in NZ ( my sister also lives there 😀)

[@colletteringie1142]

If I could subscribe twice I would. You have really broken down the concept and the details of nutrition density and calorie deficit, finally able to apply these concepts to our way of eating and food preferences, now noticing weight loss with contentment. I rewatch some videos not only for the information but the inspiration. Thanks so much,

[@lizzzarduh]

I looooooooooooooove your what I eat in a days!!!! Thank you thank you 🙏

You should write a cookbook, your food is gorgeous.

Great content! 🙂Thx for sharing 😊

I hear you re. a cafe brunch - so hard to find good options. We do a home one too and it’s perfect - you can have what you want, you know what’s in it and you always feel full 🌟

[@kerlyanno9450]

Hi Chelsea! Im very new to the vegan eating lifestyle honestly I love it so far. I have always enjoyed veggies. I am over weight at the moment and I am so happy I found your channel. Your realistic in you life and I appreciate that as a mom of 2 kids that i homeschool I was worried this would be too difficult. Also I am the only vegan in the house 😅. I have watched some of your other videos and I'm grateful your sharing your knowledge about caloric density. Thanks lady!!😁

[@stacyebrim9702]

Everything looks delicious!

[@sophierob5309]

Day 1 tested positive for covid. This is the week I'm going to make my meals (everything I eat is reheated packaged meals). So pleased to land on this video as I'm just going to recreate it all. Blessed to have a kiwi vegan with starch solution vibes. To be able to purchase all these ingredients makes it more achievable

[@eggplayer56]

I have a question about your basil storage. Do you put the continents the fridge or do you leave it out on the counter? Love your videos! So inspiring! Your girls are adorable.

[@Camelliavintage]

Those little sprouts look like sunflower sprouts. :) Thanks for the video!!!

[@paris08141]

All that food looks so good. I use the instant pot to bake my potatoes for the week. So quick and easy. Then I air fry them throughout the week. I could eat potatoes for every meal. ☺️

[@bobbijothiering8051]

Chelsea, I always look forward to your videos and the knowledge that you share. I have been at a plateau and I think it's because I have been eating at my maintenance. I also started a challenge this month, I have a Hydrow rowing machine and I am doing a 10K a day challenge. I need to make a shift in my calorie intake to get the scale moving again. Thank you!!!

Bobbi! Love hearing you self assess what your next steps could be! Have you thought about joining the program I run?

If you pour boiling water over cut potatoes (like cut into fries) and set it for 5-10 minutes, then drain and dry them, you can make some epic fries in the air fryer. Quicker than steaming....I think...You could probably do the same for just the cut in half potatoes

[@claretan3309]

Adore your videos! As a Brit who now lives in NZ would love to know where you get some of your groceries. I used to get everything all year round in the UK but learned to shop seasonally in NZ, there’s no alternative. I couldn’t believe it when we first went 3 months with no avos or no strawberries!

[@debbieuronis3779]

Good food. Oh, those girls!!! Love the girls because I had 3 boys. (love them too) But your girls faces just make my day!!!

[@catfish9539]

Lol literally eating broccoli and potatoes as my Friday treat! That’s one of our families favourite breakfast, even my animal eating partner will eat it.

CHels, you looked really beautiful w your hair up and glasses. I hope you take this as the compliment it's intended. It shows your face so lovely with your hair up. 😍

[@dalaniekolakowski181]

Thank you Chelsea ❤️ Your videos are super helpful & keep me on track & give me great food ideas. U might have already done a video on this.....I would be interested in a "plateau weight loss video". How long did u plateau & how much did u go on to loss/ what did u change to loss it. 😘

Idk if theres a video, but im sure theres a podcast on that 😃 its called lean with plants and it says plateau on the title hehe 😅

[@rwheeler4156]

I keep seeing roasted tomatoes recently. I think this is a sign to try them. I love tomatoes but I have never eaten them roasted on their own, (pizza and what have you).

[@Nina-ld5qe]

With the Tofu you could put some more finely chopped veggies in the pan, like Bell pepper etc. Then it will come closer to a 50/50 plate :)

[@outdoorsmom2000]

Your "old fashioned steamer" I thought was a pasta pot. I see them at yard sales often and pass them up thinking, I don't need this.... but using it as a steamer, that's awesome! I haven't tried scrambled tofu but I bought some to try it. I don't measure much while I cook either ; )

[@outdoorsmom2000]

Your "outro" was very inspirational, thank you!

[@sarahslife6781]

Hi, loving your videos! I was wondering which air fryer you have?

[@ashleymcdaniel6188]

New to your channel :) love it! Have your kids grown up plant based? Or did you have to covert their diet as well? We’re planning a family im newly plant based since March and love it this life style husband is half plant based. I love the nutrients of this life style, and the thought of them not being introduced to the unhealthy foods out there until they can make their own choice. Interested in seeing what you did. Is there already a video on this?

[@alishabank4092]

Hi Chelsea, loved the video and love your podcast. Would love to hear more about your running and how your physique has changed. I was also wondering if you are getting any niggles running 7 days a week. I am also a runner, have been since 2015, but worry about injuries, I'd love to do 5k a day, but have never done daily runs for fear of niggles. Currently do about 4 days a week.

[@claudimarimai]

nice video !! you should always water the basil from the pod - so put water into the pod not into the soil ,, haha . i hope you know what I mean .. ;-) best wishes from austria to australia!

[@salenarichardson2766]

Never thought to air fry tomatoes!

[@ellenchampion1987]

Question - You didn't say the amounts of the ingredients to the cashew sauce you poured over the pasta. Can you please give me the actual recipe? I love your videos. Your family is adorable. You look like a great mommy.

[@ChelseaMae]

I didn't have an actual recipe so what you see is what I eyeballed too. :) I don't really use measurements so when I share recipes it's a HUGE effort to actually put numbers on it as I don't really cook that way.

Brunch looks delicious! How long do you steam your potatoes for please?

I know this isn't the purpose of your channel, but I'd LOVE some kid centered food content. How do you respond when one of the girls won't eat something you've prepared? I have a 4yo boy who is so picky, it's such a struggle to encourage him to eat nutrient dense foods.
