I only care about losing belly fat. I weight train so I don’t mind weighing more, I just want a slim midsection and balanced hormones and easy digestion and the starch solution has helped with this tremendously. It’s mind boggling how I used to be high fat pescatarian and had so many digestive issues, skin and hair issues and candida. Whole plant based foods are really the best natural medicine and most of all it’s sustainable long term and very satiating.

I started following calorie density/as described here (I’ve been vegan for 7years) about 5 months ago and I’ve lost nearly two stone and I’m a pound or two off my ideal weight of 8 and a half stone. Once I had got into a good routine I found I could plan to go off plan once or twice a week (not too drastically mind) and I still kept losing. I haven’t gained on a single week. I know we’re all different, but it’s worth knowing that it can be possible to have ‘treats’ when you’re in a good position and know you can be consistent for the vast majority of the time and are still aware of your calories. Thanks Emmie 🥰

As I was heading towards the big 50 I began to gain weight. I was then encouraged and a little coerced by a well meaning friend to try Keto and although I lost the weight, I felt absolutely awful & exhausted the entire year and a half on Keto. 😩 I’ve gone back to WFPB, but been gaining weight consistently in spite of eating as balanced and clean as possible and am currently 30 pounds over weight. These tips were invaluable will implement them right away.

If we are reducing or eliminating nuts and seeds for weight loss, where can we get our vitamin E from? I am quite concerned. I noted that Plantiful Kiki was deficient of several vitamins and minerals and I wondered if there was a problem with not getting enough BEANS. literally a sprinkle of chickpeas aint gonna cut it. otherwise i totally believe in the starch solution. Thirdly, why if starch isn't a weight inducer do we have to limit our carbs for the 50/50 plate? Thank you. Just trying to get a few things straight in my head.

I had to take cortisone and that has my intestine which was already weakened totally destroyed. Since then I can no longer eat legumes, even some vegetables such as onions, green beans and eggplant, Brussels sprouts are no longer edible for me. As I am allergic I have to avoid dairy products, soy, wheat, gluten and nuts. Without the legumes I feel very hungry and constantly get ravenous. I am so frustrated that I eat everything and nothing. Can you give me some advice on what to eat instead of legumes?😘

Great video! I was wondering though if you could do a deep dive regarding calorie density for wet starches? I cannot wrap my head around how it works. I suck at math but I can’t find any videos on KZbin that explains this. Perhaps show dry oats first and the calorie per portion compared by the same amount now cooked? (And maybe the same with overnight oats?) Also I’d like to see this for rice and other starches as well where the calorie density is lowered when you add water to it. Also, is it the same for overnight oats? Aka does the calorie density become lower if you add a vegan milk to it and let it soak overnight? I love having overnight oats for breakfast sometimes but if it’s bad regarding calorie density I get why oatmeal is better. Thank you!
@gianninal54552 жыл бұрын
It basically comes down to calorie dilution and/or vol change. Like she explains in the oat cookie example, if you measured out 500 calories of cooked oats vs 500 calories of dry oats, the VOLUME of dry oats, for the SAME quantity of calories would be significantly smaller and hence less filling. So while the VOLUME of the 500 cals of cooked oats could likely fill you, you might need 2-3x times the volume of dry oats to feel the same level of physical/emotional satiety and hence would consume 1000-1500 cals of dry oats vs 500 of cooked oats. What makes that VOLUME of cooked oats so much more filling for far less calories is the water content, which plumps the oats making them take up more space in your stomach and hence activating the "stretch" many of us need to feel satiated. All for less total calories. As for your overnight oats vs "oatmeal" the only thing that would really distinguish them is that you might be doing overnight oats with a plant based "milk" vs just pure water, and frankly most of those dairy milk alternatives are more water than anything else. Both formats yield oats that are "plump" after having absorbed the liquid. Whether it's by slow soaking/absorbing or a heat based method (microwave, stovetop, IP, etc) it should yield similar volume. Now, if you're using a plant based yogurt or other more calorie dense medium for your overnight oats, THAT might be something to consider changing if u feel it could be hampering your weight loss.

I've followed a plant-based diet for a while, but my body fat ratio has increased while my muscle has decreased. The weight itself has dropped but what's lost is the muscle, not the body fat. (I regularly check my body fat ratio at home.) What do you think is the problem? I don't eat processed vegan substitutes. I don't cook with oil. So I started wondering if this low protein + high carb diet has caused this problem. What would you recommend for the cases like mine? Would it be because of too much calorie deficit? :(
