What a great message at the beginning of this video! Cheers to a STRONGER you ❤
I love your messaging Ami about eating for health as your primary goal not the smallest you that you can be.
❤ your “ramble” about chasing health not the smallest version of yourself. Ami, you are so relatable. Thanks for sharing your messages!
Agreed. This was exactly my thought, too. She really does have a lot of words of wisdom.
I love your “What I Ate Today” videos. I have reached my goal weight so I don’t need to lose anymore, but I do need to maintain my weight and your recipes are great for that purpose. If you need to brand the videos at all, maybe you could use the term “weight loss maintenance” or “weight maintenance” or something along those lines. 💚
Love your message. Totally resonates with me. I’m still😢 obsessed with the numbers on the scale even though everyone tells me I look too skinny. I weighed extra 50lb when I was younger and that is still the version of myself I see in the mirror. Like you I still have a "tummy" which irks me to no end. I think all the social media posts from vloggers who’ve lost weight and showing off their super buff bodies can be so triggering. I know I need to show myself more compassion and I’m sure it’s the same for many women. My goal should be making peace with food and finding my hunger cues.
Thank you for sharing a great message.
Wow I really did need to hear the message at the start of your video! Years of the pursuit of my smallest version and never satisfied. Thanks so much. I love your videos.
Yes, the what I eat in a day videos are still very helpful. x
Agree 💯percent Ami!
Being strong is especially important later in life so lift weights and build up those bones early on!! 💪💪
I look forward to all of your videos, but the What I Eat in a Day videos are my favorites. They show real life and your chats are so encouraging!
I love your “what I eat in a day” videos - keep them coming ❤!
I agree with you 💯 about society's obsession with being thin. Just be healthy and enjoy your days. Obsession about anything can consume a person and steal their joy.
I love what I eat in a day videos
Definitely ❤❤ day to day, all day and even weekly are all awesome encouragements and healing helps.👍👍😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
This really resonates with me! I’m on year 4 of my WFPB SOS free lifestyle and I’ve just come to this same conclusion. I’m lean, strong and healthy and I’m no longer chasing my thinnest self. Thank you Amy for your sage words, addressing this publicly and for the scrumptious food inspiration! I had your chocolate chick pea waffles for my first meal and Ohemgee, they were scrumptious!!!
Love your what I eat in a day with your creative recipes and really enjoy your insights 🥰 strength and flexibility is so important as you grow older and to your menopausal years , so it is great that you are laying the foundation 🙌
Love that chat thank you for reminding us, we don’t always need to be chasing our smallest version of ourselves❤
Definetely love your 'what I eat' videos no matter what the angle is 🙂
Please keep making your "What I eat in a day" videos!! They are my favourite videos that you make. I don't care that they are not focused on weight loss, I just find it interesting seeing what you eat on a daily basis. On the days you don't post videos, I always go back and watch your old ones. They keep me motivated to eat healthy!!❤
I love your “what I eat in a day” videos, but also you making the dish, not just show when it’s done. Your creativity really help the rest of us. 😊
Honestly, you’re such a fun, creative, lively spirit combined with a down-to-earth personality. I would watch whatever videos you enjoy making. I love watching you create day-to-day meals on the fly. Please keep making lots of what I eat in a day and new creation videos. Loved watching you every day last year. You’re an inspiration!
I am so happy you talked about this. I came to that realization myself this year. I spent 54 years chasing my smallest self. I lost 100 pounds last year. Now I have a lot of loose skin. I am 63 so gravity is winning. I have my measurements from when I was 30 and I was 170 pounds just like I am now but I now have 6 inch extra around my waist. Same weight but extra skin. It took me a while to accept this. And I actually thought of trying to lose more weight. But I am very healthy and my blood test are all optimum. So thank you for this video. Love you❤
Wow! You are SO RIGHT!!! the world is obsessed with weight loss when health and fitness should clearly be our goals! Well done you, you made it all so clear! Keep doing what you’re doing. Think you’re AMAZING! ❤
Good for you Ami. You look great and now having given up losing the 10 extra pounds you have made your message even more clear. Strong and healthy is a great place to be and a great motivator for the rest of us. I also want to say that what you are calling French toast is actually bread pudding. And I love bread pudding so I’m looking forward to giving your method a try.
Your "what I eat in a day" videos are very helpful because they inspire me, motivate me when I'm tired and don't have any ideas. They are a blessing and I hope you continue making them. 🥰
Yes. I love the shift! As we grow we are not the same person and that’s why you are so appealing. You are authentic, loving and talented! Hopefully others are excited to grow with you. I am!
Yes! Focusing on body composition, not weight.. Feeding my body good nutritious foods. xoxo
Yessss! Strong, healthy and vibrant is the goal!
Yes I’m focusing now on gut health eating whole plant foods is amazing for gut health, feeding my gut microbes 🦠 will make me feel amazing.
My weight just won’t budge, I’d be amazing at maintaining weight lol 😂
Hopefully if I stress less about the weight and consistency feed my body good food it will start moving xxx
Love your videos Ami as always ❤
I really miss your videos they help me figure out what to eat as a vegan. Thanks 🙏🏽
Love the what i eat in a Day videos plus all your weight loss. Tips in all of your talking!!❤
Yes! That was definitely me… chasing the smallest version of myself. When I achieved it, I was actually pretty weak and realized I lost too much muscle along with the fat. Working on getting stronger now and a lot less focused on the weight. Thanks for the positive message!
For me your videos are very helpful because of health reasons. I never came here to loose weight. It's difficult to find someone who cooks whole food plant based WITHOUT THE OIL. I still think you should talk about the weight loss though because it will help so many that need that. But I eat this way because I have lupus and it is part of what helps keep it in remission without taking meds. Thank you for all you do, I've bought a couple of your books and enjoy your recipes very much..as well as your real life vulnerable style 😄
I saw someone make chickpea yogurt and I thought of you ❤
Yesssss!!!! Strong, powerful and vibrant :) I have been focussing on upping my protein, (and weights at the gym) within WFPB framework lately and feel sooo much better, stronger and more capable.
Yes, recipe and meal planning inspiration always welcome. Thank you!!!
Love this❤
please keep making your videos! My husband and I are crazy about what you have to say!
Super encouraging 👏
I loved this message!! Thanks!!
This is so true !!!
So appreciate your perspective!
I have to tell you that I am absolutely obsessed with the chickpea tuna cucumber sushi I’ve made it three times already and it’s so perfect thank you so much
I LOVE THIS!
totally agree!!
Love your what I eat in a day videos ! ❤
Love your what I eat in a day😊
Love these videos and I appreciate you SO much because a) Your rambles remind me of one of my besties; b) you have great WFPB ideas; c) as a fellow mum always on the go, your real-life videos make me feel like I'm at a friend's house. Thank you 🙏🏼
Yess please keep doing what i eat in a day vids ❤
I love all your content!!!! Please keep it all coming! It's all wonderful. I love watching you do life! ❤
Thanks for letting us journey with you. Healthy eating, yes!!
Love the cucumber boat sandwich
You are so inspiring, Ami!! I bought all of your ebooks! Have loved making recipes from them! Excited to make more!
I love your videos! I think you are an awesome recipe creator! Thanks for all the inspiration!
Great ideas! We are a sandwich and snacks kind of group, so these were perfect!!
The message at the beginning is definitely what I needed to hear today!
I love you what I eat in a day videos
I love the what i eat in a day videos helps give different ideas thankyou for the hard work
Love your videos. 20 years ago, I ran the London marathon. Then I found weightlifting and totally fell in love. Have completed as a bodybuilder and am now a powerlifter. Totally love being able to lift heavy -I'll be 50 this year. Definitely something I would recommend people looking into if they are interested.
Love your hair 🤗 Love watching your RUclips videos. Love how you are with your babies. You include them in everything including putting together meals. I use so many of your cooking concoctions, yum 😋
I love any videos you do and I would love to just see healthy eating since that is also where I'm at. :)
You look beautiful!! Love your short hair 🩷
Totally resonates with me! I do have weight to lose but I really do want to be strong and healthy. I needed a mindset change with my eating and watching your videos have been so helpful to learn food options that are low calorie density that will keep me full ❤
🥰🥰🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 FRENCH TOAST IDEA !!! I have an idea for french toast. Tofu scramble (with silken tofu) is one of my go to’s for meals. What if you make an ‘egg wash’ for French toast using soft silken tofu and the scramble ingredients (e.g. turmeric, garlic, black-salt, cumin, plant milk) and blend up. I’m definitely going to try it! You’re an inspiration to me. Look at me, making up recipes! 😊
I love ❤your hair. It really suits you hun.
I know exactly what you mean. I was so slim in my 20s. I’m 45 and want to lose weight to get in my healthy weight range. Years ado in my 20s if I put on a few pounds of l would go to extremes as wanted to be even slimmer than what I was already. Now I’m no longer slim, I just want to get into my healthy weight range or thereabouts xxx😊
🥰🥰🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 Love you and your fun videos! I’ve done your baked pears often. So good! Because you love soya sauce on your veggies, I wanted to share my teriyaki sauce with you. Yesterday I marinated tofu in teriyaki, air fried it and added to sautéed enoki mushrooms. Delish! My teriyaki = 2 of each - 2 oz soya sauce, 2 oz water, 2 sweetener of choice, 2 tsp garlic, 2 T grated frozen ginger. I freeze my ginger and use microplaner to grate frozen ginger with peel on.
I find your videos super helpful for keeping me on track and motivated. Love your recipes and enthusiasm! I just found your channel a couple of weeks ago, and it has inspired me to go back to being vegan with a focus on low calorie density. I am way more interested in good health than appearance!
Appreciate this perspective so much. I was feeling like you looked too thin for a bit and was pleased with the subtle shift back to what looks more balanced and healthy. 💜
Try flax egg for french toast x
Watching you cook and eat always makes me want to get into the. kitchen! I made your veggie hash from the last video - put it in some romaine lettuce leaves and topped with a mixture of some spicy sauces I had in the fridge - super yummy! Of course, it made a huge batch, and I'm not really a volume eater, so there is plenty left over to add to other stuff. I had a mung bean "Just Egg' style omelette this morning with some of the hash in it - so good! Thank you for all the yummy recipe inspo! Oh btw, I also made your chocolate pudding pie. Really good!
That cucumber boat looks so good. I don't like oatmeal- it makes me wonder what's for breakfast. Going to make these after shopping. I don't need to loose anymore- just maintain my weight. Thanks for sharing being healthy. God bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon
“ Smallest version of yourself “…totally relate. It’s ridiculous and I know that but it won’t let me go 🙋🏻♀️
may I ask what eyeliner did you use ? love it
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your beginning message. I think if we change our language and focus on health and not weight loss, we will still get to a healthy weight and have a better relationship with ourselves. Continue what you are doing, love watching your videos.
Love your focus! Health should be the primary goal. Without it, little else matters. ❤🩹❤🩹❤🩹
Hi Amy I made the quinoa wrap twice already so good and full of protein 🥁Ingrid
Agree with your new focus. There's a difference between calorie counting & calorie density! Having excess weight is detrimental to health on medical plus psychological levels.
Strength,stamina, energy, health & living life to the full is the way to go!
This is such an important conversation! At the beginning of your videos you were wanting to lose 5 more pounds, you mentioned it frequently, and while you looked so good (even on camera) this idea seemed so important but the 5 pounds never came off, I think... so fast forward to this thinking out loud you're doing and it is SO GOOD! Yes! To me the starch solution is about health - and vigor.. I'm grateful you're using your platform to speak of this important topic! Thanks Ami!
I have recently lost 11lbs and am now in the normal range for bmi.
I am trying to make sustainable changes to habits so I don’t put the weight back on.
There is a temptation to think that everything will be better when you are slimmer, and to put things off thinking you will find things easier when you get to a certain weight.
I’m trying to not obsess too much about how much more weight I will lose, I don’t want to be always pushing to get lower numbers on the scales.
My next goal is to add in more exercise because ultimately health is what is important not the number on the scale.
It’s a huge relief to be out of the overweight bracket for bmi because I felt that was a threat to my health.
My diet is now largely WFPB which I feel is positive for my health.
Now I need to consistently get the exercise in as that’s the next threat to my health that I need to deal with. It’s all a work in progress! x
Yayyyy❤
visual what you eat is good , you make it simple to do , l get it now it took a long time. rice and veg and sauce or stew and rice or potatoes gravy and veggie burger or oats and fruit or stir fry they are my go to meals . simple works
YESSSSSS!!! I struggled with anorexia for 15 years! for what???!!! I'm so regretful of that waste of time.
Your eyes❤ awesome make up you look so vibrant and fresh 🥰
You made bread pudding cups!
Strength focus i found became important after (Like you) i lost the extra pounds. For those who still have weight to lose may find it difficult to have a focus on strength. I believe each one will and should have a why and this why can change over time …. Strength is important for longevity … i know i want to be able to go about my life easily when am older and that is my why and keeps me going….
Weight maintenance could be a good branding idea as the other commenter pointed out
You are brillant .. good on you for letting you
I love your receipes... any chance of getting a vegan hot cross bun receipe.
Would love a Chickpea pepperoni creation
This all looks great!
I'd like to get the Vegan Oil Free North Indian Cookbook. I'm in the US so how can I pay with USD?
I want to validate anyone desiring a flat stomach --proper food combining, fruit on an empty stomach, eating light to heavy and colon cleansing IS health AND a flat stomach❤️I love your creative recipes but simplicity will always be king for digestive ease❤️ so it’s just all what you’re willing to ‘comprise’ for what is possible. I wanted to reword this so it don’t seem presumptuous or anything…simply sharing what’s worked for me on my health journey and offer a different POV/support . You can have and be it all :)
I am literally in the same weight maintainance situation. It is so strange not to have to think about losing weight. 😅
You are such a cool person
Sooooo true ❤ couldn’t agree more.. kinda crazy… not about what life is. Focus on health abs just stick with that 😅tough tho
For the office maybe try pickling cucumbers instead of a full size cucumber or cut the full size in half.
Does anyone know the oven temp and the length of time to bake these falafel balls? Thanks in advance! ❤
Does anyone else still get gas/bloating even after eating this way for years?
Yeah, that’s me 🖐️
Yes. 24 x 7
How do you make your beans. Not sure about canned beans but if you can make them. Soaking them first or overnight it's good. But I sprout them. So after soak rinse and let them sit. I rinse them twice a day and sometimes 1 day sometimes 2 or 3 days. Depends on the weather. If it's too hot the bugs hang around. Then put into a pot of water with kombu. As the water heats up skim the foam off. I hear changing the soaking water, kombu, and taking off the skim all help. Good luck
@@maureens2812 I do soak mine but don’t sprout them. I think it’s the cruciferous veggies that get me.
@@maureens2812 I do make my own but never did sprout them.
Your food look nice
Being super strong isn't necessary to be the healthiest version of yourself. If it's what you want then go for it but it's not required.
How is the chickpea tuna made? 🍣
I love sandwiches
