OMG!!! This is so fun! I actually eat my veggies and starch together now that I have been maintaining for 10 years. All your food looks so good! The reason I recommend greens for brekky is they have thylakoids which turn off the hunger switch and fight cravings. This just proves you can eat more and weigh less. Yo really can lose weight with a full plate! Congratulations on your weight loss!!! I love your shawl too. Can you please remove the comment below saying that I fat shame people? Thanks,
Thanks so much!!! I had a great day of eating like you do - it was so much fun. I have to say the breakfast skillet was my favorite - so filling!! The next day I weighed myself and was shocked to find I was down 39 lbs!! After all that food, I actually lost weight! The real takeaway though was how good I felt - light & energized! Thanks for writing such a great book! I don't feel like I'm dieting - I just feel like I'm living :)
So Fun! I consider Chef AJ my mentor as well ~ her work is both inspiring & important....and helping sooooo many people! Thanks for sharing your Eat Like Chef AJ Day with us! I haven't tried the Yummy Sauce yet... but you sure convinced me to move it up to the top of my "Must Try" list! :-)
That’s a Japanese Sweet Potato and it’s the one she usually eats, her favorite is the Okinawa variety which is deep purple, usually have to order them from Hawaii.
"Chef AJ beat me in an eating contest" You need to issue a warning before statements like that as I sneezed my lemon water thróugh my nose when I heard that LOL
You did great! I also follow Chef AJ and the plant based doctors and have learned so much from them. I recently lost 30 pounds by intermittent fasting and eating a 50/50 plate. Still working on overeating the trigger foods and loosing the last 5 pounds. Love watching your channel!
Not a sweet potato fan but had no idea that were different varieties. Was listening to Chef AJ and like you, heard that the ones she does like are at TJ and Whole Foods. I just happened to be at WF and picked up 2 (Jewel?) Hopefully can try it this weekend. Great job on weight loss!!
Jewel are the standard orange ones that are most commonly found everywhere. Japanese Sweet Potatoes are a bit more treasured and loved in the plant world and okinawa purple are super great!!!
OMG Janet. I have been away from your channel for the last year or so and decided to check in to see what you guys were up to. You look FABULOUS! I don’t know what changes you made to loose all of the weight but I have to assume that you are eating like Chef AJ. I will catch up now. Congratulations. I hope you become my mentor like AJ is yours. I must find the secret. I’m so tired of being a chubby vegan. ❤️
Thanks so much for the kind words! Yes, Janet has been eating more or less like Chef AJ. She's shifted to eating mostly WFPB foods and hasn't been eating gluten anymore.

I've always been curious about Chef AJ's recipes, would love to see you try more :)
I love this! You are inspiring me to actually use my Chef AJ cookbooks ; )

Yes, we love those too but she also loves the Hannah yams - they are super sweet!
I like the jars you used, I’ll have to search for them
Thanks - I got them at Walmart in a 4 pack.

Seriously Chef AJ looks like a sparrow
but eats a LOT of food
Love Chef AJ!! The best I ever did was starting to eat veggies for breakfast and staying to the left of the red line! Her cookbooks are all great!

That was a lot of food to eat in one day! Have a great weekend!
