    I'm back with another Cooking with Carla video. Today I'm sharing how I put a meal together. This is real time video rather than a recipe video, sharing my thought processes of how I decide what to eat if I haven't planned.

    Yep, whenever I hear or see the words “high voltage,” I must - absolutely MUST - stop what I’m doing and put on the Electric Six song immediately and listen to it at least twice. Jack White sounds so demented on that song, and it only makes Dick Valentine sound even better. The two of them together are perfection. Always makes me smile. ☺️

    Honestly, Carla, you sharing that you use the vegan meat substitutes on a salad was a game-changer for me. It fills me up and makes them more satisfying. I throw a portion of „like grilled chicken“ on top and that‘s been my breakfast since the two-week diet challenge last cycle. I still do it every day and my day starts so well, I have loads more energy. I had simply not thought of it, I‘ve been vegetarian & vegan so long.
    P.S. absolutely LOVING Carla‘s Corner. I look forward to it, you always say something that hits home and helps.

    I am 70 this last April. I have lost 200 lbs 4 times and over 100 several times. I have also had my stomach stapled 25 years ago. In the last 3 years, I have lost 160 lbs by not eating another bite when I feel full. I went to my doctor March and found out I had lost 20 lbs. more, It was a surprise. Here is my problem, I immediately sabotaged myself. I gained back the 20 lbs. I look 50, and I know that when the stuffing comes out, I will have a lot of wrinkles, and I will have no chin like both of my overweight sisters. I am terrified of wrinkles. I know this sounds crazy, but it is a reality. There are a lot of reasons for my self-sabotage over the years, and this is added to the pile. In the last 2 weeks I discovered your channel. I need to watch more than the three videos of yours, however I watched the one where you were making a salad and you weighed every thing out. That is a great way to learn to eat, I think, rather that calorie counting, even though portions are determined by calories per portion. How did you learn this? Is there a book to help a person learn this? If so, I would love to know which one? If I need to be directed somewhere else please do so. I need to lose 80 more pounds. I am looking at knee surgery and possibly back surgery. I may avoid back surgery, and any other surgeries with that weight loss. I will be watching all your videos but, for now can you help me out? Congrats on you life changes. Don't let the haters occupy one bit of space in your beautiful mind and heart!! As Taylor Swift would say, "Shake it off." Hugs and thanks, Kitty

    @Carla I always love your videos. One question on this one: what's with the precise measurements of salad ingredients? I don't understand if you're measuring each gram just to make the recipes, or if you're still measuring and weighing every item during maintenance. I'm hoping it's just for the recipes. 🍅

    • @HalfofCarla
      @HalfofCarla  Месяц назад +1

      In maintenance I do a reset every few months just to keep myself in check, so like a few weeks of weighing etc, but mostly just for you guys 🖤

    Vegetables… I have to learn to eat them. But I live by myself so it always goes bad in the fridge. Frozen wokvegetables I use, but they are so boring. But now when its so hot outside, maybe a chicken salad instead of warm food… (27 degrees. About 80 fahrenhait, dont know what measure you have for heat) 🥵

  • @CathDaddy

    I actually never weigh any of my vegetables because they’re so low calorie - do you weigh them to get the correct proportions every time or do you track calories as well?
