Instead if Soda, just drink Sparkling Water like AHA or La Croix or Perrier.
Or get a zevia pop or poppi. ✌️
That’s how I stopped drinking cokes! Then went to just water have been drinking it since 2018! Don’t miss them at all
I drink water with lemon! All day even in restaurants
That’s call I drank growing up! Soda! My dad owned a beer shop! Then my wife and I gave up soda ! Went to tea! Then I started drinking water with lemon !
Spindrift is the best sparkling water
My replacements...
1) Cooled boiled potatoes with chopped boiled eggs
2) Kind Zero Dark Chocolate Bar
3) Kefir & berries with allulose
4) Iced mate or electrolytes drink
5) Protein Smoothie
6) In N Out 4x2 plain
7) Quality deli cuts with avocado spread and Dave's Killer Bread.
8) Protein Bowl
9) Fruit or Kind Zero Dark Chocolate Bar
10) Sardines or mackeral
11) Magic Spoon Protein Cereal
12) Allulose and sometimes honey
13) Chickpea or lentil pasta
14) Air fryer chicken
That sounds good but o made fruit smoothie with protein powder! I actually gained weight! I stopped my smoothie
@@geno5169 yeah I don't go for it much or at all but it's probably the best bet for a replacement.
I get it about allulose but what about monk fruit?
@@efsmiley1995 I think monk fruit is great, I use it sometimes for a little bit more of a kick with stevia also, but my go-to is allulose.
@@efsmiley1995 I use monk fruit in my coffee. Best sugar replacement I've found for my taste buds.
Great video, complete and informative!!
Such great ideas for swaps. Thank you.
For the candy craving just have an 85% Dark Chocolate bar (or higher cocoa). It will satisfy your cravings while only giving you 1/3 the sugar in a soda can.
Make your own ice cream, real cream and eggs yolks, a dash of vanilla blend, freeze and voila. Its delicious. No sugar or carbs
Awesome!!
How the weights or numbers of yolks in your recipe?
Come on share that recipe.
Really like these food replacement videos. They’re like little reminders. Honestly now that I know about inflammatory seed oils and sugars, I’d still only stick with the more nutritious options here or nothing at all.
A fan of the plain whole yogurt with fruits, smoothies, protein shakes, honey, stevia,
electrolytes, lentils, burger without the bread. All great options. I’d add kombucha too.
This video was super helpful! Thank you!
This video was great! Thank you !
Amazing tips
This is the best kind of video. Really helpful.
Great suggestions!!!!
It's videos like this that remind me why Thomas is at the top of his game right now. Super well researched, honest and moat importantly usable advice.
Thomas, great content the past few days!
One of your best Videos ever! Congratulation,this is the real stuff how to overcome cravings 🙏
Another wake up vedio! Very helpful Thomas
Good stuff, Thomas 👍🏻💪🏻
I replace mayonnaise with lite sour cream and a little salt for things like tuna salad and dips. Less caloric and not all the oils.
TY , very useful
Love your ideas! The meat bowl!
Thank you Thomas❤️🥰
Craving ice cream - buy Ninja Creami and make protein ice cream.. thank me later
I want to try that! I like to whip a small amount of heavy cream with organic stevia drops. Put it in the freezer for 20 minutes and add raspberries. Satisfying.
@@sueellenwalsh1326 ninja creami is game changing
Never heard of it
@@geno5169 you live under the rock? 😂 but seriously check out ninja creami. It makes great ice cream and its just my go to every day
Just got a creami. Sams has them on sale $119. I even use cottage cheese and yogurt. Raw cacoa is great. Just got raw 100% grass fed non denatured whey protein powder. $79 for 5 lbs 90 21 gram protein. Game changer! It’s great and I feel fantastic after consuming.
great video !!
Nice video topic
Great video
another GREAT video
Thank you.
All these cravings can be addressed in a healthy manner by only eating at home and using appropriate substitutes and taking your water with you. My goal for 2024 was to not consume anything not from my own kitchen. Almost 6 months in and I've only ordered pickup steak and salad twice (dressing at home) so I'm not doing too bad.
Amazing Goal. Even if you don't meet your standards for the goal, the journey will transform you!🎉
That’s an awesome idea! Have you lost weight?
Sounds like a really boring lifestyle but I get it. 😂 I avoid eating out as much as possible or go to the same fee places that I know are decent.
Fantastic goal!
Oh, let me add my chix nug recipe too. I cook with avocado oil or macadamia nut oil because of the quality of omegas but also the high smoke point.
I use tenders so I don’t have to cut anything, smart chicken brand. I dip in flour, then dip in an organic beaten egg, then Panko bread crumb. Heat the oil to 350F or so then shallow fry a couple tenders at a time. For me 3-4 mins a side. Absolutely amazing and the oil is of high quality and mildly degraded. I use a sugarless ketchup, it’s 1g sugar (from the tomatoes) in 1tbs. Good luck y’all!
Great video by the way. Awesome suggestion.
I really like the replacement ideas. Maybe a video of you strolling through a mall looking for best options to eat would be fun too. You used to do those supermarket videos. It could be fun.
The Epic Bison Cranberry is my go to for a little protein on the go. Love it! For a sweet tooth, I like the Joolies small box of 3 Dates. Dates are so sweet it usually does the trick. But if I'm really craving chocolate, I go to the Bulk section of the grocery store and get 4 or 5 dark chocolate covered Pecans. It costs next to nothing and I get my chocolate fix.
You're one of the best
Also for ice cream options, just blend a frozen banana with a splash of milk and boom you have banana ice cream. Very healthy option with no added sugars.
Good idea, I will try that. I have made my own ice cream 🍨 and for me the effort is not worth it. I’d rather eat it less often and just buy some quality ice cream. But I’m always looking for good options and this sounds good. I’ve used frozen berries in the distant past, so long ago I can’t remember exactly what I was trying to achieve.
The LMNT seltzers are delicious! That would definitely satisfy the soda craving.
Sugar alternatives: what about monk fruit crystals? I've been using that for several years now and rarely hear anyone talk about it.
Is Kasha and Kamut Puffs an ok alternative to have everyday?
To get over candy bars, I will just make keto fat bombs or usually go towards lily's dark chocolate. The cranberry epic bar is my favorite meat bar though. My soda of choice is Zevia. Once you get used to the taste, it is wonderful.
The stevia sodas are pretty good!
Zevia and bubly makes me feel like I have a little treat each day. Keto yogurt vanilla / coconut/ strawberry flavors are a good option so creamy. My kids have grown up with alternatives their whole life I am so proud they have grown to love my antics lol it's all out of love 😊
If you want a replacement for pasta for bolognese sauce or rice for chili con carne sauce, then try cauliflower, especially if you keep it a little crispier. It's a great combo with any tomato sauce, really.
Lol! What timing! I was craving ice cream (which I don't even have around) but ate a generous serving of half- frozen peaches - yummy and satiating 😋
Absolutely.
Sir Kensington's avocado oil mayonnaise and Primal Kitchen no sugar ketchup are great options if you really crave those condiments. Allulose can be added to the ketchup if you want a little sweetness.
In the sugar category I usually use sucanat. Or dark grade maple syrup.
For the milkshake, do a scoop of protein powder, serving of almond milk and add ice. Gives you that same milkshake consistency. Mix in a single serve blender....blend and enjoy
Some more alternatives I've found work great:
Potato Chips - Siete chips
Candy Bar - Quest protein peanut butter cups
Ice Cream - Halo Top (but more likely Breyers CarbSmart since halo is insanely expensive)
Burger - bring keto/fiber bread with you to use as the bun
Sauces - sugar free/no sugar added ketchup
Cereal - Magic Spoon
I love how Thomas let Jillian get everything off her chest. True King 🤴
This is the realest video.
I wish you'd share some homemade cookies, bars or muffins etc that you recommend
If you're craving a chocolate candy bar, a dark chocolate bar sweetened with stevia is a great alternative. My favorite is Lily's dark chocolate bar. It satisfies my chocolate cravings without any sugar.
Quick candy bar Giardelli dark chocolate chips and nuts.
Topo Chico with fresh key lime juice is a glass bottle, Celtic salt on rim.
Keep grass fed taco meat on hand and make your own bowls. Chipotle uses seed oils.
Make grass fed hamburgers regularly at home.
Keep deviled eggs with mustard and a little pickle relish on hand.
Seven Sunday cereal
Boars head meats
The best soda alternative health wise by far is zevia soda. Its such a better alternative its pretty much healthy.
if you mix Greek yogurt with some chocolate or strawberry flavored protein powder and then freeze it for a bit, it's a pretty solid substitute for ice cream
Craving from my own experince are an addiction, i been carnoivore for a month and all my cravings are gone, before that i would crave all those things that you said. Cool video btw and if it helps you and others then each to their own
Buckwheat with a dash of milk / cream and monk fruit and cinnamon is 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
What about homemade potato chips? I sometimes slice a potato really thin and cook them in the microwave with a little bit of olive oil and salt. Tastes divine once you got it right.
Really good, but an air fryer would make it 10x better
Candy bar alternative... sugar-free homemade protein bar! They're surprisingly easy to make
Instead of the options for chips do pork rinds, cheese crisps (preferably home made but whips and a few store brands are good) or make your own air fried coated in salt maybe some parmesan and animal fat or coconut oil veggie or potato chips. With burgers you can get even a value menu burgers sans bun with a side salad and to that but bring your own lemon juice and oil ask for salt and pepper packets for dressing. On sodas there is diet sodas and there is stevia or sparkling water which you can add your own electrolytes to and you can add true lemon packets and stevia. Chocolate or candy there are Lilly's and Justin's chocolate and Russell Stover now has a line of stevia sweetened sugar free chocolate. You can also make your own granola with nuts some small amount of dried fruit xantham gum and a sweetener and maybe some nut butter you could use a nut flour or carnivore flour or protein powder to really ramp it up. The whole sandwich thing is great. With ice cream you can make your own with cottage cheese or coconut/almond milk and use all kinds of flavorings like goog goog brand sugar free jam that uses stevia and eyrithritol as sweetener do that with a sugar free chocolate melted to make a say raspberry chocolate swirl. Also if you chop up some of those Russell Stover sugar free stevia toffee things and add some PB or nut butter and sweeten with stevia you get toffee and PB or nut flavored. On chicken nuggets low carb love recently showed a 3 ingredient chicken nuggets recipe using ground chicken egg and Parmesan. You could do that though I found adding a bit of low carb flour gets crispier results. I've also used with canned mackerel and canned salmon or canned tuna for fish nuggets. And btw on mayo did you know to make a healthy one all you need is a blender eggs oil and vinegar? You can use live culture acv or even brine from sour kraut or komboocha to make it and it will be a fermented food safe at room temp for months. So yeah here's some tweaks to your list.
I would take salmon over tuna any day…much lower in mercury. But also a fan of sardines.
Since going low carb I don't have any cravings. Sorted. If you have cravings then go cold turkey. Saves a lot of time.
Shiritaki noodles are a great replacement for spaghetti!!
Just wanted to throw out a recipe that’s amazing, sweet and super healthy.
370g Greek yogurt Fage 0%, add one scoop of your fave choco protein powder. Mix, then cut up some fresh strawberries and or pineapple, whatever fruit you want. I add 300g pineapple typically because the bromelain helps digest the yogurt. Hope this helps someone.
I’m also 6’3” 240 lbs so adjust the weights as needed
I find if I try to substitute what I'm really craving I end up eating it ASWELL as the thing I've just eaten to try stop my craving! So now I could have doubled my calories instead of just having what I was craving all along!
Eat enough protein and cravings diminish.
So how do you feel about chips cooked in avocado oil with only potatoes, avocado oil and salt.??
Oh, and if you limit your intake to only a handful at a time as opposed to a large portion?
The key is to limit or eliminate them because they aren't doing much for you other than easing the craving. If you can have cooled boiled potatoes with chopped boiled eggs and a little bit of olive oil, salt and pepper that will probably be your best bet.
Potatoes cooking in oil have acrylamide which causes cancer.
Believe me I’ve been tempted with those chips. I have to tell myself old programming.
Pizza burgers (patty, sauce, cheese) are very satisfying. I use a squirt of Stur in my sparkling water. They make a grape flavor that is wonderful. Love Good Fats makes some decent bars that satisfy a sweet craving.
Bro... your video is making me hungry 😅🤣
Thomas starting the bathing suit season reduce fat and diet video full court press this month. The man knows his way around the algorithm!
I've discovered adding erithritol/monkfruit sweetener to plain Greek yogurt satisfies any icecream or candy cravings I get.
Fried chicken - use pork rinds for breading and throw it in the air frier!
Thanks .. did you explain WHY no salmon?
Because Farm raised salmon is total garbage with the crap they feed them and eating fish waste in those holding pens...same goes for shrimp..all restaurants serve farm raised shrimp unless they specifically advertise on their menu that its wild caught..
@@HOWLINGWOLF-ig5zsok, but is this a problem with other fish as well? Also, with all the crap in the oceans I’d that a problem?
They make olive oil potato chips with seasalt vey Healthy for you
My cravings are texture based. For example, if I want chips I don't want a baked potato. I am going for the crunch so carrots are a better sub.
Also regarding soda, how about a stevia sweetened soda like zevia or even better kombucha.
I grew up drinking Coke! Then in my 20’s! My wife and I gave up soda! All I drink is water with lemon!
Tell us about your bowel movements in your next comment please?
@@usaman7358 Yeah. What did you do for Spring Break?
Cool story bro
Chips => pork rinds or pretzles
ice cream => yogurt with a delicious flavored whey and a plop of cream
cookies => Ghost brand whey has little cookie bits in it, just enough to satisfy the craving
Want more videos like this showing us better options
Seeing the change in your skin health from your old photo to now is crazy. Your skin looks great, my dude! Goes to show what eating clean and healthy can do for you. Now share the skincare routine! 😂
Ice cream for me, I'd use frozen whipped cream and mix in some chocolate powder
Want something creamy like a sundae?
1 scoop of Huel (which is half a serving), a little almond butter, little granola and water mixed in a bowl.
For pasta, i make a beefy bolognese and eat it over steamed broccoli
Did you all know that Thomas holds the world record for ending a RUclips video? .5 seconds and he’s gone. 😂
life without burger? IMPOSSIBLE
I love my burgers’ red Robbin! Burger King ! I’ll get .2 patties
I settle for life without bun. I prefer lettuce wraps even when I'm not doing Keto.
I buy 70/30 1 pound like 5$ that 3 1/3 pound patties seasoned the way I like add cheese for calcium, eat with a fork. What's wrong with that. Buying a 1/4 patty for 6-7$ with God knows what in it seems ridiculous.
As in life….it’s all about choices!😊
Potato chips altnerative is to buy a mandoline. and make some homemade chips.
My dad cuts up chicken breast and coats them with almond flour to make low carb chicken nuggets. They are freaking amazing.
I’m having Boba drink 😂😂😂
I'm surprised the Soda Alternatives did not mention kombucha or water kefir.
I was hoping you will say next best option is beer
How about my go tos?
Fudge popsciles. 40 cal.
Sugar free bbq. 5 cal per tbsp.
Sugar free jello. 5 cal.
Rice cakes. 45 cal.
Spray butter. Soy sauce. 0-5 cal.
Popcorn machine, air popped kernals. 4 tbsp 160 cal.
As someone who loves popsicles, I have one of those typical popsicle trays and I just put water mixed with electrolyte powder (of course a particularly fruity flavor). And boom I have basically a 0 calorie sweet treat
Quest peanut butter cups
What about homemade mayo? My wife makes it with EVO and an egg.
You named brands for the nuggets but completely forgot Magic Spoon for the cereal lol
French fries, chips are bad..very bad regarding with the carcinogen acrylamide. You can do carrot chips at least it would be the least amount of a poison out of them.
Diet soda is my vice. So hard to stop.
Roasted seaweed has replaced chips for that salty crispy taste.
I put pork rinds on taco salads to replace tacos.
When I need a quick meal away from home, I'll just go to a grocery store and get some shredded chicken or turkey breast. Pretty much any store has that on hand, and it's cheap. Deli ends, too.
mustard is the best thing ever for your lungs i love that stuff i use it instead of mayo for a base of sauce
Me too! I put my mustard on everything!
Wow I didn’t know it was good for your lungs. 🫁. I love mustard!
Nothing can replace potato chips. What else is crispy, salty, delicious, without having to bake something yourself? Smoked salmon on a cracker maybe but smoked salmon is expensive.
Non fat chobani greek yogurt with blueberries and a drizzle of honey is something i eat every day. Its like a cheat code for me.
