    I’ve been healing my relationship with food, and the pendulum has swung back and forth with rules and binge eating. These are some healthy foods I love that aren’t trying to substitute another in a restrictive way. What are your favorite health foods and healthy snacks? Comment below and let me know!

    I appreciate the balance you brought to this video!! It can be hard to navigate foods when everything has a good/bad healthy/junk label. Remembering that food can just be food, on any side of anyone's arbitrary lines, can be such a powerful freedom. Enjoy the foods!

    I loved this!! Previously I’ve been really strict with food and only having the most nutritionally maxes out things but I’ve been working on finding where I enjoy the “real” version and where I genuinely enjoy the “healthier” version. I love any kind of bean pasta, Halo Top, rice cakes (with hummus or peanut butter), veggie burgers, those two ingredient pancakes (call me crazy lol) and whole grain breads and tortillas. I’m usually not willing to compromise on baked goods, for me I enjoy my family’s baking as is and I spent too long avoiding it because it had white flour and real butter in it; I’m not willing to do that anymore. Also chocolate, I tried to convince myself I really liked dark chocolate, but I actually don’t like it that much unless it’s got caramel or peanut butter and I’d much rather white chocolate. I like that you’re sharing about your relationship with food and that not every choice has to be the “most nutritious” but also there’s nothing wrong with liking the healthy food. Lately it seems you have to pick between being super perfectly healthy or not enjoying any of the healthier snacks because you’re buying into diet culture. You always hit a great middle ground

    I really like the Birch-Benders Paleo pancake mix, just the plain one but I haven't tried the pumpkin one. Then again I love plain buckwheat pancakes (made with only buckwheat flour which apparently according to other people is awful lol). I will have to try the pumpkin ones though. I also loved Grape Nuts cereal as a child! I also like rice cakes but I prefer the thin ones and I like the ones that are rice and lentil, I'll now use those to have my tuna "sandwich" with. I love mayo but I found out that the soy in most mayo's is no good for me so now I use other "healthier" options (healthier for me, since like you said it's all subjective and arbitrary). Thank you for another awesome video! You're always such an inspiration.

    Great video! There are many healthy substitutes that I like as well or better than the original versions. I know not everyone is a fan, but I really like shiritaki noodles and shiritaki rice. For me, it's all about the sauce and what you put on it. The noodle/rice base doesn't matter as much. I also love the Birch Benders brand. I've never tried the Pumpkin Spice Paleo mix, but will have to look for it, since it's almost that time of year now! I've tried the Protein and Plant-Based Protein mix, and both were good. FlapJacked also makes tasty protein pancake mix.

    Grapenuts, yes (!!!), but I have to zap them (w/milk) to soften a bit first. Sort of like a textured oatmeal.
    Haven’t used margarine in decades. I remember my mom’s story about how (during WWII) margarine was weirdly white & came w/a packet of yellow dye that she, being the eldest kid, was in charge of blending together.
    What will I not swap out? Ice cream! Ice milk is (to me) disgusting. I do enjoy (some) frozen yogurt, and I’ve had a soy milk ice cream sandwich that was good...but if I’m hankering for actual ice cream, I go with the good stuff. To me, that’s Ben & Jerry’s - yum!

There are things I just dont eat along with rice. I'm an american and i need to be careful what i put into my body. We are so unhealthy and it's all in our food. No offense to people who eat anything above. I have disabilities running in my family my husband does too and has seizures and needs to be on the keto diet to regulate it. I'm not a health expert I just know what's good for US and OUR bodies. If your body is happy with oatmeal and rice...starches and carbs that's awesome for you. Not all bodies are the same so I dont need to see value in a food that i dont consider part of my food group.

      @@Chelsyclb I get that --- USA has the highest percentage of overweight people, worldwide. My point was there are health benefits of eating oatmeal, and, actually, in 4 oz it only has 12 g of carbs, plus it can be used to aid in heart health, in an already healthy diet. :)
      Rice has a great deal of vitamins and minerals that are essential to a healthy diet, but I don't really like it, so I don't eat it very often.
      I'm with you, on the fact that food works differently for everyone. Absolutely. I just also think that just because you don't like a certain food or don't eat a certain food, doesn't mean you should go around saying that food is unhealthy -- especially when it FACTUALLY isn't. Does that make sense?
      I wasn't attempting to attack you or anything, was just confused as to why you'd label something as unhealthy as a blanket statement like that.
      For example, oatmeal is used on weight-loss plans and in weight-loss goals, because a little goes a long way towards being full and satisfied, and it provides some assistance with lowering cholesterol, combined with heart-healthy benefits, vitamins, minerals, protein and water consumption.
      You're not bothering me, I was just concerned and wondering. Plus, I wanted to answer your implied question about why it would be considered healthy. :)
