Here's what I eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner as a French nutritionist, for two full days of eating. I show you what I eat for two days as a nutritionist and vegetarian. This is a real and honest what I eat in a day, even if this obviously varies a lot day-to-day. This does not represent what I eat every day! This is just a realistic what I eat in a day, and I want to show you that I don't obsess over having super balanced meals all the time.
Hope you enjoy this intuitive eating what I eat in a day and that it gives you some ideas!

I want to see 100 more "what I eat" videos of yours.
Aww thank you! More is coming soon !
Same!
I like the fact that you mentioned " emotional hunger"
It's important to listen to it too!
@@Edukalebylucie do you have a video on mental hunger?☺️
Dearest Lucie, you deserve so much more attention. My whole life was about body dysmorphia, and trading one ED for another. I was just about to go down on radical calorie counting, and food fear when UA-cam recommended you to me :)
Yesterday - for the first in a really long time - I was cooking from the bottom of my heart and ate healthy portions enjoying it rather than chugging down in front of the tv. All I can say is THANK YOU
Wow your comment really moved me, it really means a lot, thank you so much and best of luck!
That is beautiful 💞 you deserve to eat the nourishing foods that your body is craving. I hope you continue to cooking and living from the heart!
Im getting ready to stop counting calories
That's great!
Hi I’m overweight and obese can eating curbs but eating balance and portioning help please reply back thank you.
Same:))
@@saralibby4686I'm obese, too. I've lost 75 pounds by changing portion sizes and taking my dog for a 20-30 minute walk every day. It took a year and a half. I have 60 pounds to go. For me, I can't think too much about the weight, but focus on how I feel. It takes a couple weeks to get to the point where you recognize your body and how it feels. They're completely new habits and I have Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, and Degenerative Disc Disease to deal with. I make my food from scratch. I'm a vegan. (THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO BE VEGAN. My husband lost 90 pounds in 6 months by becoming vegetarian, reducing portion size, and walking. He still eats eggs and dairy except he doesn't drink a half gallon of milk every day anymore. Eat fresh foods in normal amounts. Get rid of processed food. Learn what it feels like to be physically hungry. Satisfy genuine hunger, not emotional hunger. Eat slowly. Let it take some time when you develop these habits.This isn't a get skinny fast plan, but it's a stay fit plan for the long term. You will learn to love real food. Things will change faster than you know. Just give your mind the time it needs to adjust.
@@Edukalebylucie Even my nutrionist doesn't tell me to count calories (I'm French and living in France by the way :)
You deserve more recognition. I love your content, its really helping me out with my eating disorder ❤️❤️
Thank you so so much that means a lot, sending you tons of positive vibes and luck!!
@@Edukalebylucie ❤️❤️❤️
I agree! It’s very light and easygoing and normal...😩
Merci dearLucie!!!! France has embraced me my whole life! I love your country!! My Grandfather was European and he spoke and read to me in French.,He was tall and slender and elegant and we would go on walks and he always wore his beret. You are a tall and elegant beautiful lady! Merci!!!🌹🌹
So cool Ann, thanks for watching!!
Girl, finally someone eating breakfast in the morning! Ahahha, love your videos, keep it up! J'adore ton lifestyle, tu gères Lucie :)
Ahaha merci!!
Food obsessed (in a good way!) Scandinavian living in Canada here... Love your videos! It’s inspiring to see the intuitive eating in action and to reminisce about European eating habits. I miss long family meals etc but now I feel inspired to bring more of my traditions into my little family!
That's awesome, thank you!
My husband and I have been into health and fitness for a long time. I also noticed when we stopped counting calories, carbs, fat, etc. I stopped thinking about food obsessively. My husband still counts his protein intake since we became plant based. I feel food is joyful when it is home made and delicious.
Your channel is so wholesome! I really appreciate that you spread the word of nutritious food, home-cooked meals, intuitive eating. I live in the united states and so many people here are obsessed with keto/low-carb and super restrictive diets which they can't maintain long-term!
I appreciate everything about this video even the song in the end . I struggle with shopping at whole food markets cuz I'm trying to eat more whole foods...this was so great because you don't have to be a chef n it can b more simple n tasty I love it
My take away from this video is to eat a hearty breakfast and to pay attention to portion size! What is a typical afternoon snack (forgetting the french word you use)? Also, where did you get the tan sweater you are wearing? It's super cute!
For me it's often a piece of fruit with some nut butter! And I got the sweater from H&M!
The french word is goûter 😉
Your lashes are so gorgeous!
Aww thank you!
I’ve been watching your videos for quite a while now. Tried different things in between… thinking there was no way I could eat like that because I am healing from a dealing with Anorexia for 10 years.
You have been a huge blessing in my life to learn to genuinely give myself permission to eat and how to eat.
Thank you. 💖💕❤️
I’ve just come across your channel and been so grateful to YT for having suggested it! you’re so preciously AT EASE with yourself. genuinely uplifting in these troubled times 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you so much!!
Je suis trop contente d'avoir trouvé ta chaîne!! Je suis une française qui vit en Angleterre depuis plus de 5 ans et mes habitudes alimentaires ont complètement changé, je me suis énormément reconnue dans ta vidéo qui expliquait comment les femmes françaises ne prennent pas de poids, j'ai les mêmes habitudes que les femmes américaines que tu décris alors qu'avant en France c'était tout l'inverse. J'ai trop hâte d'essayer de retrouver des habitudes qui me correspondent beaucoup plus! Merci!!
Merci pour ton commentaire ça me fait très plaisir, bon courage!!
Your videos make a lot of sense to me. The calmer more thoughtful approach rather than the grab and go is making a big impact on my bad eating habits like binging. And this video was especially helpful because I struggle with outlining how I should eat in the day.
I'm so glad to hear that! Best of luck!
Okay, I just discovered your channel and your videos, especially the one on food obsession, are sooooo helpful. Especially for me as I'm recovering from an eating disorder. Merci beaucoup!
Thank you, that means a lot!!
Lovely to see such a lovely healthy girl really eating intuitively xx
Thank you!!
I was surprised how much you do actually eat in a day..
It often depends on the days!
Just found your channel and it is really a lifesaver! I've always had issues with my eating habits at both ends of the scale and I'm trying to find balance again. All the meals looked delicious and your food education is really astonishing, definitely taking notes here! Merci beaucoup mademoseille Lucie
I'm so glad, thank you so much!
Hello Lucie. I commend you for this very honest and helpful video. Yes, eating healthy means appreciating the tastes of foods in their simpler forms: fruits, vegetables; it also means that meals might not look so glamorous on a regular weekday. Loved this video, it is not every day you see so much honesty. I hope you will consider doing more of these. It also helps to dispel the myth surrounding the "French" diet: French people are not having five-course meals every day, with a côtelette of this, a sauce of that, along with cheese and wine and crème brûlée.
I agree!
Absolutely, thanks for watching!
You are doing such a great work!!Just discovered you and I’m obsessed!Greeting from Greece ❤️
Thank you so much!!
I just found your channel- and it is so refreshing. Thank you for taking the time to record these videos. It’s so inspiring :)
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
Just found you channel and I love it. When you lived in the states, where did you live? I would love to see more "What I eat in a day" episodes. I would love to see some videos with your city in them and maybe videos with some of your favorite recipes. Thank you!
Thank you!! I lived near Chicago, and thanks for the video suggestions, when covid is over I will definitely film videos out in Paris!
Please make another what I eat in a day (or preferably week!) I’m watching all of yours again.
You are really taking us back to the way we did things back then. We cooked. Lol. I have been heavy the last 15 years yo-yoing losing weight when I get on diets only to gain again when off diet. And that’s what changed in my life. We used to cook. The last 15 years I’ve been eating mostly out.
I've never thought to do all that with Oatmeal. I've always just had it with brown sugar but I tried it with peanut butter, honey and granola and I love it!!
Glad you liked it!
Wow thank you so much
I'm also starting my healthy eating lifestyle
If you would like can you do a video on becoming a nutritionist
That's awesome!!
Thanks for the video idea I will keep it in mind!
Just found you and i'm obsessed!! I was born in the USA but my parents are from CUBA so i cook ALL my food, but i am learning how to eat more whole foods and you are helping so much! I'm 5'0 ft tall and weight 110 pounds so i'm pretty petite but i have alil lower belly fat and i want it FLAT 😅
Thank you so much, that's so cool to hear!
Sometimes that "pooch" is just your female organs not actual fat. Most women have that on the lower belly. It's usually normal if the rest of the belly is flat.
your skin is so beautiful 😭😭😭
It really isn't in person 😭
Wish you could talk about eating French for a non-vegetarian. The amount of carbs in your 3 meals daily after years will likely lead to type 2 diabetes. Too much carb and sugar with a minimal protein and healthy fats.
That beetroot and chickpea salad looked so simple and good! Definitely going to try it 😍
Glad to hear that!
Thank you for sharing! Binging your videos lol. Do you have a meal plan video? Or something that says all the ingredients to buy to make these different meals.
Thank you so much for watching! The closest video I have to that is this one: ua-cam.com/video/_JAjseeHpW8/v-deo.html and it links the recipe books I use in the description!
i just discovered your channel last night. instantly subscribed.
excited to keep watching and learning from you !
Thank you so much!!
Watching you prepare your meals is very relaxing
Glad you think so!!
I really enjoy your videos, you have a calming voice
Oh thank you!
Im so happy to see that you eat your salad first 🤣👍🏻 I'm belgian, not french but my german husband and his family are thinking this is weird 👀🤣🙈 I tried to explain them, that the salad is sort of an "entrée" ("Vorspeise" in german), but apparentaly it's not common to do it like this over here 🤷🏻♀️🤣
Haha I looove starting out with a salad!
Thank you for sharing such a delightful shame-free approach to meals 😊
Thank you!!
I’m a really picky eater but I don’t want my baby to turn out the same. When you said that Americans have very little variety made me think why don’t I have more variety I thought they didn’t sell the same vegetables here but realize I just skip the variety and have to force myself to try new things and make sure I expose my baby a lot more different foods
That’s a great goal, thanks for sharing!
Fleur d'oranger = orange blossom, but in gourmet shops it's often just called fleur d'oranger, much like we don't translate "herbes de Provence". Using the French names makes us feel very sophisticated. LOL
Awesome recipes, so nutritious and straightforward 🥥 thank you.
Looks very healthy! Thanks for sharing and I’ll come back for more 😍
Thanks for watching!
Loved this! More videos of what you eat in a day please!
Thank you!
Thank you for the video, so much variety. Even with the leftovers. 💕🙂
Thank you for watching!!💜
I never thought of adding orange extract to oatmeal but I'll have to try it! It seems like it would create such a bright and fresh flavor :)
I add that to everything haha I love it!
Love your porridge bowl
Can you please tell us what time do you eat when it’s time for breakfast , lunch and dinner! New subscriber ❤️
I eat breakfast around 9:30 am, lunch around 2:30 pm and dinner around 8:30 pm, but this can vary depending on when I am hungry and what I have planned!
Love your content!!! ❤️
Thank you so much!
Thanks for all your videos ☺️ I really appreciate your sincerity. I am trying not to diet anymore and I want to eat more healthily and mindfully. Wish me luck 🍀
Thanks for watching, and good luck!!
Thanks, I love that chick pea and beetroot salad - I'll add spinach and arugula too. We are cutting back on meat and enjoying more vegetarian dishes.
That sounds great!
I'm definitely making that carrot ginger coconut milk soup. 👍
I'm gonna learn how to make a Canele🤗 and I loved this video sm! very balanced and yummy looking imo 😋
Thank you!
This is super helpful. Love your what I eat videos! Would appreciate a list of spices you use for that soy isolate soak! Would also appreciate more videos like this.
I'd love to see a whole week's worth of meals please 😁
Here's one! ua-cam.com/video/fGVPk4VrXvc/v-deo.html
Awesome meal ideas thanks girl!
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this
It’s new ideas to me for food
It looks delicious
God bless you 🌸
My pleasure 😊 thank you!
I was waiting for that!
Thanks for watching!
Bonjour, merci pour vos vidéos!
Pourriez-vous faire un sujet sur la Ketogenic Diet pour végétarien s'il vous plaît?
Merci.
Merci, je note l'idée!
I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm vegan but have fallen down the junk food hole since I started 7 years ago. I'm really trying to build a better relationship with food. I changed what I ate but not how I ate it. I'm doing really well since just after Christmas, but it really is a case of completely retraining by brain.
Thank you so much, good luck with everything!
Lucie that looks good and you had a Canelé afterwards that’s great 😁
recently found your channel and you've really inspired me to work on my relationship to food :) thank you
I'm so glad, thank you!
Hey Lucie, you should make a video of food you always have in your fridge/kitchen!! Love your videos so far! 🤗hugs from Mexico
Thanks for the video idea!
I’m going to stop counting calories and dieting. I think dieting has kept me fat
That's a great move!
I buy the same enormous canelés box every time I visit Bordeaux, well I am glad to know that it is nutritionist-approved 😄
SO good!!
So glad i saw your Page😊 More of your meals please!😊 what vegetable did you use for your salad?
Thank you!! More is coming! The first salad was lamb's lettuce and the second one was beets!
I’m a bit late but I was wondering, what is (if you have one) your exercise routine? I love all your videos and wish they could last forever!❤️
That video is coming soon! And thank you so much!
Just found your channel. Been binge watching your vids! Its helping me alot mentally Xox bcp d'amour
Thank you so much, that means a lot, merci!!
Could you please write down time of your meals, at what time do you usually have lunch breakfast dinner snacks? Thank you in advance
Is it possible to talk about a day in the life of a nutritionist pre-covid/current covid era? I was thinking about pursuing it, but im also a vegetarian and I'd just love any insight into it :D
Thanks for the video idea!
The French pastry you had for dessert - I tried it once in a patisserie here in Canada - very good but very expensive as apparently the baker was from France. It has such a deep brown sugar/molasses flavour. 😀
Yes it does have a very specific flavor haha!
Cannelé is this amazing desert.
Yes!
Hi! I love your videos you deserve so much more views. I always feel the “need” to end up on something sweet after I eat my lunch and dinner, but I don’t want a fruit or something “healthy” do you have advice? Thanks and keep going!
Thank you so much! You can totally finish up with something sweet that isn't as "healthy" as fruit, like some chocolate or a cookie, if that's what you're craving!
these days i have a bag of dark chocolate chips for baking in my fridge, and if i have that sort of craving i will have a handful and savor them slowly. that has helped me cur down on the volume of sweets i have, haha 🍫
@@lildanggun46 thank you!
@@Tori_lmr No problem! And good luck!~ ✨
Love this video 😍
Thank you!
Amazing , but can I know the quantity of oats , because sometimes I put a lot and binge on oats and make me gain weight
Looks so delicious! Do you buy sweetened cashew butter? I got some the other day without any sugar in it and it's not as sweet as I remember!
Personally, I love soup so looking for healthy soup suggestions
i eat frozen fruit too but i have never thought to put frozen fruit in the microwave and i didn't even know that you can. i get some frozen fruit and wait until it has defrosted on its own and then i eat it. Does the frozen fruit loose any of its nutrition when you put it in the microwave?
Could someone please tell me how many calories approximately was in that delicious breakfast bowl? 😃
I think French people are healthy because they cook with a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables. Your meals always have the vegetable as either the main flavor or it is a significant component. I think French people know how to make vegetables taste delicious quickly. In the US we are all told to eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables (it is supposed to be 9 a day but the US government knows people cannot even eat 5 a day so that is why they set the goal to 5 instead of 9). Many people I know probably don't even eat 1 vegetable a week:( You are always eating a lot of fiber and a lot of antioxidants and phytonutrients. I think you have a very healthy way of cooking with carbohydrates. You use whole wheat a lot of the time so it must keep you healthy. One thing I found fascinating is that you don't eat yogurt with every meal. I thought French people always eat yogurt to stay healthy in their colon? Also can you do a video on how much water you drink, they say the water in Paris has a lot of minerals and that is why people have shiny hair and nails. Do you drink 2 liters of water a day?
T'es trop belle 😍😍😍 and i like your videos keep going 💞💞
Merci!!
Just discovered your channel and I love your videos! As a fellow vegetarian you give me so many meal ideas 😍 I’m also french and I tend to eat the same foods a lot: quiche, gratin, pasta, rice, repeat 😂 so thank you for that! I will definitely keep watching your videos :)
Thank you so much!
Great video! What was the little cake thing called? X
Thanks, it was a cannelé!
Love your videos! What's your meal time usually?
Thank you! I usually have breakfast around 9:30 AM, lunch around 2 PM and dinner around 8:15 PM!
I am also very interested in at what time you eat, like when is for breakfast? when is for lunch? and when for dinner? Thank you!
I usually have breakfast around 9:30 AM, lunch around 2 PM and dinner around 8:30 PM!
@@Edukalebylucie thank you very much for all the videos you made Lucie! I like to watch then while I'm eating to remaind myself eating mindfully, and they're very helpful!
@@fannyzhao9446 Thank you!!
But how do you make these foods taste good? Quinoa, vegetable mixes, what spices or herbs?
I just find your channel, so maybe you explained it already but I'm really curious why you don't mix your meals? I mean for lunch you ate salad at first, then rice then the pasta? I would eat some pasta, then some salad then rice and pasta again 🙃
That's just my personal preference, I like to eat salad first because I'm so used to starting my meals with it!
@@Edukalebylucie thanks for answering! ❤️
Do you check for added sugar in all the ingredients like the soy milk and berries and cashew butter and granola?
I use the same olive oil haha, from your previous videos I somehow thought you live in the US, but actually other products also seems like coming from France... and your pasta looks sooooo delicious, you made me hungry!
Yes I live in France!! Thank you for watching!
Thank you always for your (10000%) helpful videos😭🙏🏻 10 years ago I had an eating disorder and even nowadays sometimes I am so scared of gaining weight. It has been like two years that I eat everyday more than 50 gum pieces, first it was because of anxiety that I still have diagnosed but now is like I cannot stop this bad habit. It takes so much money and gastrointestinal problems... I tried so many times but I cannot quit from gums... Could you tell me some advice please? I would appreciate it a lot❣️ merci 🍀🙏🏻
Thank you so much, that means a lot! Could you maybe try to replace the gum with fruit, veggies, or nuts to snack on? Please don't hesitate to get help!
@@Edukalebylucie on the contrary, thank you so much to answer!🥺 I have already tried but I couldn't. Because of my anxiety, i need like permently being chewing. I hate this situation 😭
Do you have a blog or video that explains about how the french eat a "variety" of food in a month? I am now following the french food pyramid-steps, actually, and run out of ideas.
I know I need to probably explore the grocery store I go to a little more but I just get so overwhelmed. I have also kind of read the julia child's book and watched her videos... 🤷.
What would you suggest for someone who doesn't really like to eat in the morning? I get up around 5 to start my day but I really don't get hungry till around 6 or 7 and I'm a truck driver so I can't go through all this stuff after I've already started my shift.
I'm very curious if you could find all your food that your used to in the US? I'm as German and Vegetarian had to skip.so many things in the US, but i do eat sometimes fish, and since my PapsInlaw was fishing himself, the fish there is amazing!
And i had my Sis sending me package with stuff I missed and couldn't find lol
No there was so much I couldn't find!! I missed French food in the US and now I miss certain American foods in France haha
This just proves that carbs are NOT the enemy!
You are totally right, they absolutely aren't!!
That oatmeal would fill me all day
It is very filling indeed!
I love ur channel new subscriber here ☺️
Yay thank you!
Is soya milk truly healthy? I'd like to switch but I've heard bad things x
It is, especially if it is unsweetened, I made a video on soy if you're interested! ua-cam.com/video/Jb4xtoD1dJc/v-deo.html
Hey Lucie! Do you have any tips on how to feel less guilty for eating unhealthy foods, even if it's not every day and a small amount? I just had a brownie and lara bar and I feel SO guilty, even though I ate healthy throughout the day.
Here's a video I made on food guilt! ua-cam.com/video/JKvT3lxauxw/v-deo.html
Hi, could you please provide some good options for diabetics? Is there a way to eat carbs (bread and pasta specifically) as a diabetic perhaps combining them with something else?
Love your videos. They are very comforting. I feel like I am too addicted to sugar to be eating intuitively right now, but hopefully by the summer I will get used to eating less carbs and it will feel more natural
Thank you so much, don't hesitate to check out my video on food addiction: ua-cam.com/video/EGcgc9AI-cE/v-deo.html
best of luck!
