    In this video we'll also discuss how low-calorie, high-fiber foods can directly and indirectly impact your calorie input and output, and even though there are no ‘fat loss foods’ these are some of the best to help you do that!!
    Some of my favourite options are tomatoes, bananas, pumpkin or squash, rice, and avocados. The goal is to help you create meals that are optimized for consistency and overall improvement of your current habits, rather than solely focusing on eating the lowest calorie foods you can.

    My favorite thing this week is a lb of steamed broccoli florets topped with a simmered marinara sauce loaded with onion, mushrooms, and chickpeas! I top it with a 1/4 of an avocado- and maybe have a few air fried potato dipper wedges along side! I love your videos- you really helped jump start my plant based journey!

      So interesting, thank you for explaining things! I’m around 2 weeks in, with 2 60th birthday celebrations in between 😝 but have managed to stay fairly consistent ( apart form Chinese meal) and already I’ve lost around 6lbs. I know it’s probably my ‘ recent’ weight first and things will slow up, but it’s given me motivation to carry on, and I love all these foods. I have also cut out bread, which has made a big difference. Wish me luck, another birthday celebration this weekend, they want pizza take out! So will be taking my veggie components. Thanks again Chelsea.
      Ps it’s funny, we were on holiday in Greece this year, and our hotel buffet didn’t have a lot of vegan choices as such, as mains. So my husband and myself found ourselves choosing what we could, which were veggie sides, salads, which tended to be a big pile on our plates! Although being on holiday you tend to drink wine etc too we found that when we got home, we actually hadn’t put on any weight, which was a first! So now I’m following this way of eating, I’m thinking now, there was something in our food choices then 🤔

    You are so right about rice. It’s a great diet food. Always a half hour away and no peeling and chopping and checking on the saucepan. You can go for a walk and come back to a meal. I put nori, tomatoes, half an avocado and soy and sushi vinegar on my rice. It’s a delicious meal with minimal prep.
    Another staple is my smoothie bowl with two bananas and frozen berries so lots of fibre and with cocoa nibs sprinkles and chopped nuts. I add protein powder to my smoothies. I aim for higher protein than you do as protein also aids with satiety.
    Pumpkin is delicious and an easy side instead of potatoes. You can bump up the sweetness with maple syrup and spices for a sort of pumpkin pie dessert.

    Rice is definitely comforting and much quicker and easier than other starches...... and pumpkin is sooo delicious it's insane that some varieties have less calories than broccoli!!! I absolutely LOVE it with cinnamon, makes it taste sooooo sweet😋😋
    Avocado has virtually the same calories per pound as chickpeas! Very eye opening hey!!!!! Prob a different TEF given the fat content, but not a deal breaker vs a jar of peanut butter 😂😂

    I actually lose weight eating avocado on toast for breakfast and I gain weight eating too many starchy veggies or beans. Avocado only has a few more calories per lb than beans and you tend to eat more beans than avocado. The recommended portion of avocado is 2 tbsp or about 1/4 or 1/3 avocado, as long as you stick to that your will not derail your weight loss efforts.

    I started missing potato salad, as I remembered it, and got off track by trying the "healthy" mayos in the store. It didn't work, but if I cut up, or take a "masher" to the cooked potatoes, add some avocado, and some of that great no salt stone ground mustard, garlic granuals, hot pepper flakes, and whatever vegis.. finely chopped red onion, celery, etc. I love this with some regular salad on the side... hot or cold, and feel very satisfied. I agree that some avocado gives me some fat, and is satisfying, and fills that need/desire for mayo/dressing that I remember. I have had some dehydrated soup vegis in the past, and when I rehydrated them... they were great in the 'potato salad' mix. Thanks for helping keep my creative juices flowing, and helping me stay on track.

I am thinking of seriously starting to eat this way you recommend.
