14:08 Mmh I'm not sure that you should weigh your food after putting it in the air fryer. I might be mistaken but in France they give you the weigh of the package you bought, lets say 400g of marinated chicken and give you the number or calories for 100g, lets say 130kcal for example. So the whole bag would be 520kcal. If After being cooked in the air fryer you only have 350g of chicken, the 65kcal didn't just dispareared, the water dispareared and it doesn't have any of the calories. If you use plain chicken breast, or anything that is not processed the number or calories is usually for raw food, not for cooked foor so here again it should be weighed before being cooked otherwise you underestimate your calories by a lot.
Yeah I agree, I’m pretty sure you are supposed to weigh things raw not cooked because the moisture content (and therefore weight) will change depending on how you cook it, so it’s not accurate to weigh once cooked
Thanks Jen for the new ideas for healthy, high protein meals. I'm going to try more bowl meals. Congratulations on your success so far. We are proud of you. Happy weekend, Margaret !
You're such an inspiration! I failed at my new years resolution "healthy lifestyle". To see your progress...wow!! You look amazing. Your face is looking so slim! Keep it up! Love following!
Congrats on your progress queen! 🤩🤩20lbs is UNREAL !! I'm sooo happy for you! I really love watching your videos and how you prepare your meals, they're so motivating!
Hey, happy that you're doing great on your journey. Just some info- nutrition on the packet is ALWAYS (unless otherwise specified) for food before cooking. So for nuggets the nutrition is for before you bake them. They obviously will loose some water (zero cals), but if you weigh them after, the 5 oz will actually have more calories. So, if you have 5 oz before cookin, the same 5 oz will be lets say 3,5 oz after cooking, not 5. So, if you want the actual calories, you need to weigh them before. If you don't care, then ypu don't need to 😂 Good luck on your journey, I'll be joining in in September 🤪
Applesauce pouches are my favorite even as a 32 year old. I even eat baby food sometimes especially if my stomach hurts. The Gerber Hawaiian delight is delicious. Ate it as a baby and still love it. Everyone in my family does weird probably lol. I remember an elderly lady always came in and bought carrot baby food and my curiosity got the best of me and asked if her grandkids really like it. Kinda cringe that I asked but she said she uses it for carrot cake lol
For those that are concerned about the calories in salad dressing here is an idea- after you measure your salad dressing put it and the entire salad in a zip lock bag and shake it. This distributes the salad dressing over ALL the salad. You may find you can cut back on the amount of dressing you need doing it this way:)
Hi Jen - you do such an amazing job dealing with family likes/dislikes/demands as a FT working mother/wife - you should get an award. I sensed you were a bit down on yourself this video. The best advice, whether you are up or down or losing weight - is daily, count all the blessings you are thankful for. Get outside every day and walk some, and look at each day as adventure. Blessings.
I bought the real good chicken tenders from Walmart. I really like them. I also weigh it after cooking. I bought some Baby Ray's Garlic Parmesan sauce at Wal-Mart a couple of months ago. Some Wal-Mart's don't carry it. It is absolutely delicious. A little bit goes a long way. I used it all and couldn't find any more. I ended up ordering it from Amazon in a larger size. I love it on the chicken tenders and also put some on rotisserie chicken for a quick protein meal.
Hi Jen, great video, I love those Rompers. I bought one from QVC and it’s so comfortable. Very nice and a great item to take on a vacation. I bought an Extra Large carry all Tote Bag from QVC called Lug. If I can travel in the future, I am going to take a carry on only. I love how you showed us how to roll your clothes to save space. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.
I’ve not seen that flavor of salad kit at my Aldi. I buy those a lot but mix it with some iceberg lettuce or romaine for my salads. All the meals looked delicious.
OMG LO Kiera!!!....my sister will eat every pasta except SPAGHETTI ....the noodles remind her of worms. Congratulations Jen....you look amazing!!! Thank you for all the protein ideas!!!
Loved the video. Jen, you show so many flavorful healthy meals and they look so appealing. Love your hair color. Hope you show your Taylor Swift merch in an up coming video. Take care. Thanks so much for taking your time to share.
I've, within the last year, had to go on a low sodium diet. Most "convenience foods" even those considered "healthy" or lower in calories are basically just salt. When I started looking at my salt intake I was blown away by how much sodium is in a lot of things you'd never expect to be salty. The Real Good brand nuggets are some of the best I've found sodium content wise and they're really yummy! I like to put them in a wrap with home made tortillas for lunches.
Thanks for mentioning that. I’ve been hesitant to try too many items of the Real Good brand cuz it’s pretty pricey but the low sodium component is good to know.
I feel like for the left over smoothie you could put it in a souper cube and it would freeze nicely. My niblings are not fans of pb&j's either! What is up with these kids?
I’m weird with beef too. A lot of the times the smell grosses me out or if I think about it will make me nauseous. Lol idk why, it’s just always been that way.
I'm weird about beef as well. I stopped eating red meat when I was 18 - I'm many years beyond that now but I will eat Taco Bell tacos, BK Whoppers, meatballs and oddly meatloaf. What I figured out is that it is a smell and textural thing especially with hamburger. I still like the taste of BBQ'd steak but after a couple of chews and the flavor is gone I want the meat in my mouth gone.
Rompers never work for me, tall girl problems, but they r cute. My 3 kids have never liked peanut butter and jelly anything either. I’ve moved to keto and the amazing thing about it is I’m so glad to be off carbs and sugar. (So I wouldn’t do PB or jelly anymore) People have negative reactions to keto thinking we all eat bacon and pepperoni all day, but keto can be healthy foods like salmon, olive oil and good veggies. I just like being off the sugar struggle bus.
It’s a texture thing. I can’t eat burgers. It just has a weird gross fat then stringy texture. Meatloaf or meatballs never. Again weird texture where it’s overly soft and then you get a random piece of bone or gristle. Even knowing it might happen freaks me out. I’m leery of all meat but at least poultry has less texture and depending on how a protein is cut you can avoid a lot of mystery texture. So deli ham okay but no pork chops. Unfortunately I’m even worse about fish. 😂
I was weird about red meat too as a kid. I never ate burgers or anything like that; not even taco meat. I've been pescatarian for about 16 years now. Burgers are still weird...especially the impossible meat. 😂
I was not a fan of that chicken. The real good or whatever it’s called. I had the tenders and thought they were really dry and had no flavor. They were expensive too for a tiny bag. I wouldn’t buy them again

As I’m watching your weight loss video, I’m here making homemade Oreos, thinking, man, I should make better choices like Jen. Lol. 😂
I'm making spaghetti and a turtle brownies so I get it lol
just incorporate intermittent fasting and you can enjoy all the things
😂😂
You are beautiful inside and out. Don't ever change.
So proud of you. You are inspiring me to get on it with regards to eating healthy. Thank you Jen.
These are my favorite vlogs! I’m always looking for healthy eating ideas.

Everything you cook looks so scrumptious! Ty
The Siete wedding committees are awesome. I am getting my latest Thrive box tomorrow! Can’t wait.

Can you tell a difference with the iron patches ? Also what brand do you use ?

Yummy meals! We make Greek salad bowl once a week. Try it with ground lamb, so yummy with tzatziki sauce on top. Although probably more calories 🥴
your highlights look really nice 😊
❤the siete cookies are awesome! I just bought some of those. Yum
Speaking of Aldi
I bought the best cheese there this week. It’s roasted garlic with tomato basil. Semi soft cheese. . Very good
You could freeze the leftover chocolate ice cream mixture into fudgsicles pops.
Do you like the iron patch? I’ve been taking oral iron and have been considering the patch but read that they don’t work well.
We will see if it works well, but for now I like it because it’s not giving me an ulcer 😂
Do you have a recipe for the chicken soup?
Yes please! It looked delicious!!!
OMG LO Kiera!!!....my sister will eat every pasta except SPAGHETTI ....the noodles remind her of worms. Congratulations Jen....you look amazing!!! Thank you for all the protein ideas!!!
I like all the G Hughes sauces that I have tried. Plus they are gluten free for my non-celiac gluten sensitive daughter which is a bonus!
Yay for rompers!!! Love them!
Loved the video. Jen, you show so many flavorful healthy meals and they look so appealing. Love your hair color. Hope you show your Taylor Swift merch in an up coming video. Take care. Thanks so much for taking your time to share.
I’m just curious at your kids wellness checks do they ever talk about your kids weight?
Love these videos! Gives me motivation to keep going. I'm trying to lose 50lbs. 😊
❤️❤️❤️ awesome xx
Wow thank you so much!!!

In Wisconsin I don't have a Scooter's but I have Caribou Coffee, do you have those and if so, how would you rate it?
Heel Jen
I love love your video
Your recipes are great
#?
We have hypertension
Can you make some low sodium meal and suggestions?
Thank you
I feel like for the left over smoothie you could put it in a souper cube and it would freeze nicely.
My niblings are not fans of pb&j's either! What is up with these kids?
I just recently switched to drinking green tea. The good stuff from the Asian markets.
My daughter is similar. Grown now but still is weird about certain meat. Says it’s more of a texture thing. Has always been this way.
Try your peanut butter n jelly toast with some cream cheese yummy 😊
Stop it! 😍😍😍 order 17 more of those rompers in every color! 😍😍😍😍
I’m weird with beef too. A lot of the times the smell grosses me out or if I think about it will make me nauseous. Lol idk why, it’s just always been that way.
Happy Friday dear friend
You too!!

I love green chef . congrats on your loss.
My husband introduced peanut butter toast with syrup…everyone in my family loves it so might get your kids on the PB toast bandwagon!
Well done!
Do you still wear your retainers?
Yep I wear them every night :)
@@Jen-Chapin I have to wear mine 24/7 except to eat.
Jen and family have a great weekend have fun thanks from Oklahoma

Congratulations on the weight loss! Twenty pounds is a full clothing size. Shopping haul loading? 😊

My dad eats peanut butter toast dunked in chocolate milk every single day for breakfast.
Just dropping in to say I don't really care how you pronounce Worcestershire sauce. Congrats on the healthy lifestyle changes. You are awesome.
❤❤❤❤
Your hair is really crazy today lololo
You look great!
I was not a fan of that chicken. The real good or whatever it’s called. I had the tenders and thought they were really dry and had no flavor. They were expensive too for a tiny bag. I wouldn’t buy them again
❤
Agree that Dunkin coffee is trash (and I live in Boston, so that is blasphemy around here)
Awesome meals. You're doing amazing. Hugs friend Elissa modesto cali @elissa_tc
