Thanks for showing us your lovely meals. Nice and simple. I had the same success you did by eating as simple as possible. Whole foods only: A Starch, A Veggie. +1/2 cup Beans. I could not believe the results. I did not think I'd ever shed the muffin top. My husband said I'd be taking it to the grave. I'm a senior woman, and I thought I was chasing an impossible dream. Amazingly, I lost that bothersome fat. I love all you young ladies with your channels for reaching out and helping as many people as you can - leading by example. It doesn't matter what age we are - we want to look and feel amazing. And nothing looks as good as healthy feels. (Weight Watchers coined the phrase "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." I changed it a little bit to reflect how I felt when I lost that muffin top.)
Love this!💗
@@broccolista I love your name...is that the cutest, ever!
@@lulusmom1220 Thank you!💗
Congratulations beautiful lady 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🙏🙌🌻
Just wanted to say thanks. This is an awesome channel. But I needed a super simple way to start. I love your A Starch, A Veggie and 1/2 cup beans. I'm currently a type 2 diabetic and I think the legumes will serve me while the one starch and one veg will keep it simple and doable. Thanks to you both.
Loved the first Instagram... Chelsea, what you see as awkward, we see as endearing. NO stylized productions by this gal...she is all about substance over superficiality. If you have not listened to her podcasts, do yourself a favor and check them out..well, over 100 to help you on your journey...this lady knows her stuff. Very well-read and educated. Totally Team Lean With Plants in our home!
This is solid advice! I buy a ridiculous amount of veggies and then challenge myself to eat them all because I hate wasting food 😜
You're absolutely right about pumpkins and other winter squashes, they have half the calories of potatoes and I find them just as filling (and sweeter). I love Kabocha squash, it's sweeter and slightly drier, I just wash it, scoop out the seeds and microwave it without a lid until soft - absolutely delicious and so satisfying you will not want to eat for hours afterwards.
Great info, You now have an old guy hooked on eating better to lose 100 pounds, I went vegan and fell off that wagon and trying to get back into it and having problems with variety. I fell into the junk food vegan items all processed tasty but I know again not good . I love eating different foods but the chore of fixing and finding indgredients suck. Thank you for your videos. I dont know if guys follow you on here or if they are to afraid they eat veggies. But I am here to stay.
Hi Chels! Long-time subscriber here and I switched to WFPB in 10/18. I was thinking it might feel repetitive to you to make these types of videos, but I wanted to say Thank You and please keep making these videos! I love the retrospective look and how it’s clear that the way you ate to lose the weight is basically how you eat to keep it off. I lost just over 30 pounds and when I slip I still get twitchy like I might backslide, forgetting how different my daily habits have become and stayed for over four years now. More than anyone else I follow in the community, watching your videos consistently gets me in the kitchen to make something healthy. Now I’m off to roast some Brussels sprouts. “Eat more veg!”
Well said ! ❤
Yassss! 🙌🏽
Hope you enjoyed the video! 😀

I guess you can use oil at all, so do you use low cal dressings on your veg?
Putting on pause at 4:21 in...going to throw three pounds of russets into the instant pot. LOL You potato-pushing-girl, you! Back...so happy to have a long youtube from the Queen of Plant-Based Weight Loss!
Hey Chelsea! Side note here, as I was watching this great video I kept noticing and thinking “wow! Her arms and shoulders are looking magnificent!” Then you said you are working on them. Great job!
Chels, thanks to you, I am now the proud owner of three baby feijoa trees! One of the seed companies I order from sent an email about the fact that they had feijoa trees "back in stock" (I never knew they had them before!), and after checking to make sure they'll grow in my climate, I ordered three different varieties. So with any luck, this Texan yard will eventually be producing feijoas! I have only ever heard of them when you mention them in your videos, but you seem so excited about them that I had to give them a try! It's cheaper and easier than a flight to New Zealand, although that's still in the long-term plan, too. 😀
You are SO inspirational!!! I have committed to the potato reset in the past and lost weight...but, then I got bored...and back to high calorie foods...and now im back on the roller-coaster 😪😪😪I say I'm going to do it...but, then evening comes around...and I eat very high fat foods....😪
Also, veggies and legumes cause flatulence....but not avocados, potatoes or rice.
But, I have faith...I need to do this, I HAVE TO DO THIS....
Yes! I’m the same. Eat well all day then in the evening I slip! What’s up with that 🙄
@@mindably I know!!!😞🙄
Love this video, Chelsea! I have saved it to watch it a few more times because it pretty much explains everything anyone needs to know about following a low calorie density diet and successfully lose weight. Thank you!💗
Hello, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate this video. I’ve had a hard time and struggled with binge eating but today will be day one of me getting back on track and consistency was always an issue as well but I’m excited and don’t want to restart every Monday lol
I always enjoy your videos and great talk today 😄, in particular I really get a lot out of your calorie density talks! You are inspiring me to apply more calorie density and 'tweaks' to my diet. I've already lost 40 lbs and need to lose about 50 more. Calorie Density is King!! 🤩
FABULOUS!!!!!!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING 🤩
I love this video- very informative! Thanks Chelsea! ❤
Thank you for your wisdom 😊
Great video.
You are the best Chels!!!
Love the video. So inspiring. Thank you Chelsea.
Inspirational. I can’t do that much fibre but do lean on the spuds and rice. Your food bowls always look so beautiful.
You nailed it! You gave word to what I was feeling!
This was so helpful! Glad I found you!
Thank you soooo much for this one❤️ I am maintaining now and struggeling a little finding my level of what to eat to not lose and to not gain. This was very helpful🙏
Thank you Chelsea for sharing the pics of your past bowls. They were so colorful and mouthwatering. This is why you are my #1 go to for ideas.
The picture example of meals was really helpful. Sometimes I think that's the hardest part; figuring out what foods to put on the plate. Thanks!
Just wanted to thank you. You helped me figure out why I was snacking , It was because I was hungry so I swapped the snack food for a potato and problem solved!
It's very helpful to know what you did in different times. But what makes you so helpful is the passion for your aiming to suggest what you really did. Thanks for sharing this passion
You look great. Congrats.
Thanks Chelsea for this inspirational video and interesting information 👍 and love 🥰 it. The Wfpb Stratch solution diet is definitely the best diet for humans. Love 💕 Chelsea & family.
All your meals look delicious! My mouth is watering! Thank you for being so generous with your channel and your content. Great video!!! I learn a lot when I watch your videos. And you look amazing! Greetings from Argentina!
Thanks for explaining this Chels, I see what sets my weight loss goals back is, I'll lose weight feel great then start encorporating vegan processed foods, its hard to be so strict, I take my hat off to you. 👒😍❤️
Please do you do the curly hair girl method? Your hair is amazing!
This was super helpful. Grateful for you. You’re an excellent teacher
I love you!
I am so inspired! Thank you for sharing Chelsea Mae!! Calorie deficit is key, so I don't have to become vegan to see results do I?
You have done fantastic and your such an inspiration but I also think it’s also important to put into perspective that you also just had a baby so had some baby weight on initially which is natural to gain and does come off if you eat healthy postpartum. I see allot of influencers say they were this or that weight but they just had a baby. Which is phenomenal but in prospective.
😊great video. Your meals look so delicious. I’m inspired to meal prep some veggies now. Can you make a video showing what your kids take for school/kindy lunches
Yes that would be fun to see
Do you have a good recipe for hummus and sauces for the bowls
How long did it take for your husband to start following suit with the vegan diet? Thank you for the inspiration!
Is it alright to ask, do you use oils in your meals now to maintain? Also within all your meals/ overall day do you focus on mainly getting in your veggies & potatoes and a small amount of protein or do you make sure to get in protein in each meal? Thanks if your able to answer 😊x
Calorie density and all the wonderful veggies and beans. I am enjoying this way of eating so much. I've lost 4lbs in 2 weeks. I need to get more yummy things to add like spices and houmous. The only downside is that I'm quite farty 😮 does this ease when you are used to it? My lovely friend is doing injections and not eating anything qnd she has lost loads of weight, but it's not healthy and I'm worried about her, I'm hoping that she will see how much I lose and that I'm never hungry she might consider your plan.
Sorry forgot to ask if you drink a lot of water?🌻
Thank you for saying you did not eat grains, legumes, starchy veggies or even fruit doing your reset. This is what I need because I have found that with my petite frame (and being 56 y.o.) the moment I have even one portion of beans or grains a day, weight loss stops (and weight actually goes up). I need to review my way of eating if I want results. Thank you lovely Chelsea xxx
Really curious . . Do you ever eat olives ?
Do you have a video of how you hand coming back from vacation?
I love potatoes but I like them with vegan butter 😫😫😫 or roasted but with Abit of oil on them to crisp Them. Otherwise I find them dry 😭
I make mine in the air fryer (like healthy chips) without oil and then use vinegar and salsa to make them yummier after.
If you cook potatoes whole you could eat them with hommus. I like a Chipotle hommus and salsa mix. Yum!
What about you holesterol?
Chels have you had you blood test for cholesterol? The reason i am asking since I started wfpb diet i did not add any oils to my cooking also no seeds or nuts and my blood was perfect since i added coconut milk to my coffee unsweetened and seeds such as chia, flex and hemph seeds and bit of nut butter my cholesterol went through the roof. So bummed. Waiting on my doctor to call me with a verdict. I stopped all seeds, nuts and nut milk since yesterday. Will see 😢
Wondering what could have caused your cholesterol levels to be elevated. I believe only animal products contain cholesterol. Have you had any dairy products or eggs perhaps? Nuts, seeds, and coconut do not contain any cholesterol.
You might check out Amla Green. Indian gooseberry is good for reducing cholesterol. Even on a WFPB diet, my cholesterol did not go as low as the plant-based docs recommend.
Years before I had read somewhere that on earth coconut water is the only thing that can be substituted for human blood. Looks like it was true. You are a living proof :))
fructose can raise lipids in some people, as well if you lose a lot of weight, you are basically on a high fat diet in that period of time
since you are using bodyfat for energy, what can temporarily raise your blood lipids
@@broccolista Coconut oil/milk could be a culprit, especially if you’re having a lot. It’s mostly saturated fat so can negatively affect your cholesterol.
Oh wow sounds like me
wait.. did you say no bread? Oh nooope lol I can't do it
Ok you keep saying “tons of non-starchy veggies” then show a plate with carrots, beets, corn and then the white and sweet potatoes?!
Does your husband eat this same way.......like the bowls and etc
I have success and still don't trust the process :( I guess it's me I don't trust
If only my appetite got less! Fat chance lol
Dang what about protein tho?
Tofu, beans, hommus, lentils 😋 but all veggies have some protein.
