What helped me with this was planning my whole day of food on my fitness pal a day in advance, add snacks into your daily calorie goals. If you have an extra snack that’s not already tracked, just track it, that will either motivate you to stick to the plan better or you can always eliminate a snack you had planned later in the day🙂
I absolutely love food and eating it. It has been a comfort for me and also cures any boredom i may have. I would over eat until i was stuffed and eat again as soon as there was just a little bit of room and i would eat anything i wanted. With that being said, THAT compared to snacking is a huge difference. So if my tactic can work for me, it might be able to help you. Food and the relationship we have with it activates the reward sensor in the brain so if you can try to force yourself to start viewing food as fuel instead of a reward, a relationship or whatever it may be, you might be able to not have such a hard time. That helps me a lot not only to stop over eating but also to make wiser food choices. I started looking at unhealthy foods as sludge and starting looking at my body as a high dollar car and told myself to take care of it because its valuable. Don't put sludge in your Lamborghini girl lol I hope this helps :)
have you suffered from any body dysmorphia since losing a lot of weight? I have lost 20 pounds since my journey began, and that 20 pounds has changed my body drastically, but some days I look in the mirror and see myself when I was at my beginning weight, and it can be very debililating.

Most of the time I'm okay but there are days where I feel like poop and get frustrated with myself if I get off track/miss a gym day due to my mental health) You are such an inspiration! You've helped me change my life habits for the better and I'm just so thankful for all the hard work you and Greg put into your products! Love you guys
Mari! Omg I’m like fan-girling you right now! I’m 5”10 too and I hate searching for inspiration on UA-cam and never being able to find anyone whose body can relate to mine and inspire me. I’m 162lbs and I ALWAYS beat myself up over it. I couldn’t believe you weigh in the 160’s too! It really put my head on straight, realizing how amazing you can look and to start comparing my success with those who are the same height and body type as mine! Thanks for the inspiration girl. You look stunning ❤️❤️❤️ Keep posting !
Shanice Margaret I totally agree! I’m 5’11 and weight 170lbs and felt so embarrassed about it because I truly have no one to relate to. All my friends are like 5’5. So happy we’re all in the same boat!

Stop saying “starting in November” or “starting blah blah” START TODAY! It’s hard to start because people say they will start this day or this day, instead of IN THE NOW. Good luck!!!! Hope you started because it’s November!!!!
Tracking is so important, at least when starting out. It's also a good habit to create. I was shocked at how many calories and carbs I was consuming on the regular! I've lost 20 lbs in 10 weeks, but it wouldn't of happened if I hadn't been tracking/counting my macros. Great video, Mari! You are so informative. ♥️
I developed an eating disorder tracking calories, maybe it worked for you but till don't promote it, younger people are going to see this and count, and that's how it all started for me. Please be careful at what you say

Omg I start my cut next Monday! I’ve been reverse dieting/bulking for the last three months and now I want to cut for the next few weeks to lose some fat and hopefully reveal some of the new muscles I’ve built.
I would love to see a video about staying on track and dealing with holidays and the parties and festivities that go along with it (which seem to last for months!) thanks for the great information and motivation, love your videos!❤️
I started my fitness journey January 5th 2021 and I have lost no weight so far. I'm 5'3 - 233 lbs. I want to be 170-180 nothing too crazy but I also want muscle. I have been watching your videos for a couple of days now and they have really helped. ❤️ Thank you for the motivation.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE talk about mindset! That is my number one struggle! I know what to do to lose weight but I just can’t get my head in the game! I am dying to know your tips and tricks for mindset!!!
I am at the gym rn doing some cardio and your mari fitness guide when I saw your UA-cam notification I stopped playing my music automatically and pushed on your video 😂❤️ your so motivational to watch! I love you girl 💞
I would like to see a full week of the weight training workouts you do and how hard you push yourself. I'm very interested in weight training and I have started doing some weight training workouts. I need some inspiration/encouragement that I am doing it correctly. Love your intro and your videos by the way! ☺️💜
It would be super helpful if you did a video where you showed how you count your calories. I get really frustrated especially when it comes to cooking because I don’t know if I have to count every single ingredient in/ how to know the portions. Thank so much!
In terms of nerves and anxiety, do you ever have mental breakdowns at the gym? Asking for a friend... Do you power through it and continue your workout or do you draw a line and tell yourself it's time to go home?
Good question! Usually I feel worse if I 'give up' on myself an leave. So I'll try to push through after a bathroom break, if it gets worse then I'll go home and maybe go for a run in a less crowded/anxiety provoking environment!
I have had breakdowns when I'm having an off day. Sometimes I just cant do as well as i usually do and i break down. I go to the locker rooms to try and calm down. Have cried quite a few times. Most times i can try to push through it and cry the entire way home.... if i get too bad, i leave, take a day off and come back to redo that days workout so I know I completed it the best I can. It makes me feel better.
misselizabethcady I sometimes get anxious at the gym when working out and I will generally just take things a little slower but sometimes I just have to stretch it out and leave to help my anxiety! Really good question by the way! 😊
Love the slower approach to cutting that seem more realistic. For some reason listening to this video helped relieve some of my anxiety surrounding losing body fat. Thanks hun!
OH MY GOD. My height is the same as yours!!! And I’ve been struggling with my weight since I was 14 because I used to model… I always thought I needed to weight less to look like you, but OMG this is LIFE CHANGING
This came at the perfect time! I just started your program Saturday, waiting on the supplements. You answered my questions! So thank you! I “run” like this too. Your awesome! Your posts have helped me so much!
Can you do a video on how to properly use weight training equipment at the gym? I have access to a gym and I would love to learn how to start the weight training process
I struggle with motivation one minute I’m at the gym doing really good and the next I just don’t want to anymore and it’s hard to get that motivation back :(
Nobody is motivated all the time, but that's the difference between winners and losers. Winners fall but they never quit. While others do it,you can do it too. Even better😜☺❤
I just wanna say I absolutely adore you omg, i found you a while ago and i totally forgot about the channel and recently found you again and you’ve been helping me so much in so many areas of my life. You’re super real, and give actual help and show how you do everything without trying to get something out of it!
Might sound weird but rundning longer distances really helps with getting good at running. I used to hate running but when running 6-8 km+, I started loving it.
I've just started my calorie deficit again after so much going on this year. Possible question which is a bit personal that you could help and give advice with. How to manage when it's time of the month? (Sorry men on here) I struggle so much with wanting the wrong foods, bloating etc. How do you overcome if you maybe get similar issues. I love all that you do and can't wait for UK shipping launch for Bloom!!!
Some dietitians do videos on such subjects , in general try to eat leafy green such as brocolis or spinach, increase your magnesium and omega 3 intake, avoid refined carbs will help your pms, bloating, and cravings for junk food.
I'd love to learn how to say no to bigger portions and unhealthy snacks! Mentally I find it very hard to discipline myself and food places don't make it any easier when they give you deals on doubling your food 😭
You are amazing!! I love the way you run your company and how much better I feel after watching and reading everything you put out there. Don’t ever stop being you
I weigh the exact same as you! Except im 5'2" so yeah I have a ways to go. Im gonna buckle down and see how much i can loose before thanksgiving and my bday
heyy, i just found your channel! i am a runner (half marathons and planning on doing marathons) and i will definitely try Bloom Supps! you are so inspiring
Hi Mari! I would love to see a video on how you use the bloom products in particular to the protein. I just put my first order in for a couple bloom products and would like to know which is the best way to use the protein. Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you for your continuous motivation!
Irenes Journey hey! I bought a scale on amazon that actually tracks your body composition. It tell you how much fat, water and muscle your body has. It was not that expensive compared to other nice ones. It is a Renpho scale. The reviews were great and I have had it for about a year and it is extremely accurate. They have an app that bluetooth connects to the scale and so you open the app, step on the scale and then then all the info will show up on your phone and tell you if your levels are low, normal, or high and it also keeps track of everything, each time you weigh yourself. The app has trend graphs. Its honestly really cool
Hi Mari, I am a 16 year old girl and I am very insecure about my body and especially my legs. every day when i look in the mirror i feel so ugly. I try to eat less and also exercise, only when I look at myself in the mirror again I still feel fat. I'm really getting desperate and sometimes have days when I don't want to look in the mirror at all. Do you have a few tips on how to burn fat from my thighs? i would really appreciate it. all tips are welcome, it would really do me good and I hope you see this because I can't look at myself anymore. I would appreciate it so much
I know you already have so many videos of full day of eating but I just love watching them so much and I would love to see another one of those from you! And possibly another video of cooking with chef Greg because not only is it entertaining 😂 but super helpful and sparks inspiration for me in the kitchen! You guys are awesome btw love you Mari! 💕
I love this video! I was just going on a run and thank you so much for the tip because I always go too hard and dread going to the gym. You are such an inspiration to me and I admire your fitness and being able to do all this for yourself. You're so amazing!
Mari Fitness i love YOU! Thank you for everything you do, literally!! I‘ve been doing your Gym Guides and they‘re amazing! You and Greg are both so beautiful inside and out!❤️
Make sure you eat enough "healty" calories. If you eat enough of that in a day you would be full and maybe not crave those fast foods anymore. What helps me, every time i crave fast food or wanna go binge eating make sure you got veggies in house like cuccumber or carrot. When you feel a craving comming up you can eat those veggies and not gain a lot of calories
Don’t lower your calories to drastically and don’t be too strict . I struggled w / binge eating and what helped me is doing a kinda 80/20 . I eat chocolate , donuts everyday or try and fit sth in I crave instead of going for the low calorie protein options . That way I still achieve my goals but I do not feel deprived of anything . Also I still crave fast food but I tell myself that I am grateful that I get to choose healthy options and embark on this journey and , that way I get excited to go for a healthy option over processed foods because of the way it makes me feel :))
i am a big fan of weighting myself everyday. i did this for 10 years. i think it depends on why you do this. i was never in a diet. i just wanted to have a comparison without any pressure while training hard and gaining muscles. anyway, throughout this i know how much your weight can be influenced through the cycle you are in (as a woman), how much water/ salt/ carbohydrates / sleep you had yesterday. because i know my body so well, i can not recommend to wheigt yourself once a week or every two weeks. it says nothing.
You are such an inspiration and extremely motivating! The camera loves you and you're a natural at vlogging. I am so excited to get started with your plans and will be purchasing soon. Keep up the amazing work! Greg too! Yall are top notch! I especially love the full day of food videos because i struggle with what to eat. Love that u eat white rice too! 🤩👍👍👍
I don’t know whether just eating what I want is good? I eat very healthily meal wise but snack on sugary things often. I have tried snacking healthily, fruit with almond butter, little bits of dark chocolate, nuts & seeds, etc. But no matter what the snack how nice it is or how much of it I eat, I always still want that one unhealthy snack. Is it better to just eat the unhealthy snack to begin with , say, a chocolate bar? Rather than overeat all the healthy snacks and end up eating too many calories & still craving the unhealthy stuff?
I started my weight lose in March of 2020 at 176 pounds and it's now January 2021 and my weight is now 154 pounds I have now learned eat healthy drink more water exercise it's a walk around the house and outside I only get on the scale once a week because I find if I get on scale everyday that will make me frustrated this video helped me a lot to understand weight loss and I want to say thank you ❤❤💜💜💖💖💗💗 p.s I eat 3 small meals a day I add vegetables fruit some Meats and some nuts and I also eat salads the old me would not eat a salad the new me love salads now 🥗🥗🥗😋😋😋❤💜💖💗
Mari! How long should we wait until we decrease our calorie intake again? A week? Two weeks? And what is a healthy amount of calories to eliminate? Like for example, if you eat 2000 cal. a day, and you decrease by 100 so that you're eating 1900 cal., how long do we do that before we decrease again, and how much is too much cutting?
Yaass girl love it! I totally agree with you in a cut as well posting a bunch on my channel this month on diet! So excited for what I eat in a day videos!
Question! Do you still allow yourself to have cheat meals even if you hit a plateau? Would also love to know more about how many bulk / cut phases you’ve gone through and how long they were / how much your body changed in each phase.
Thanks for all your advices . i made the mistake and cut down too much (under 1500kcal) and never made it longer than 2 weeks, Hope with cutting just 200kcal i make it longer! (Greetz from Germany)
Question! So you mentioned when starting out, we should eat as many calories as possible and slowly decrease to encourage better results. I’m not sure how many calories I started out at, probably like 2,000 per day. But I’ve cut it down to 1,200 most days. So of course I am losing weight but now I’m wondering how to go about correcting this! Starting to go to the gym, mostly cardio and some weights. How should I adjust my calories now? Slowly increase? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Thanks 💗
Kristen Jeffries Drink ACV Daily diluted. Try OMAD. Drink 1 glass of water before you eat. You’d most likely be a bit fuller. When you think you’re hungry drink water. Most times your thirsty not hungry. Stop eating after 8pm. Be consistent ! Make it a lifestyle not a diet.
Cralisa Victoria why stop eating after 8 pm . I don’t mean to be disrespectful but that is total bs ! Your body has no “ clock “ so it really doesn’t matter when you eat , as long as you eat in a deficit / maintenance. You can try to eat intuitively and eat when you are hungry and stop whenever you are full . Drinking a glass of water is actually a good idea because you normally are thirsty and not hungry . If you want to start tracking your food , I’d suggest downloading a calorie counting app and tracking what you eat for a day . If you maintained your weight for the last months you know that this amount is what you need to maintained your weight . If are gaining weight you can start lowering calories up to about 20% . You can also go onto macrocalculator.com and have your calories calculated manually . You can then distribute those calories over the course of the day / how ever many meals you want to eat . If you have any other questions feel free to ask . I hope that helped :)
Maybe tips for eating meals in the dining hall at college. When I'm home I feel I snack less and eat better but at my school, it can be hard to eat healthy without literally eating a salad and chicken every night or rice and chicken.
Perfect timing! I wanted to start cutting. I’m on week 7 on guide 1. I’m definitely getting a lot stronger but not losing much fat. I used to do a good bit of cardio (Peloton 2-3x a week and running). Wondering if I need to add in cardio again.. should I do HIIT or steady state cardio? I’d love to get meal ideas! Any thoughts on intermittent fasting?
I really follow you from long. Love you girl. I have seen your whole journey. Can't wait to be more motivated with you.😍😍😍❤🥰🥰🥰bw you're like a barbie doll.
Monica Guadalupe Garcia I watched an old video of hers that said she started off doing weight training for a few months bc she did not workout previously and that was enough. Eventually she plateaued and incorporated cardio for 15mins 3-5 days a week along with weight training. Hope this helps!
I literally ate 3,000 calories yesterday, I'm 6' female, 145 pounds idk whats wrong with me. I've got a stomach condition called SIBO that makes me not absorb nutrients that well but wow I didn't realise I was eating that much..
omg your teaching me so much it’s not even funny, i cut my calories DRASTICALLY for my weight and height from about 2000 calories to 1200 what was i thinking honestly
I really want to take supplements from bloom but I live in Belgium and it doesn't get shipped there yet and the creditcards from Belgium also don't work on most American sites 😭
I want to know what you did in the start of a diet how much hour did you track how much did you do hiking and what was your team to team and what did you eat in the starting
Hi! I'm a college student and I eat my meals at my school cafeteria because it is much cheaper. I started avoiding bakery in the morning and I put more veggies on my plate at lunch and dinner with some kind of meat (we usually have fried chicken breast) and a small salad on the side(they only have small ones available). And sometimes I take a chocolate muffin or a chocolate bar to eat at home later(I have a sweet tooth 😂). It's really frustrating not knowing if I'm in a deficit or not, and if I am,by how much exactly because I can't measure my own food. I wanted to ask do you have any tips for a college student like me to make sure they are in a deficit while eating in a cafeteria, and how to maximize my protein intake without protein shakes. I want to lose fat and keep and gain muscle, so I am getting into the routine of going to the gym. Not sure will you see this comment, it's definitely a bit of a long one, but just want to add that I'm really thankful for everything that you do ❤️
Just jumping in to share my opinion :) Add more meat, chicken, fish and protein-dense plant products such as tofu and beans to your meal (preferrably not fried). Also, instead of having muffin every night, try to switch to dark chocolate bar maybe? It's still as yummy imo, minus all the extra carbs from flour & sugar & butter in muffins. Once you get used to cutting muffins/cakes/sweets, try to switch it up with banana or blueberries (which imo are equally sweet and satisfying). Sugar addiction is real (you can read all about it) so try to slowly cut down on added sugar. Also, no soda/packaged juice/sweetened drinks :) I guarantee after 2 weeks you'll notice pretty obvious difference! Eating clean on budget/limited food option is challenging but definitely possible. Good luck :)
Hey love, I couldn’t help but notice... don’t you think 1900 calories for maintenance is pretty low considering you’re 5’11? The average female (5’5ish) maintenance is 1900-2000 cals. I’m 5’5, an avid runner and I maintain on 2400 ish cals. You’re really tall, so I was just shocked. Maybe work on increasing your cals and subsequently metabolism so you can eat more and maintain if you’re interested in that? Love your channel! Xx
I have trouble finding side dishes for my meals. I always do meat and some greens but the sides is where I struggle because I don’t want pass my calories
How to stop snacking! Or how to make your meals more well balanced. That’s what I always struggle with while in a cut.
Jenna Henson yes! Snacking is my downfall.
What helped me with this was planning my whole day of food on my fitness pal a day in advance, add snacks into your daily calorie goals. If you have an extra snack that’s not already tracked, just track it, that will either motivate you to stick to the plan better or you can always eliminate a snack you had planned later in the day🙂

Good luck!!!! Hope you started because it’s November!!!!

When you’re done with your cut, can you go through how to slowly add calories back in?! :)
arkrokos yes!!
It would be super helpful if you did a video where you showed how you count your calories. I get really frustrated especially when it comes to cooking because I don’t know if I have to count every single ingredient in/ how to know the portions. Thank so much!
You actually look super great before the cut!!!
In terms of nerves and anxiety, do you ever have mental breakdowns at the gym? Asking for a friend... Do you power through it and continue your workout or do you draw a line and tell yourself it's time to go home?
Good question! Usually I feel worse if I 'give up' on myself an leave. So I'll try to push through after a bathroom break, if it gets worse then I'll go home and maybe go for a run in a less crowded/anxiety provoking environment!
misselizabethcady I have stopped running on the treadmill just to cry.. and then I either get back to it or i just walk
I have had breakdowns when I'm having an off day. Sometimes I just cant do as well as i usually do and i break down. I go to the locker rooms to try and calm down. Have cried quite a few times. Most times i can try to push through it and cry the entire way home.... if i get too bad, i leave, take a day off and come back to redo that days workout so I know I completed it the best I can. It makes me feel better.
misselizabethcady I sometimes get anxious at the gym when working out and I will generally just take things a little slower but sometimes I just have to stretch it out and leave to help my anxiety! Really good question by the way! 😊
Love the slower approach to cutting that seem more realistic. For some reason listening to this video helped relieve some of my anxiety surrounding losing body fat. Thanks hun!
Always coming back to this video
OH MY GOD. My height is the same as yours!!! And I’ve been struggling with my weight since I was 14 because I used to model… I always thought I needed to weight less to look like you, but OMG this is LIFE CHANGING
Liking before watching cause it’s you 😊❤️
Nauana Louzada love my squad 😢💕
Thank you for mentioning the scale the way you did!
This came at the perfect time! I just started your program Saturday, waiting on the supplements. You answered my questions! So thank you! I “run” like this too. Your awesome! Your posts have helped me so much!
Can you do a video on how to properly use weight training equipment at the gym? I have access to a gym and I would love to learn how to start the weight training process
I struggle with motivation one minute I’m at the gym doing really good and the next I just don’t want to anymore and it’s hard to get that motivation back :(
Nobody is motivated all the time, but that's the difference between winners and losers. Winners fall but they never quit. While others do it,you can do it too. Even better😜☺❤
I just wanna say I absolutely adore you omg, i found you a while ago and i totally forgot about the channel and recently found you again and you’ve been helping me so much in so many areas of my life. You’re super real, and give actual help and show how you do everything without trying to get something out of it!
Might sound weird but rundning longer distances really helps with getting good at running. I used to hate running but when running 6-8 km+, I started loving it.
I've just started my calorie deficit again after so much going on this year. Possible question which is a bit personal that you could help and give advice with. How to manage when it's time of the month? (Sorry men on here) I struggle so much with wanting the wrong foods, bloating etc. How do you overcome if you maybe get similar issues. I love all that you do and can't wait for UK shipping launch for Bloom!!!
Yes! Would love advice on this!
Some dietitians do videos on such subjects , in general try to eat leafy green such as brocolis or spinach, increase your magnesium and omega 3 intake, avoid refined carbs will help your pms, bloating, and cravings for junk food.
I'd love to learn how to say no to bigger portions and unhealthy snacks! Mentally I find it very hard to discipline myself and food places don't make it any easier when they give you deals on doubling your food 😭
Yes girl! We want to cut with you! I already started almost done with fitness guide number one! Down 12 pounds so far!!!! Yay!!!
You are amazing!! I love the way you run your company and how much better I feel after watching and reading everything you put out there. Don’t ever stop being you
kiah marshall thank you for this 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Mari Fitness thank you for all you do! ❤️❤️❤️

Same here except I’m 5’7,” gotta lean out, for sure!
heyy, i just found your channel! i am a runner (half marathons and planning on doing marathons) and i will definitely try Bloom Supps! you are so inspiring
Girl...you look amazing without any makeup! I would love to see a how to on calorie counting. Do you measure and weigh all of your food?
Can’t believe I’m early! Perfect timing for this video!
YAY!
Hi Mari! I would love to see a video on how you use the bloom products in particular to the protein. I just put my first order in for a couple bloom products and would like to know which is the best way to use the protein. Your videos are always so helpful. Thank you for your continuous motivation!
I am horrendous at secret eating, I always have been but during lockdown I can't stop!
The gods heard my call I was literally searching for this exact information thank you 🙏🏼🥰
I was 220 and now 188 . I still need 20 more pounds out my body is not budging 😭 thanks for the tips ! I’m buying a scale now
Irenes Journey hey! I bought a scale on amazon that actually tracks your body composition. It tell you how much fat, water and muscle your body has. It was not that expensive compared to other nice ones. It is a Renpho scale. The reviews were great and I have had it for about a year and it is extremely accurate. They have an app that bluetooth connects to the scale and so you open the app, step on the scale and then then all the info will show up on your phone and tell you if your levels are low, normal, or high and it also keeps track of everything, each time you weigh yourself. The app has trend graphs. Its honestly really cool
@@bridgettericco7203 whats it called?
Thank you @ bridgette ricco and it’s called the Renpho scale ? So I can search it on amazon
Liana Rodriguez renpho bluetooth smart scale. It is 24.99 on amazon, and it shows there is a 4$ coupon right now. So 20.99 for a great scale!
@ bridgette ricco thanks girl ! Ordering now ! 2020 is coming and I refuse to be a butterball lol check it out my 1st UA-cam video
Hi Mari, I am a 16 year old girl and I am very insecure about my body and especially my legs. every day when i look in the mirror i feel so ugly. I try to eat less and also exercise, only when I look at myself in the mirror again I still feel fat. I'm really getting desperate and sometimes have days when I don't want to look in the mirror at all. Do you have a few tips on how to burn fat from my thighs? i would really appreciate it. all tips are welcome, it would really do me good and I hope you see this because I can't look at myself anymore. I would appreciate it so much
I know you already have so many videos of full day of eating but I just love watching them so much and I would love to see another one of those from you! And possibly another video of cooking with chef Greg because not only is it entertaining 😂 but super helpful and sparks inspiration for me in the kitchen! You guys are awesome btw love you Mari! 💕
Would love to see how you balance your diet and exercise during the holidays. This is the hardest time for me to be cutting!
I was wating so excitedly for this vid!! Thanks! Always so amazing!
I love this video! I was just going on a run and thank you so much for the tip because I always go too hard and dread going to the gym. You are such an inspiration to me and I admire your fitness and being able to do all this for yourself. You're so amazing!
I haven‘t even seen the whole video yet but since it‘s Mari I 100% know it‘s only gonna be facccccts!🙏
omg lol love you
Mari Fitness i love YOU! Thank you for everything you do, literally!! I‘ve been doing your Gym Guides and they‘re amazing! You and Greg are both so beautiful inside and out!❤️
How do I stop craving fast food? How do I stop binge eating as well?
Make sure you eat enough "healty" calories. If you eat enough of that in a day you would be full and maybe not crave those fast foods anymore. What helps me, every time i crave fast food or wanna go binge eating make sure you got veggies in house like cuccumber or carrot. When you feel a craving comming up you can eat those veggies and not gain a lot of calories
Don’t lower your calories to drastically and don’t be too strict . I struggled w / binge eating and what helped me is doing a kinda 80/20 . I eat chocolate , donuts everyday or try and fit sth in I crave instead of going for the low calorie protein options . That way I still achieve my goals but I do not feel deprived of anything .
Also I still crave fast food but I tell myself that I am grateful that I get to choose healthy options and embark on this journey and , that way I get excited to go for a healthy option over processed foods because of the way it makes me feel :))
read the book “brain over binge”
i am a big fan of weighting myself everyday. i did this for 10 years. i think it depends on why you do this. i was never in a diet. i just wanted to have a comparison without any pressure while training hard and gaining muscles. anyway, throughout this i know how much your weight can be influenced through the cycle you are in (as a woman), how much water/ salt/ carbohydrates / sleep you had yesterday. because i know my body so well, i can not recommend to wheigt yourself once a week or every two weeks. it says nothing.
You are such an inspiration and extremely motivating! The camera loves you and you're a natural at vlogging. I am so excited to get started with your plans and will be purchasing soon. Keep up the amazing work! Greg too! Yall are top notch! I especially love the full day of food videos because i struggle with what to eat. Love that u eat white rice too! 🤩👍👍👍
I don’t know whether just eating what I want is good? I eat very healthily meal wise but snack on sugary things often. I have tried snacking healthily, fruit with almond butter, little bits of dark chocolate, nuts & seeds, etc. But no matter what the snack how nice it is or how much of it I eat, I always still want that one unhealthy snack. Is it better to just eat the unhealthy snack to begin with , say, a chocolate bar? Rather than overeat all the healthy snacks and end up eating too many calories & still craving the unhealthy stuff?
Mari, thank you for your videos, I love them. Lots of love from Costa Rica
oooo love Costa Rica!!! Thank you love
I started my weight lose in March of 2020 at 176 pounds and it's now January 2021 and my weight is now 154 pounds I have now learned eat healthy drink more water exercise it's a walk around the house and outside I only get on the scale once a week because I find if I get on scale everyday that will make me frustrated this video helped me a lot to understand weight loss and I want to say thank you ❤❤💜💜💖💖💗💗 p.s I eat 3 small meals a day I add vegetables fruit some Meats and some nuts and I also eat salads the old me would not eat a salad the new me love salads now 🥗🥗🥗😋😋😋❤💜💖💗
I love you so much Mari! You’ll never know how much you’ve helped me. I’m forever grateful💕💕
Mari! How long should we wait until we decrease our calorie intake again? A week? Two weeks? And what is a healthy amount of calories to eliminate?
Like for example, if you eat 2000 cal. a day, and you decrease by 100 so that you're eating 1900 cal., how long do we do that before we decrease again, and how much is too much cutting?
I am so excited when you upload a new video cuz your my motivation to keep pushing forward. Love you loads and keep winning babe.😘😘😘
Yaass girl love it! I totally agree with you in a cut as well posting a bunch on my channel this month on diet! So excited for what I eat in a day videos!
Can you make a video about how to overcome emotional eating or at least how you did?
Your accent changes so much throughout your videos, and I love it lol. Definitely influenced by your bf
Thanks for the video Mari! This helped me get motivated again 😊
Question! Do you still allow yourself to have cheat meals even if you hit a plateau?
Would also love to know more about how many bulk / cut phases you’ve gone through and how long they were / how much your body changed in each phase.
Thanks for all your advices . i made the mistake and cut down too much (under 1500kcal) and never made it longer than 2 weeks, Hope with cutting just 200kcal i make it longer! (Greetz from Germany)
Question! So you mentioned when starting out, we should eat as many calories as possible and slowly decrease to encourage better results. I’m not sure how many calories I started out at, probably like 2,000 per day. But I’ve cut it down to 1,200 most days. So of course I am losing weight but now I’m wondering how to go about correcting this! Starting to go to the gym, mostly cardio and some weights. How should I adjust my calories now? Slowly increase? I’d love to hear your thoughts! Thanks 💗
Love love love your videos Mari! 😍
i love you and all the info and products you give, but i jus wanna say your eyes are so bright and beautiful!
Love you, Mari!!! You really inspire me. I’m really wanting to try Bloom, too 😊😊
I struggle with knowing how much of something to eat. Any tips for beginners would be amazing
Kristen Jeffries Drink ACV Daily diluted. Try OMAD. Drink 1 glass of water before you eat. You’d most likely be a bit fuller. When you think you’re hungry drink water. Most times your thirsty not hungry. Stop eating after 8pm. Be consistent ! Make it a lifestyle not a diet.
Cralisa Victoria why stop eating after 8 pm . I don’t mean to be disrespectful but that is total bs ! Your body has no “ clock “ so it really doesn’t matter when you eat , as long as you eat in a deficit / maintenance.
You can try to eat intuitively and eat when you are hungry and stop whenever you are full . Drinking a glass of water is actually a good idea because you normally are thirsty and not hungry .
If you want to start tracking your food , I’d suggest downloading a calorie counting app and tracking what you eat for a day . If you maintained your weight for the last months you know that this amount is what you need to maintained your weight . If are gaining weight you can start lowering calories up to about 20% .
You can also go onto macrocalculator.com and have your calories calculated manually .
You can then distribute those calories over the course of the day / how ever many meals you want to eat .
If you have any other questions feel free to ask . I hope that helped :)
Maybe tips for eating meals in the dining hall at college. When I'm home I feel I snack less and eat better but at my school, it can be hard to eat healthy without literally eating a salad and chicken every night or rice and chicken.
Always ready for your videos! Had a dream we met up in person😂🧡
awww hahahah love you chica!
Girl you don't have any fat or weight to lose. you look absolutely amazing
11:56 looks like the dog got himself out of the car and closed the door lol😂
Oh my gosh I see your transformation pics on insta always! I never knew u had a yt ♡
Perfect timing! I wanted to start cutting. I’m on week 7 on guide 1. I’m definitely getting a lot stronger but not losing much fat. I used to do a good bit of cardio (Peloton 2-3x a week and running). Wondering if I need to add in cardio again.. should I do HIIT or steady state cardio? I’d love to get meal ideas! Any thoughts on intermittent fasting?
I really follow you from long. Love you girl. I have seen your whole journey. Can't wait to be more motivated with you.😍😍😍❤🥰🥰🥰bw you're like a barbie doll.
When you first started working out to lose fat did you incorporate more cardio or just weights, or both?
Monica Guadalupe Garcia I watched an old video of hers that said she started off doing weight training for a few months bc she did not workout previously and that was enough. Eventually she plateaued and incorporated cardio for 15mins 3-5 days a week along with weight training. Hope this helps!
I literally ate 3,000 calories yesterday, I'm 6' female, 145 pounds idk whats wrong with me. I've got a stomach condition called SIBO that makes me not absorb nutrients that well but wow I didn't realise I was eating that much..
How to know ur serving sizes and control ur portions would be sooo helpful
Where's your accent from? Sounds somewhat Australian
Victoria Trenton it sounds slightly English to me (as an Australian)
I remember she said in video she was borned in England and moved early to US, that's why her accent is mixed
Keep up the good work ma'am 👏
omg your teaching me so much it’s not even funny, i cut my calories DRASTICALLY for my weight and height from about 2000 calories to 1200 what was i thinking honestly
YOUR EARRINGS!! Where can I get them??
I love your channel! You are so motivating! New sub! ❤️
I would love to see meals!! I need new ideas!
Love a good starting point video!!
I really want to take supplements from bloom but I live in Belgium and it doesn't get shipped there yet and the creditcards from Belgium also don't work on most American sites 😭
I want to know what you did in the start of a diet how much hour did you track how much did you do hiking and what was your team to team and what did you eat in the starting
I just love you sooo so much. Thanks for your tips!!
if you know how to, please make videos on vegetarian high fat/protein meals!!!
Hi! I'm a college student and I eat my meals at my school cafeteria because it is much cheaper. I started avoiding bakery in the morning and I put more veggies on my plate at lunch and dinner with some kind of meat
(we usually have fried chicken breast) and a small salad on the side(they only have small ones available). And sometimes I take a chocolate muffin or a chocolate bar to eat at home later(I have a sweet tooth 😂). It's really frustrating not knowing if I'm in a deficit or not, and if I am,by how much exactly because I can't measure my own food. I wanted to ask do you have any tips for a college student like me to make sure they are in a deficit while eating in a cafeteria, and how to maximize my protein intake without protein shakes. I want to lose fat and keep and gain muscle, so I am getting into the routine of going to the gym. Not sure will you see this comment, it's definitely a bit of a long one, but just want to add that I'm really thankful for everything that you do ❤️
Just jumping in to share my opinion :)
Add more meat, chicken, fish and protein-dense plant products such as tofu and beans to your meal (preferrably not fried).
Also, instead of having muffin every night, try to switch to dark chocolate bar maybe?
It's still as yummy imo, minus all the extra carbs from flour & sugar & butter in muffins.
Once you get used to cutting muffins/cakes/sweets, try to switch it up with banana or blueberries (which imo are equally sweet and satisfying).
Sugar addiction is real (you can read all about it) so try to slowly cut down on added sugar.
Also, no soda/packaged juice/sweetened drinks :)
I guarantee after 2 weeks you'll notice pretty obvious difference!
Eating clean on budget/limited food option is challenging but definitely possible. Good luck :)
Hey love, I couldn’t help but notice... don’t you think 1900 calories for maintenance is pretty low considering you’re 5’11? The average female (5’5ish) maintenance is 1900-2000 cals. I’m 5’5, an avid runner and I maintain on 2400 ish cals. You’re really tall, so I was just shocked. Maybe work on increasing your cals and subsequently metabolism so you can eat more and maintain if you’re interested in that? Love your channel! Xx
How do you know when to stop cutting and start bulking? Some people say it's when you have abs. Is this true?
I have trouble finding side dishes for my meals. I always do meat and some greens but the sides is where I struggle because I don’t want pass my calories
What do you do after you have hit a plateau?
