congrats on the 4 yrs., i am at 2 yrs, many health benefits, including 84 lbs gone. which also was a side affect. As u can see by my name, i was going for healthy too I started at 238, 5'1" tall, been heavy since puberty., 66 yrs young, low thyroid, almost bed ridden by chronic fatigue, fibro, stomach & bowel issues, etc. I healed them all and got off 5 of 6 meds. No more cane, and a whole list of aliments,m just gone. I just love it, the simpliest meals, like Chef AJ, potatoes and broccoli, or similar. I haven;t slipped yet. Since giving up salt, oil, flour, alcohol, sugar and caffeine, i don't even crave anything but whole veg and fruit. Same here, my life is so different, i was struggling to get to the bathroom and something to eat.I now can do 7000 ,50 min's, no resting, all at once .. I feel so much better and younger too. . I had to stop with the nuts, to start losing again , after a yr... i got my hubby eating my soups , he asks for it now, in his thermos for work. He has lost 40 lbs and has more energy. I use it in place of sauces & dressings. I listen to all those plant based dr's too, . All of the above as to the whys !! My dr will only take my blood once a yr, 13 months..But he is amazed that i got off all those meds, and the weight loss, he calls me his star patient and tells hubby to listen to me & eat what i eat !! I do have pics tho, i am amazed at how big i actually was !! My support is listening to Chef AJ, Tami and Tom Kramer , .you, plant based Melissa, well your world, & more.💜👍💗💗💗
Great job! Happy for you!
Glad you gained your health back. You are an inspiration for others.
Patty2MAD regaining health and mobility How do you do it? I have sincerely tried WFPB at least three times and just couldn’t stick to it. The food was so bland and it felt like a prison sentence. I just hate food without salt, too! 😩
So great to read. I also follow simnett nutrition, avantgarde, cooking with plants, chef jana and plant based news. Since covid19 I got tipped off and joined MISFITS MARKET that delivers organic produce weekly for a fair price, excellent exciting new plants to ease the constant worrying. Check it out if you too are in need of vegs and fruit.
@@lisalmenard3828 well, after going without salt, oil, sugar, etc few weeks, i didn't crave them any more. I craved brussels sprouts, & other veg & fruit.Plus, i don't mind left over, so batch cooking is great for me/us, hubby too. I now taste the veg & fruit taste, esp after giving up oil, which coats our taste bugs , so we need even more salt & sugar, etc.. I just use spices now, celery seeds kinda gives a salty taste. I look forward to my next meal of pot based veg soup, just like the 1st. I did a whole pot of carrots, pot's & turnip last night, mashed it,added green peas, & oh so yummy, . Having same for lunch & supper. But for supper i am air frying slabs of it , see how that turns out, i watched Chef AJ do it ❤️❤️❤️❤️🧡🧡🧡💛💛💛💚💚💚💙💙💙💜💜💜plus i was so unhealthy & sick, i would try anything
, & it worked for me
Congratulations on 4 years!!
I have been vegan for almost 5 years, but certainly not WFPB the whole time. I had a lot of health benefits from just going vegan, but still needed to lose weight so I went on the starch solution in 2016 and had great success...until I lost my “why” and regained 1/2 of what the starch solution took off.
This January I decided to get back on the WFPB wagon and for accountability I started uploading videos too. Just found your channel & am going to subscribe! I’m the only person I know that is doing a WFPB diet. It can be lonely. I am happy for connections with like-minded eaters. 😂
Plant based is the way to go. I’ve been at it for 7 years.
You inspire me so much.I am vegan now for six yrs,but was having some health issues.was getting chest pains and my cholesterol was so high.I started a SOS wfpb diet in January.I lost a lot of weight. From 150 to 135.I dont like being this skinny though,but I'm doing this for my health.Im so glad I found u on UA-cam.
Yes the snoring and chest pain was real frightening 🤦🏽♀️ Not happening now.
This video came out at just the right time for ME. I started going down the wrong path with this COVID. Some friends of mine love to bake, and they'd drop off all kinds of baked goods (sweets, pies, etc.). And I began indulging; replacing my healthy breakfast with sweet rolls and coffee, baked goods and coffee, a piece of pie and coffee. And it tasted great during eating it, but within 10 minutes, I could feel my body get sluggish and my stomach feet horrible. So, now I have to hit the re-set button and get back on track. This is the hardest part - getting re-started. But as I sat down to watch UA-cam with my sweet bread and coffee - and started feeling that ill-health start to fill my body - your video popped up. Thank you! I know I have to gather all my mental strength and get back on board. OMG - I remembered my 'why.. THANKS.
Remembering you're not hurting just yourself helps greatly to stay on track. When the "why" includes the wellbeing of our planet and only home, of wildlife, of enslaved animals, of countless other humans, of our economy, of our future...it becomes impossible to forget and dismiss it. Good luck :)
Just remember to give your self some love as you transition back. ❤️
The feeling of needing a fresh start, so familiar. I am intrigued by SpudFit and Potato Wisdom, both on UTUBE.
A new simple way to strike out new
You are precious! So happy you discovered this way to a healthy life♥️
Thank you very much. I'm new to plant base. I love your recipes, they are simple. Love your voice and for me thats important. I will be 74 yrs soon and my doctor wants to add a third bp medication. That's my why. At 170, need to lose weight and knee problems. Thank you again.
Keep up the good work Brittany ❤️
Never heard of the food pyramid interesting. I am not eating to lose weight but more for health benefits. Endometriosis, Fibroids, High BP & Lupus . Heading in the plant based direction slowly phasing out meat. Only 3 months in and my menstrual flow is the lightest it’s ever been in 11 yrs. skin is improving and mood is better. I am also dropping weight rapidly. Loving it this time round l am approaching 50, so no time to waste. Thanku for sharing. 🎓🤗❤️
Oh my I tried your chocolate pudding the other day and it was amazing. I can’t wait to try your cheese sauce that Krocks in The Kitchen was talking about. Your recipes are fun and are getting me back in track and I am much older.
I LOVE the changes to your health markers! What a relief that must have been! Thank you for the encouragement. 💙
Inspiring encouragement! Thank you!
I have watched some of your videos as I go through the beginning of eating WFPB. Thank you for sharing your story. I remember reading your FOK success story but didn't connect you and the story until now. I am motivated by my health: borderline high blood pressure and cholesterol that was too high. I went from being a picky eater as a child to now putting in non starchy veggies in wherever I see an opportunity. I'm only eight weeks in. But I'm excited to try new veggies, including beats and shredded zucchini. I riced my first cauliflower too!
Thank you for sharing your story. Just found your channel and hit rock bottom with depression and fatigue. Struggling with a sugar addiction. Tomorrow I start fresh. One meal and snack at a time!
I love your story! It’s all about our health.
Congratulations...so proud of you!
This was a very helpful video, especially about finding support and the resources you have. Thank you!
I’ve been plant based since January and love it! You are so inspiring.
So happy I found your channel. Thanks for all your help and information! ❤
What a sweetheart you are. Congrats on your weight loss and positive changes to your health. Sadly I am still struggling with obesity and trying to stay on a plant based diet but I will never give up. People like yourself help us to know there is hope and you inspire us all to be better and do better. I wish you continued success and look forward to more of your great videos. I truly believe one day I will get to where you are. Thank you and God bless!!
What a wonderful video! Very inspirational! And one more TIP! Take your B12! 😁
What a Blessing!!! You have a great testimony!!! I really like a lot of your recipes, especially the soups!!! Keep up the good work Bret!!!
Congrats! I’m in so far for only 7 weeks! Great job and keep up the fantastic work!
You had me with sauces and condiments!
Looks like you have lots of recipes which is greatly appreciated !
Congratulations on your successful lifestyle change! U r such an inspiration to me!! I L💖VE all your recipes and thoroughly enjoy ALL your videos. Please keep helping those of us just starting on this journey who look at u with awe and admiration as we r striving to attain your knowledge of this awesome new lifestyle!! L💖VE u!!
I agree with keeping inspired. That's how I found your channel. Thank you!
My goodness, your story is so good to see. I think you are adorable and I like your recipes because they are healthy and simple.
I believe my cooking is good because it is flavorable - love spices and all sorts of different ingredients to cook
Happy anniversary! So glad you found this whole food plant lifestyle :D
Thank you so much for your help with the plant base life style. You are such an inspiration for so many of us newbies! THANKS SO MUCH!
Congratulations on your health!! I'm am amazed you weren't a cook before.
wow fours years wfpb, congratulations 🎊
you are an inspiration for me to continue this path when I think I cannot continue
Great advice. I've stumbled across some of the same. I particularly appreciate the hint to have various tasty sauces in your arsenal. I keep trying to buy something which invariably has something naughty in it. You motivate me to attempt sauces.
Thank you so much for sharing your story!!!
Congratulations! I stared last year but went off it for about a month and a half. I got back into plant base February first and trying to get my husband on board. That has been an up hill battle but I'm not giving up. Thank you for being an inspiration. Love your videos.
Congratulations on 4 years! I'm coming up on two years this month. I dropped 30 pounds in the first year and learned and am still learning so much. I must admit that I have been stuck for the last 6 months. This pod sounds like just what I need, so thank you! XO
Congratulations! Excellent 5 tips, quite motivating and achievable for long-term maintenance of your WFPB life. Showing others how to do this is definitely giving others the opportunity to save their health. Nice one!
Congratulations! Thank you so much for the tips!
Very helpful! Thanks for this! It's also hard to believe you didn't cook before...but look at you now!
Thank you so much, Brit! 💕
You are a huge inspiration to me!! WFPB is a wonderful life changing way of eating 🌱❤️ love your recipes!! Thanks for what you do!
Your video is so inspiring love ya I need my healing in my body and emotions
i found a big difference in my mind and emotions, i got off depression meds, i think clearer, and no racing mind and heart, especially in the mid of the night , when i can't sleep. p.s- i just left more detailed msg above 💗💗💗
Congratulations 🎈🎉🎊
Scamp Chats!! Awesome. I saw you in the FOK Magazine 💜♥️💛❤️💗💙💚💕💖💞 So inspiring 😊
Such a great list and a huge congratulations! I want to add: try things you once tried and didn't love. Tastebuds change so much the longer we eat this way that I do think it's worth just checking again. Love to you all on this journey!
Thanks for sharing thus info. They will help me tremendously & my grandson who is starting plant based eating because of health issues. God bless you from grandma Katie in Oregon
I'm so happy for you, congratulations! My own plant based journey has been like a roller coaster, I'm definitely going to use your 5 tips and try harder. Thank you so much for that video! It really is encouraging.
Thank you for doing the work! Research and reading and recommending. I like so many things about your channel. It is not about weight loss. And you encourage your family. Thank you for encouraging me.
I started WFPB in earnest back in September and lost about 11 pounds. Since then I've been gaining and losing the same 3-5 pounds. I just keep getting derailed for a variety of reasons. I did a CRP test and mine was 11! I really want to get this down, and I'm trying to focus again. Thank you for posting this :)
Good for you to not give up. Best tip: focus on real food. The food groups Brittany gave fruit, vegies, legumes, whole grains. Many people find it easier to not cheat at all, even a little, as this derails their whole plan.
@@elizabethkirkeide2458 I have the most problem with legumes and whole grains given some food sensitivities I find it easy to overeat both of them as well for some reason. But it is a process! Have to remember that. That I can't just change all that bad stuff in one day.
Great video. Inspiring. Thank you.
Excellent video well thought out well-made. Thank you.
What an inspiring transformation... and by now you're over 5 years in! Congratulations!
Such a great book!! 📖
Thank you for inspiring me.
Thank you so much I’m very inspired for what you said excellent
So good about having patience. We have been abusing our bodies for so long that it will take time to recover. A good year is a realistic time frame to just enjoy the process and don't worry about the results, they will come. Of course, I'm preaching to myself because after 2 weeks WFPB no oil, no sugar, I'm like, why am I still in the same size pants?!?!? Lol. But people are already noticing the weight is coming off, most likely noticing the inflammation around my face and tummy going down. I'm going to hang onto the words of wisdom I just wrote and trust the process for a whole year. Lol. God bless!
Really good talk!
Thanks for the tips. My biggest takeaway was the sauces. I think I needed to hear that right now. Of course I've heard it before but until I became more homebound with the Coronavirus pandemic, my husband and I just ate things that were more simple but boring. I definitely want to spice things up and have go-to sauces that are easy and simple. And that we can store for a few days. Interesting, I have lost 10 lbs in the last 3 weeks (I'd like to lose 15 more) because even though I am a stress eater, I'm consciously trying to only eat when I'm hungry and stop when I'm full. Consciously is the operative word here. I want to make our food last longer so we don't have to go to the store very often and potentially be exposed to the Coronavirus. It has really hit home that I haven't lost any weight since going Plant Based close to 2 years ago because I often overeat. Like, every day. I'm 65 and fairly sedentary. I may change the sedentary lifestyle now too. Weather will be warming up and snow is nearly all melted.
This is super helpful!
Thanks!
Really motivations
Thank you a lot ❤️
Congrats and thanks, support is so helpful
I really enjoyed your video. Wonderful testimony! I love your simple delicious recipes! I just started wfpb eating when I ran across the Redline Challenge on fb last week! I never thought cheese, eggs, salmon, chicken breast and other foods that I thought were healthy weren't! My goal is to eat healthy and lose weight. I'm learning how to make my own meals from your cooking videos! Thank you so much for sharing! God bless you and your family!❤
Great tips. Thank you for sharing them. The advice is very helpful.
thanks for sharing. You are an inspiration.
I admire your total dedication to your WFPB lifestyle and your encouragement to others. I have been WFPB for over a year after following a vegan diet. Began by being vegetarian for 10 years because of ny love for all animals. I was never really overweight but wanted a healthy and nutritious diet. At 5' 1" I weigh 43 kgs. I do find myself quite isolated with my eating choices and my family won't be encouraged to adapt to WFPB. Congratulations Brittany.
Thank you!!!!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Great tips - a variety of sauces and a variety of sources 😂 Thank you!
Yes please on the bloodwork. In my experience as a Canadian I get bloodwork done typically at a check up. The doctor runs whatever the standard tests are which would include cholesterol, iron and sugar. In general the doctor’s office would connect back with you if they felt there was a concern. Would love to know how to go about requesting tests that I didn’t even know existed and their function/purpose to set personal goals. Great video. Thanks for the inspiration and congrats.
Thank you for all of your resources! New sub!
This was so helpful I have only been going plant bast for only a few months and I. find all your videos so helpful as they have helped me stay on track I have not lost weight but my health is going on the right track and I would. Like to tell you look a lot like my grand daughter so thanks a lot 👍👍👍👍👍
Great suggestions. Thanks
Thank you so much for these tips and for inspiring me. I’ve lost 18 pounds now but I have a long way to go. Your tips have really helped.
Thank you! 💕
This is what I’ve been doing for so many urs and once in a while I get off the wagon for stupid reasons and peer pressure and social pressures etc but mostly I do everything u r doing and I add antioxidants and vit bs etc I try but it is a very very slow process but I keep thinking long term always xoxoxo
Thank you for sharing. Very helpful tips. You are so inspiring. Would love to know what sauces, dressings and condiments you use and how you use them.
WFPB for me coming from a vegan diet is easy, I love animals I don’t/won’t eat them #simple x
CarrotShaker Calm down! each time their own. As an ethical vegan who doesn’t like processed junk food my why way a piece of cake... minus the eggs and dairy of course.. (scuzzz the pun) it was intended. #Peace
CarrotShaker Maybe I could have worded my initial post in a clearer way. I was offering my “Why” which was Brittanys third reason. I’m sorry if you don’t think my reason is valid but to me it’s important. I eat WFPB to heal my body and I will continue to do so because I love it, it’s a bonus that no animals have to suffer and die.
That's good for you, but, a vegan diet is only about not using animals. I actually ate close to a wfpb diet when I still included some animal products than I do now as a vegan for the past decade. Yes, you can be a wfpb vegan, a well as just wfpb, but I don't find giving up processed foods, oils, sugars, refined flours any easier just because of ethics!
Awesome video!
Thank You great tips I'm a newbie.....45 days plant based....no animal products at all....I found you through Krocks in the kitchen... I follow all those Dr.s too.... stay safe
So motivating! Thanks for sharing. I just started 2 weeks ago seriously. Am down 6-7 lbs and have 10 to go so am impressed. Started after reading the starch solution. Hoping for a long healthy life! Still struggling a bit with veggies. I love lentils and am eating a lot of that and veggies and brown rice. My sister, a very thin, but unhealthy, lifetime smoker, had a stroke and it’s a wake up call.
Hi 👋 I’m not plant based yet, but you came on my feed and like yourself I have done a lot of research, I am already dairy and nut free due to allergies, I try very hard to not eat processed foods. My weight is what you were 180, I don’t have any health issues, thank god, but I know if I don’t change I will get them quick! Stay safe, and healthy from your new subscriber, can’t wait to binge on your videos!!! Your a great inspiration ❤️
You inspire me!
Well done. Thanks for sharing. I am vegeterian and honestly trying more plant based to kick the cheese and eggs. Appreciate the words. Iam graduating as a health coach and i want to be a healthy example
Thanks. I’ve made a sign so I can see these 5 tips congratulation on your success 🎉✅🎊💗
Great post. Congratulations on 4 years and your incredible success. Creating delicious dishes is essential to staying the course, using sauces, dressings etc but your tip, what is your 'why' really resonated with me. My CRP marker was unbelievably high and after six months it is now 7. Still working to get to under 3 but I am on track. And blood tests results are indeed proof.
It took a few years for CRP to come down very low for me, hang in there- it’s working ❤️❤️
@@TheJaroudiFamily Thank you for that feedback. That's really good to know and made me feel more optimistic. I think I assumed it would happen nearly overnight. 😔 And at 65, I am significantly older than you so I need to learn patience after decades of abuse. Love and appreciate what you do. THANK YOU.
Colleen Dawes it’s frustrating, but you’re going to do great!
I SO needed thus video today! I'm trying to move forward. I know what and how, just somehow need a push.
Find those support groups.
ME too. I have been soooo off the wagon, and this was a Godsend. Thank you so much B!!!! I adore you.
Thank you so much for sharing. I am just now starting WFPB after being an unhealthy Vegan for years. I have wrecked my body for long enough. I watch lectures, read books etc, for encouragement. I want to get healthy, feel good every day and get in shape ❤️ Congrats, on your four years
I have avoided Facebook so far, but I just set up an account so I can join! (Not my real name 🙄)
Another great video
Thank you!
You offered to do a video on your bloods and it sounds like a lot of people would appreciate it. I don't think I would have had any bad results in my bloods if I had taken a baseline but that wasn't my "why". My aim at the moment is transitioning from vegan (3 months in) towards wholefood plant based (wfpb). Best wishes to everyone reading on their journeys. x
I hope you’re proud of yourself, I just joined a pod! I’m a pod person! Lol
Looks like they have not been very active even before the lockdown but we will see. Thanks!
Brittany, is there a video, blogpost, or anything about Echelon bikes? I noticed them linked in your description box with a discount (thanks!) but would love to hear your input on them.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video. You have been such an answer to prayer for me. I needed to hear each tip. Though l have lost over 60+ pounds l seem to be stuck where l am. I see what l need to do. And, l am the only one in my family who's WFPB. It's so hard for me. I see it's really because l haven't found my "WHY." I really don't know how to thank you. I subscribed. 😘
Good points on the keeping up with the research to stay motivated. I've only been at it a month, but I recall not really wanting to eat veg because I was looking at "macros" so when veg hardly has any I couldn't be bothered to eat it. Now I know the amazing benefits, I want to stuff it down my face! I find knowing the benefits helps me eat it.
Bloods is something I've been really into - my watch tells me I'm in the 98th percentile of males for my age group (36) for activity, I also lift weights and am 61kg. Despite that, my LDL was 4.3 at 29! So I don't have the barometer of weight-loss but the bloods keep me motivated.
Also I'm not very social - but I find I get support from videos like yours that are "real". No fancy cuts, camera setup, location etc. Just feels like you're having a chat with someone. Thanks for uploading your content :-)
💕💕💕
Very good advise
Congrats to you. So kind of you to share and help others. Are all your recipes in one place somewhere?
I love how you never cheat. Instead, you try to make healthful substitutes for your favorite treats.
There is an add for "The Natural Chicken Council" airing on the end of this video just now.
It shows how clean their processing plant is.
I saw a show a while ago about how the meeting industry is a sunset industry.
I can't imagine how desperate they must feel if they're airing their ads on plant-based diet UA-cam videos ???
What a bummer! I unfortunately don’t have control over what they pick 😭
