"It's boring on purpose" is how I'll be describing my life from now on
Hi Lana 🌸 good to see you here! xx
ua-cam.com/video/3lUp2C0pS_Y/v-deo.html finally it's here..
100% using this now. like "yea you think you're offending me when you call me boring. this is on purpose" haha
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lanaaaa
I would never "automate" my way of eating. Missing out on so many interesting new flavors, is not something I would consider a life goal. But it was interesting to see your point of view
READ MY NAME!!!!

It is called Bodybulding diet
Food isn’t supposed to be associated with any level of pleasure, while that’s obviously very integrated with our society it still remains one of the most bizarre things about the human relationship with indulgence. I went to culinary school, and I also love to cook great food a few times a month. But to ensure I hit my calorie goal as well as eat a sufficient amount of macro nutrients everyday, it’s very easy to automate my diet. Worrying less about what I’ll eat, how long it’ll take to cook, grocery shopping, preservation, and all that stuff is going to take way to much time out of my busy life just to be pleasured for a 10 minutes while I devour the energy source.
I hear you, Julian. I feel the same way!
It's not really one extreme or the other (although Matt seems to lean into that). You don't have to miss out on trying new things (realistically, how many times a week are you trying some new cuisine you've never had before). The goal of this lifestyle is moderation. That said, most people that do boring meal prep like Matt, do it because they're either bad at cooking or just don't care to spend their time cooking. I meal prep weekly and I love cooking- each week's meal is different from the last and my wife and I still go out to try new things a couple times a month.
I respectfully disagree with the video. From my understanding, it is healthier to have a variety of foods in your diet. Even better to eat the seasonal foods available locally. No minimalism in (variety of) food for me:)
i dont know... i think Matt is onto something here... ima try it.
Totally agree, even if it’s an interesting point of view that he is showcasing, it has been shown how much our gut health, and thus our overall well being, relies on the biggest variety of food! Especially plants. I’m not sure his way of eating on the long term is going to be good for his overall health…
If he's hitting his macros and micronutrients with his blood work coming back normal what would he be missing to make him healthier?
Matt means that the meals he eats fulfill his nutritional needs so he eats the same thing everyday
You can still be consistent with a variety of foods (which he showcased). I'd argue that Matts consistent, thoughout out, calorie/macro controlled diet with regular exercise at a healthy weight/bf% is giving him like 99% of the health benefits and much better than people eating a variety of foods but over eating calories/not eating them consistently/not exercising enough. I'd also argue that most people don't enjoy food variety as much as they like impulsive eating, eating what they want, when they feel like it.
Another way to reduce meal decision fatigue is to have about 30 meal ideas, each on a recipe card. Throw them into a box. Each week, draw 7 random cards. Those are your meals for the week.
Oh nice! Thanks!
You will have favourite and stop doing it
amazing idea
@@jimbojimbo6873 well you gotta look until you find 30 you actually like
You must constantly be throwing out mouldy food
I really love this idea of eating out once a week to explore delicious food while sticking to a minimal healthy meal for the rest of the week. It's sort of restrictive but also exciting knowing that you'd be 'rewarded' at the end of the week. Or even if you don't go out, you can always spare one day or one meal each week to actually put in the effort to make something different at home. So even though it might exceed your caloric limitations, it will be healthier compared to the outside 'junk food'.
It's called a Cut or Calorie Deficit, but with a cheat day once a week.
@@christianaquino5230 it's not necessarily a 'cut'. Calorie deficit means you're trying to lose weight. One might just be trying to maintain their current weight.
I actually do something similar! I have about 3 different options for breakfast and 5 options for lunch & dinner I rotate through. It's really convenient because it provides the variety I want while maintaining familiarity. I know that what I am eating is nutirtious. I know how to prepare it within a reasonable amount of time. I know exactly where to find it at my grocery store.
I don't think I can get to the level of the same meal every day, but I'm glad I've found a system that I enjoy and fuels my body well. & I don't need to meal prep which is amazing for me lol
ua-cam.com/video/3lUp2C0pS_Y/v-deo.html finally it's here..
What are the meals if you don’t mind?
Wow thats informative, thank you
@@deej628 Sure!
Breakfast:
- 2 egg omelette or scrambeled w/ spinach, onions, bell peppers
- overnight oats (soy milk, greek yog, bananas, protein powder, berries, thinking of adding hemp seeds to it!)
- whole wheat peanut butter toast w/ bananas & honey & cinnamon (usually this is my "quick" meal if i dont have much time)
Lunch / dinner
- power salad (salad mxi of choice, black beans, corn, apples, cashews -- can sub chicken or turkey for beans)
- turkey avocado sandwhich (turkey + whole wheat bread + cheese of choice + chipotle sauce + light mayo + lettuce)
- rice bowl: cashews, raisins, mixed veggies, some kind of sauce of choice, lean chicken/turkey burger
- chicken / beef / turkey / fish / veggie tacos - cilantro, avocado, onion, lime if i have some
- naan mini pizzas: whole wheat naan / flat bread + shreeded cheese + turkey pep or deil turkey + bell peppers + spinach
- rice + protein + veggie (this could be a mix of so many things, sometimes a salad + turkey burger or sometimes chicken + mixed frozen veggies)
- ramen (WIP, still perfecting): instant ramen noodles + better than bullion + egg + sirracha + soy sauce. The packet is usually high in sodium so i try to avoid using them & collect them in a salt shaker
Snacks & sides
- nuts (cashews or almonds usually), raisins, berries
- fruit - plums, pears, apples, bananas, grapes, mangos. Seasonal is usually best!
- pb & js
- greek yogurt + dark chocolate + granola + fruit
- baked sweet potato
- mixed veggies or salad
- smoothie (banana + greek yogurt + soy milk + peanut butter + honey + cinnamon)
I try to use versatile ingredients so I can use them in multiple meals (eggs for breakfast & in ramen dinner for example). Usually cheaper that way and there's a lower chance of ingredients spoiling. I also have an air fryer and that's helped immensely with speeding up the cooking process. Hope this helped!
@@OzTalksHW yoooo thanks i lot i respect you for this u just got a new subscriber
I eat the exact same breakfast and lunch every day for this exact reason. Use my dinner to play around and try new things. Absolutely love the simplicity it brings to my life.
What do you have for breakfast and lunch
@@hojdog 8 am - coffee (of course). 11 am - hard boiled egg. 12 pm - cup of Greek yogurt and berries, 1/2 cucumber, and cherry tomatoes. Keeps me full and light on my feet all afternoon at work!
@@skraddle i would bit off the arm of someone eating that little! Props on you for choosing healthy options and do it with balance
This is me with Breakfast and Dinner and then I experiment with lunch :)
This feels more normal to me. I usually eat the same things for breakfast and lunch and then dinner will rotate between meals that I enjoy. I only switch up breakfast and lunch very occasionally
I totally get the point and I think it"s a great idea to have a fixed schedule of what to eat.
I just think there is one downside to this. For a healthy gut a wide variety of foods is might be the better option. So it might be helpful to pay attention to some variety and diversity. For example, to switch the vegetables. Vegetables also have a low impact on the macronutrients.
Other than that, thanks a lot, Matt. Great video.
Yes! This! I know there's a study still being conducted right now about identical twins but one is doing a vegan diet and the other is eating meat and veggies. One of the early results is that the person who didn't have too much restriction had a better diversity in gut biome than the one doing the vegan diet. Not to say that there's anything wrong with it, but it might have cause problems in the long run (which of course, takes time to see).
Exactly! Or have a huge variety of plant foods (around 30) in your meals each day... :)
Yup you know what’s up
Watching the video I think this is actually what he is doing - He switches the greens and the protein around. But fundamentally it's always veg, protein and starches such as rice
That is actually sign of Aspergers(extreme High IQ ! Often genius , eccentric , have edge , but set ways n feeling comfort in creat routine n exact , do not want to BE adviced . See any suggestion as intrusive n de Human de moralize existence). The most telling trait is “not Interested something new “ but rather enjoy the same thing already prefer .
Ps I took Nutriion, that diet is NOT healthy . Lacking zinc , calcium , n all sorts . Healthy is interpreted in “balanced meal “ if just low fat but missing other elements can creat dry skin and pre mature aging , all sorts even low it’s low fat . Organs needs those minerals. Also iron from red meat 🥩.
I have literally just talking about an odd thing about my ex form long long long ago. A dude ate the same damn thing for 10 yrs . He was suitor , at his prime , he would NOT party , no cell phone , using grandpa phone , no internet . Anyways it’s like trying to look dressy n work Financial district high rise also living 3 min walk fancy condo but live like 80 yr old . He was 6’2 Chad . Extremely strict schedule , date nights r set exact same day each week. Omg just so strange !
Years later I found out that’s ASPERGERS. I have a family member close to me have they , my husband’s family have someone like that . It’s common ! 1 in 25 men in Silicon Valley have that . It’s not mental illness , just diff way of thinking /operating .
For example
“Hi do u go to gym ?”
“Why are u ask that ? U think I am lazy/fat ?”
“Hi how much is yr …. “
“Why do u ask that ? Are u trying to see if i am cheap ?”
So they think odd . Usually often bridge with ppl n think they r d victim .
Cooking is an artistic expression, challenging, rewarding, fun, loving, caring, exciting, and so much more. It's okay that you're bad at it/don't like to spend time doing it, but I couldn't imagine life without the joy of food and cooking
totally agree, I cook to destress as well
@@quatsch6910 I waste over 2 hours at least everyday cooking for myself. So fuck it, I'm all in for automating now. I have more stuff to do in my day.
I never learned how to cook and I eat one meal the same everyday (bean and rice burritos) and its the one meal that makes me the happiest! It's seamless for me. I would like to learn but the lack of knowledge I have and the overstimulation of content out there about cooking is overwhelming. I get both sides for sure. I think if I tried a new meal once a month and tried to master it, it would help, but I certainly am not someone who can change it up everyday
I love food and variety but it is not possible with adhd (mine as cooking depletes my dopamine) . Everything goes bad and tossed - tossed so many packages of 20$ meats 😢 , veggie fruit etc even my frozen foods are in there so long they go bad . I can’t add or be creative with foods because I get stuck /overwhelmed even at suggestions of making a sauce that wasn’t planned even though I know how to make said sauce from scratch. I switch up foods but as example my lunches are an entire week of soup in a can or entire week of lettuce/meat/cheese (no bread or low carb bread as low carb has been amazing for helping with adhd) other meals is just red meat like ribeye or sirloin and if I can handle adding a veggie I do that but usually my body won’t let me cook it. My spouse loves cooking so I do get variety that way.
I want to love cooking like you
To remove/improve the decision fatigue, I usually decide what I am going to eat for the entire week on the Sunday before, and create a shopping list for everything needed. Then I go buy everything on Monday, and know what I am going to cook each day, or whether I am having leftovers. Feels less time consuming making all those decisions at once for the week instead of making it everyday.
You do you. I was waiting for the "just kidding" but it never came. Food is a passion, an experience to share with others, to enjoy and a very joyful part of living; socialy or for oneself. I'm glad you aren't doing it TOO literally, as eating the same meal every day looks like a hell I don't wanna be into
I was freaked out by the "same" meals three times A DAY. I personally would go insane! Making food is my form of meditation. Take that away from me and I am done.
This explains why Americans have an obesity epidemic
@@imhereforfitnessvideos7213 oh right.... that is why the social eaters in the mediterranean countries are sooooo sick. Because they eat with fun, a variety and with others...
@@AC-qz3uj nice try I’ve visited many of those countries and the types of foods they eat and portions are completely different than that consumed by americans. For example when I was in Greece, whom supposedly have one of the healthiest diets on earth, they consumed a lot Of fresh fish…mostly grilled or baked, salad, fresh fruit and veggies, and fresh made bread or rice as a carb.
@@imhereforfitnessvideos7213 yes of course..... They eat fish with the same veggie and rice freakin 3 times a day, 365 days a year. No variety and no gathering with other people🤣🤣🤣🤣 you are absolutely delusional. By the way I am European.
I would love to hear Nat’s unfiltered opinion on this… this would be a huge annoyance for me in a relationship. I love experimenting in the kitchen and sharing meals with my partner. Appears to work for y’all though so not sure why I feel bad for Nat lmfao
My partner only eats meat and carbs. He doesn’t eat veggies or anything spicy. He doesn’t drink coffee, chocolate or wine. A lot of his food is cereal, pasta, and pizza. I can tell you firsthand, yes….it is wildly frustrating. And we travel a lot so you can imagine that stress.
@@Pearlygirl0 To be fair, it sounds like you're dating a child.
@@Pearlygirl0 fix that mans diet so you can live long together
make this happen!!
My husband is a super picky eater-- which is the opposite of me. We're both vegan but he doesnt like new or exotic flavors and I love trying new things. It drives me insane but I love him anyways.... most of the time. ;)
From a nurtrional stand-point this might not be the best idea. Our gut microbiome (ie our second brain) THRIVE on food diversity. The more diverse your diet, the more diverse your microbiota. These microbes play an essential role in maintaining your immune system, energy levels, cognition, mood etc. Clever Guts Diet by Dr. Michael Mosley explains this importance incredibly well and is worth checking out.
Also you might be missing out on key nutrients by keeping your diet restricted.
@@tuneenthusiast2679 that was my first though as well, however if you actually watch the video - he switches up the protein and veggies, he also eats out twice a week and he doesn't deprive himself from trying new things. So, honestly, I think it is a good, diverse diet.
When you look at how most people eat, they usually rotate around 5-7 recipies they like. And they often add lots of sweets and junk food to the mix, while Matt eats the same meals that are balanced and healthy.
Reference Dr. Will Bulciewicz.
I agree.
As a nutritionist i think his diet is pretty good. His basic diet looks like it can complete macronutrient and micronutrient needs almost ideally. Gut microbes feed of fiber, fruits and vegetables which are included daily, >5 servings. In addition he also says he changes it up from time to time(80-20) and also eats out (x2/week) which does introduces meal variety.
In my opinion, leaving things to chance and not having a structure like his is more likely to promote mineral and vitamin deficiencies.
I would be interested in a 30 days vegan video, especially one with this same format where you've found a few meals you don't get sick of to eat every day.
Omg yes
I really love the "I wear the same clothes everyday" lifestyle, in fact, I've been doing that for the past year, just cause I bought a bunch of the same shirts that make me happy.
I can appreciate someone else who does this. My dinners are different, but breakfast & lunch are the same. Yes, please do 30 days of eating vegan! I’m curious to see if you feel different & what foods you choose ✌🏼🌱
Eating the same thing everyday is actually really, really helpful for me. The ONLY time I diverge is when filming.
Breakfast is almost always a bagel, eggs, kimchi
ua-cam.com/video/3lUp2C0pS_Y/v-deo.html finally it's here..
Amen
Kimchi
Question: when eating basically the same meals every day, how do you make sure that you do get enough nutriens, vitamines and minerals that aren't necessarily found in the things you eat?
Supplements.
It's too risky...
My thoughts exactly...
I'm not an expert, but even with a more diverse diet you could still have some deficiency in some vitamins and minerals, because not everyone absorbs them the same way and sometimes some drinks or foods can affect this process (ex. coffe or tea with iron). So depending on your habits, supplements are the best option (advised by your doctor and your own requirements, of course)
@@cuatrojosz Yeah, his *diet is good but changing it sometime would be better.
No always the same greens.
No always the same meat change it for fish for example.
Different carbs are good too.
He doesn't know what he is missing.
I literally do this! Minimalism has changed my life, and letting that extend to my meals is even more so. I'm single and work full time and have goals I want to achieve at the gym. I figured out what proteins, carbs and fats I needed, learned a few delicious recipes in my favorite cuisine, and I make a big batch on Sundays, and I never have to give a thought to food the rest of the week
I think this is fine because it works for you. And yes you're meeting protein needs and your macros and you seem to be doing okay so I'm glad. But I do just want to add that while macronutrients are super important to maintain your weight and increase muscle, micronutrients are also extremely important for your health. And variety in diet so that you maximise the different kinds of micronutrients has beneficial effects for your health. That being said, I feel like this was your response to the very LA kind of life where everyone is constantly doing everything and liking topping one another. Most normal people have a good few meals that they rotate between, and they can easily swap one out for another or try something new occasionally. And everyone's bodies are different, so honestly, people can need different things. But I did want to stress that a little more variety and attention to micronutrients would probably help you be even healthier - for example, have another smoothie that you like (maybe with berries since it seems like you miss that a bit) and swap between the two. The decision fatigue is minimal but the variety is optimal. This is just my take on it though!
This is assuming that the micros he takes in isn’t better than 80% of the US population.. including the healthy eaters.
With that said, I like to cook and cannot do this.
Omg yes please on the vegan for 30 days. Im very interested in doing it, and you showing what you ate, what you learned, and how to get all the nutrients you need from it would really help me.
1:50 "I don't get a ton of joy out of cooking"
That's a huge part of it, I think, for everyone. I love cooking, especially baking. Matt, what about meal prep sunday, aka, bulk meal prepping? You kind of do it a little. What about meal prepping for a month?
He gives a lot of other reasons why he always eats the same thing. He doesnt have to look for new recipes, shop for new ingredients and its easy to track how many calories and proteins he eats.
He is happy the way he is. Don't look for solutions that he is not asking..some people just don't enjoy cooking.that is it.
Theres way more to life than cooking
Would love to see you going vegan for 30 days. Tried it myself. Would be fun to see what you think about it
I feel the same pressure from others but when I eat the same I feel more energized, less stressed and procrastinate less because it's such a struggle to me. I aren't fan of food, I just want enough to live, so thanks for normalizing this with hood reasons for why it's good 😊
As someone who has struggled with my weight and relationship with food all my life, went through many periods of losing and gaining weight, is an emotional eater etc. doing this is extremely helpful.
While I used to live like this and completely relate to being completely content with it, I now feel like the reasons about "living on autopilot" and "less decisions" are a good reason NOT to do this.
Personally, I've lived with crippling decision making abilities and that's something I've been consciously working on for a while. Turns out, decision making is a skill and by taking away food choices to remove decisions, it's taking away the opportunity to practice that skill - one which I've found to be incredibly powerful. As far as living on autopilot, that can certainly be beneficial for many things. It also sounds like the opposite of fun and adventure in many ways. "Living life on autopilot in as many ways as possible" sounds like "removing as much fun, adventure, and discomfort out of life." Life is supposed to be fun. Picking even just one new meal a MONTH to cook that could then be added into the regular weekly lineup to shake it up even just a little bit would take very little time and would add just enough of a little change every week to make life a little more exciting.
Living like this seems like it would just lead to becoming that old person that gets stuck in their ways and that gets anxiety whenever they get taken out of their routine.
This would, however, be quite useful in giving veganism a try. I went Vegan about 9 months ago and since it was so new and I had no idea what to eat, I started off with just a few meals that I could repeat and then have just continued to add in a little more variety as I go along. Would love to see a 30 day vegan challenge :)
Some people just don't care all that much about food. It's just a preference thing. I, as Matt probably does, see it as fuel. Consume it and go about your day. Save your decision-making capabilities for the other thousands of choices you'll need to make that day. Maybe picking out what to wear or deciding what to eat is the highlight of their day for some people, but for others it's just not.. It won't turn you into a robot incapable of living a "fun" adventurous life.

I live in Florida, where there's a higher density of old people in general. You are correct. There are a ton of elderly people who are completely lost when their routine is distrusted.
@@CheerfulNihilism I'm in Florida too! And I see this first hand with my dad who is about to be 91. It is because of what I see in him that I have the current mindset that I do. He can't travel anymore but even when he could, he couldn't fathom making a trip here to visit me because of how much anxiety it caused him being off his routine. He's never seen where I live and never will. This is in large part why I try to embrace discomfort. I never want to become that.
I totally agree! We’re not robots 🤖😂
Definitely do 30 days plant based. Vegan isn’t quite the right label as that speaks more to a person who is plant based but has a specific philosophical stand point on animals.
totally agree
0:36 omg, thinking about what to eat is one of the joys in my life - I'd be so sad not to have such options.
Learning new recipes and getting better at cooking is rewarding too, and I've also found prepping and chopping ingredients help relieve stress.
... just amazed by this video overall, but I guess everyone is different.
Agreed. I too wear much the same outfit every day with some variations, but I love food and eating the same thing every day seems horrible to me. It's not the same as clothes at all. I need variations and I live to try out different recipes and new food.
I personally have better things to do with my life. 24 hours in a day. 8 hours sleeping, 8 working, 1 for getting dressed and showered, 3 hours to eat, I deffo only gonna spend the remaining time in something that I enjoy
i eat literally rice chicken carrots and brocoli every single day, maybe switch to meat when its cheaper, but on dinner on fridays and on weekends i eat whatever i want, usually cooking it and sometimes going out, if i trully want chinese food for example i save it for the weekend, that way i still manage to be healthy and keep lean, when i cooked a lot of variety i felt like i wasted lot more ingredients cuz i wouldn't eat as much if the food was more caloric for example
Yes, minimalism is also good for reducing anxiety.
I like to do "Sunday dinner" every once in a while, or try something new if it really piques my interest. Other than that - keep it simple.
I think part of minimalism is minimizing the things you don't care about in life to make room for what you do. So for instance I would never do this cause food is one of my deepest passions. But I absolutely do stand by wearing the same clothes everyday because I don't care about fashion, and using the same couple furniture pieces from IKEA cause they work and I don't care about interior design. Maybe someone elses hobby is sewing and making really elaborate outfits. Or woodworking. Thats all great. Where I think our culture of materialism and maximalism becomes problematic is when people are just buying mass produced massive wardrobes, eating out all the time without thinking about it, and buying a million items for their house they barely use. Then it isn't about investing in an aspect of life its just the philosophy more is better which just isn't true. More isn't helpful if you don't appreciate it.
This is exactly what I've been doing for the past 3 weeks in order to lose weight. Having too much variety was making it waaay harder to have self control. I've already lost 3 kg and it's been the easiest weight loss experience I've ever had.
I've been doing a similar routine.
4 days a week I eat same balanced meals that meet all my nutritional needs. Its kind of hard to do, it took me a while to get the plan just right to make sure I get enough iron, calcium, vitamins etc throughout the week.
1 day a week, usually Monday, I do a 24 hour fast.
On the weekends I eat mostly what I want without going crazy. So far I have lost 11 lbs.
When I lived with parents we pretty much ate same things everyday and food was blunt. But every meal at a restaurant or friends house, or festive food was feeling like I have heaven in my mouth. When I started living alone I was cooking many different things and eating out a lot, so now my taste buds can't experience the heaven in mouth unless I start eating blunt food for like two months
This is such a great explanation for why I want to cut back on eating chocolate. It doesn't feel special anymore 😩
Try incorporating some fasting, the plainest of vegetables will feel like heaven 😂
@@Yararar it's difficult for me to fast but sometimes I have a day in which I only eat cucumbers and drink kefir
Love this! I'm vegan, and have autism. I have 5 meals I rotate, that include lots of different nutrients. I'm very happy eating the same things. If I feel like it, I might try something different, but that's rare, because I absolutely love the meals I have chosen to repeat. And grocery shopping is a breeze! Thank you for helping normalize what most people think is kinda weird. Also, as a side note, I like that food is for energy, not entertainment.
Hi, is it okay if you share your 5 recipes? I would love to know, since I think I'm nutrient deficienct vegan 😅 the problem is me, though.
I'd love to know what the 5 meals are too :)
@Louis Tea Enjoyer I only eat 2 meals a day. I have 5 primary favorite meals I rotate, but they aren’t my only meals, and I don’t eat 5 times a day.
@@helenmccormick2506 My meals are vegan, but I will post them here. 😊
@@daiendelion I’ma post them here, soon. They’re pretty easy. You got this! 😊
i juess i beacame addicted to your channel , not only because of the value you present ,but only i learn english
I ate the same breakfast, the same lunch and the same dinner every day for four months for fitness and health reasons,,,,, 203 lbs to 168 lbs. I hated counting and monitoring macros so I made the decision to take the guesswork out of the whole nutrition process. Best decision I ever made!
Dude can’t wait to see how all these things pan out when you have kids. Not saying it’ll screw everything up but it’ll be interesting to see how you adapt and alter stuff
Yes, cause kids are known for wanting to try alot of new things instead of sticking to what they know and love, unless the parents make them try new stuff ;-)
@@a.b.1184 They might not like this one meal fam
Well for some reason, having kids has turned me on to minimalism. Once past the chaos of babies and infants, minimizing and simplifying makes me more available for navigating and accepting decision-making and all other kid stuff. I do agree it seems harder to accept the chaos of having babies as we get older since our habits ingrain themselves more deeply. I’m glad I faced the first years of motherhood while I had nothing figured out because that also meant I was more flexible!
@@hackluster Wow imagine someone becoming a parent past 30 🤔… it’s 2022 not 1952!
Shocker: you don’t have to eat the same food as your kids
I literally thought, "I wonder if Matt would try going vegan for 30 days?" and then that's exactly what you said you were thinking of trying. Please please try it!
I would love to see what you eat every day as a vegan. I've been plant-based for about 6 years now, and I would love to see what your minimalist meal prep would look like.
Same same! very curious
Yep, agreed
Hey Matt, I love this concept! I adopted it a while ago but with a few LARGE key changes.
1. I eat the same 3 meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day for a MONTH. It takes maybe a day or 2 to meal plan for the next month and provides seasonal variations and keeps me from getting bored.
2. I eat out once a week. Sometimes for lunch, sometimes dinner. The table is just such a wonderful place to socialize with friends and it gives me inspiration for my next meals!
Maybe people who like Matt’s idea but don’t quite want to commit all the way can follow my strategy :)
this perspective emphasizes boosting productivity through automation and quite literally discounts the “spice of life”, the pleasure mine gets from spontaneity & variety. interesting perspective but also sounds like it would be depressing for most
Definitely try going vegan for 30 days! You will crave foods initially, but after a week or two it becomes easy and an auto-pilot decision as with your meal habits now. Not to mention the benefits to health, animals and the environment :)
no benefits to health, he makes a lot of sport and will loose all his muscles if he doesn't consume proteins daily.
not really better for animals or environment either, because these fruits and vegetables are grown on a massive scale, in huge fields (deforestation, destruction of the living habitat of animal species) and cultivated with chemical fertilizer and pesticides polluting the soil and rivers. If you grow your own fruits and vegetables in your garden, then it's way better, but who does that. Who has a big enough garden, or just a garden? Who has time to do this and enough variaties of plants and quantities to be able to eat daily for the whole year?
@@Nico97fr Wow! you need to educate yourself. A lot.
@@Nico97fr read a book
@@Nico97fr Dude... please educate yourself.
@@Nico97fr totally agree. If he doesn’t have time to cook a varied normal meal, he definitely hasn’t time to go vegan :).
For me, being able to share a meal together with my friends, family, or my SO is one of the most fundamental aspects of sharing a relationship. That may sound weird, but food is so engrained into cultures all over the world, and for a good reason: it brings joy to people (or it may also just very well be that it is one of our primary needs hehe). But perhaps that feeling does not have to be coupled to eating the same food while having a meal together.
While I do agree that automating food to a certain extent can introduce huge benefits to your life, such as eating more healthy and eating more conscious in general, I can't seem to shake the feeling that Matt is taking it to an extreme. To me, there exists a perfect middle ground between eating the same thing or cooking up something complex everyday, namely expanding your arsenal of go-to recipes: by creating your own collection of recipes that work for you (nutrient/efficiency/complexity-wise), you allow yourself the freedom of eating whatever you feel like, whilst also adhering to your own constraints. Cooking is a skill, and overtime you will create efficiency, intuition, and most likely the ability to enjoy it. Not to mention that it opens up so many doors with regards to sharing that meal with someone else. But that's just my take on it.
Would suggest vegan for 60. 30 is right when you start feeling good.
I can attest to this!
i want to give this more likes than one, i agree.
Vegan is a pain in the ass to remain healthy especially when building muscle. A person with such a simple diet will have a hard time with proper veganism.
Veganism can be a complete and super healthy diet but that does require more effort and being a bit more "creative" in the kitchen than protein with salt pepper and herbs, rice and a salad.
0 is best. 0 is right where you already feel good
@@carabouzouklis Yes! Veggie is so much easier than a vegan diet in terms of planning & prepping!
I come from a bodybuilding background. In my experience, some of the healthiest people I know pretty much eat the same 2-3 meals a day. I think one of the biggest advantages to eating this way is cooking in bulke. You have what you need when you need it. You're less likely to reach for something fast and unhealthy.
The "work" pays off in living a richer life dude, like listening to more than one song and watching more than one movie, you can balance convenient consistency sometimes and other times living more of the life you've been given, you have enough life to benefit from all these different behaviors
You should look into an immersion circulator also known as a sous vide! This would be PERFECT for batch cooking protein and then you can throw it in the fridge. Then when you wanna eat you just need to sear it to reheat and your good to go! As a food content creator, what I eat is the ultimate struggle. This video was a reminder to keep it simple on the days I’m not “working” and stick to the basics to not only avoid get burnt out, but also keep the calories in check. Thanks Matt! Aloha!
As a vegan, I believe the "correct" on-repeat meal is roasted broccoli, mixed beans, brown rice, cashew-sunflower seed sauce with nutritional yeast, and a piece of fruit? I built a repeatable plate once, but I'm basing this on memory.
@Aran Brancato YW. I'd recommend double checking with cronometer or a nutritionist, to be sure and determine amounts of each.
Nah,eat most reach foods on planet.Liver,hearth,raw meat,eggs,honey,fruits,dairy
@@Dave-cm3pm My diet is excessively rich as it is, thanks.
You should definitly go and be vegan for 30 days :) But if you do, do it seriously. Do not simply eat unseasoned tofu or stuff like that. I would love to see you trying to be vegan for 30 days. :)
Thank you for the video. I agree with your approach. Though I eat different foods than you (but share the same high protein focus) eating the same thing makes life so much easier. I heard another UA-camr (Brix Fitness) say that eating healthy is not difficult, it is boring; so embrace the boring aspect and appreciate how it frees your mind to focus on other things, like the wording on a UA-cam comment.
Not gonna lie, but this life would be absolutely horrible for me. But to each their own i guess
Me too back when I had a family to appreciate my cooking skills. Now I'm older and single, this suits me perfectly.
I'd love to see you try a vegan diet for at least 30 days! Make sure to not simply go for substitute products though, but to cook with fresh ingredients from scratch. "Yeung man cooking" and "pick up limes" are some awesome cooking channels for even more awesome food.
You Matt, are the cover face for "eating to live and not living to eat". My dad had that as his motto and lived and was mighty healthy until he died at a very mature age. He lived way longer than most people.
Do you, boo!
Doing the same boring things will create an extraordinary life. On the other hand, I strongly believe that we must try out new things sometimes, because that's the only way to grow and gain new experience. It's always inspiring how far can people go if they stick to their healthy routines - thanks for the video! :)
I have a feeling you don't know what extraordinary means..
@@baron5688 I mean, repeating the same exercise a ton of times gives you a great result, maybe he means that? Like, taking small steps to become special? I don’t get it either…
@@Arcaryon You are right :)
I eat the exact same thing day in and day out
Overnight Oats with Blueberries
Lean Protein usually Chicken or Fish, Veggies (California Blend or StirFry) and Rice
Burrito Bowl with lean ground turkey
Sugar Free Fudge Popsicles
Why? Because I know exactly the amount of calories and macros
I Prep 4-5 days at a time
I only go to the grocery store once a month
I know exactly what my bill will be every time
It breaks down to close to $30 a week
I've lost over 100lbs and continue to maintain that
I dont have to worry about coming up with anything
Once a week I cook a different meal because I enjoy cooking but for the most part dont have the time
I eat out maybe 2-3 times a month and that allows me variety
Next step is buying the same shirt in different colors because man do I hate looking for something to wear.
I can’t be the only one who would rather lose a limb than be stuck doing this for the rest of my life…food is such an incredible part of life! Cooking, eating, sharing, it’s such a valuable part of my human experience, I just don’t understand how he doesn’t feel like he is missing out.
My brother said the same. He said if he did the same things every day for the rest of his life he'd just sit in the corner and cry lmfao
It’s helpful when in some ppl it depletes dopamine. I would love to cook for my spouse and myself - and I have managed it before (rare) but it is physically painful to cook. My body doesn’t want me cooking. I usually end up cooking meat for myself no carb no vegetables rarely. I do get variety since he likes cooking. 10/10 don’t recommend having adhd
@@ElinWinblad I have chronic pain and ADD as well, so many days, cooking is out of the question, but I’ll still grab a frozen bagged stir fry, toss it in a pan, leave it for 10 minutes, and have something tasty to enjoy. I just love eating I guess haha
I think it depends on your other interests. I love learning languages, painting, drawing, creating content, writing, and I tend to eat the same stuff over and over again because I rather free up my time so I can enjoy my other hobbies :) to some people planning their meals and cooking is kind of like a hobby, something that bring them joy, so more power to them!
2:51 go vegan Matt! I don’t eat the same thing every day, BUT I am a lazy cooker like yourself. There’s a channel called Cheap Lazy Vegan (perfect for me lol) and she gives a ton of easy vegan recipes that are flavorful, don’t hurt your wallet, or take too long to make, which is what intimidates most people about veganism
Also check out Simnett Nutrition - his meals are super easy but frigging amazing!

Looking forward to the 30 day Vegan challenge video. Here are a couple of recipes that might help you hopefully sustain the plant based diet. I have been vegan for 3 years now, and like you I was also constantly thinking about my protein for building muscle. But from experience I can tell you that a vegan diet if done right has a lot of protein automatically as we try to follow a whole food plant based diet. Also I have learned that our gut in general needs variety of plants and fruits to keep it happy.
Here is one recipe that I follow daily to get a meal with all nutrients. This can be a daily meal similar to what you have:
Roasted Chickpeas Salad Bowl:
Part 1: Roasted Chickepas
- preheat oven to 400F
- Drain a can of chickpeas,
- Dry it out using a cloth/paper towel
- In a bowl toss the chickpeas with 1 tsp paprika, .5 tsp garlic powder, .25 to .5 tsp salt, drizzle oil of choice
- Spread the chickpeas onto a baking sheet and put it in the oven for around 18 to 25 minutes depending on how roasted you like it
Part 2: While the chickpeas are being roasted, make the dressing
in the same bowl used for the chickpeas:
- 2 tbsp Vegan yogurt (plain)
- 1 tbsp tahini
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon to taste (1tsp should be good), I don't add lemon to my dressing as I like it better that way
- 1 tsp dill weed
- Can add some paprika, onion powder and garlic powder to taste
- drizzle water based on how thick/thin you want the dressing to be
- you can add 1 tsp nutritional yeast to add some cheesiness to the dressing
Once the chickpeas and dressing is ready, in a bowl just toss a romaine mix with some of the dressing, then use a salad bowl to add a layer of the romaine mix, some rice, chickpeas on top and drizzle as much of the dressing on top.
Note: you can add some chopped nuts and also roasted sweet potatoes to make it even more nutritious,.
Another recipe we love is:

@♜ P𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐝 by Matt D'Avella is the vegan vid out? link
I dont eat the same thing everyday but I have 3 to 4 meals on repeat. Breakfast is either a skyr bowl with applesauce and slithered almonds or oatmeal with cooked apple and cinnamon, toast with nut butter and banana. Lunch is either a vegetarian chili, pasta salad or sushi. Dinner is usually some type of fish with some kind of green vegetable and sweet potato 😊
you should totally do the vegan for 30 days challenge - after going vegan the recipe base was still overwhelming, but it brought on a love for cooking and finding a sense of creativity for me ! I'm also curious if you would still do the same meals or explore new recipes/ingredients in your challenge !
Same for me! In fact, I used to live pretty much just like Matt does in this video. I thought I was going to be restricting myself by going vegan but now I eat more variety than ever before, am actually cooking and preparing meals on a regular basis for the first time in my life, and looking so much more forward to every meal now :)
Yeah, that's a really good reason.
Vegan has its downside in the long run. You’ll destroy your body from the inside out.
The Vegan diet was made in the games of the Colosseum in Rome for the gladiators. Obviously more padding more protection. If the gladiators didn’t have extra fat they’d loose.
It’s only good for 3 years then you’ll start to kill your self
I dont think that everybody wants to spend a lot of time on exploring new recipes/ingredients. I did vegan challenges, the longest I did was 2 months. It was also a health challenge, so ketchup with fries wasnt alllowed. My conclusion was of you wanna eat healthy as a vegan it is a lot of work. In the end I did quite dairy and beef, pork and lamb, but to go vegan is not for me. I'd rather spend the time I save from not cooking elaborate new meals on working and building my business or spending time with family and friends.
@@Churros1616 I think that’s fair, if you want to explore a new interest or explore veganism I think it will be an adjustment. However if you make the same recipes after finding what you like (even changing some ingredients to include different variety into your diet) it could be something not as time consuming each week. I’m not saying veganism works for everyone (everyone has different needs and wants in their diet and lifestyle) but I think it would be doable.
I'd love to see you do a 30 day veganism challenge personally. Super easy to meal prep, and with the right recipes the meals don't need to be any harder or any less tasty than the stuff you seem to be on eating on the daily now.
Anyway, great video as always. Keep up the great work, I've always been a big fan of your film-making/video-making style!
When I was living with my parents, the worst question was "what are we going to eat?". Thinking of what to eat was taking so much effort. And all of us are eat to live, not live to eat types. Now, when I live alone, I have a few main dishes I rotate in a week and it's more or less the same dish every Monday, Tuesday etc. Not having to think about what to eat is a blessing. But recently it really got repetitive, so I started to experiment just once in a while.
My meals i eat every day for years now:
Breakfast:
2 eggs over medium
Geek yogurt w/ granola
Protein shake
Coffee coffee coffee
Lunch:
Tuna packet
Protein shake
Grilled chicken w/ peas carrots and corn
Dinner:
Whatever my wife makes.
If she isn't cooking we eat a protein, a veggie, and a fruit for desert. On special occasions i add brown rice.
I really love your style man. It's just over calming.
Sameeeee. Eating the same thing everyday makes life more simple, helps you to make faster decisions, and get things done faster and efficiently! Love this video!! I couldn’t agree with you more! 👏🏼👌🏼
I highly disagree with this routine. It's not only about eating the same foods over again and again. In my culture, meals are a time for bonding over food and the cooking process of different dishes is included.
first, you should change your workouts tho, same workout everyday for 10 years is not optimal.
Try breaking your training into 6 week blocks, and change your accessories every block. It allows for more progressive overload by variations in muscle fibre emphasis.
Gosh, finally someone who eats like me. I do not mind eating the same stuff all the time. My food works for me, it is healthy and I’m in the best shape of my life. ❤️
LOVED the VDO! The last 2 mins of ur VDO made the whole "I eat the same thing everyday" sustainable for me. For those of you who didn't watch till the end, It's because it isn't really the same thing every single day for 365 days.
I'll be following Matt's strategy from now on too!
The wise stay financial stable by spending less and investing more and the unwise remains poor by spending more and yet not investing like the wise ones do.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don't know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or crypto and stocks.
I have had no luck investing in crypto currency, I actually invest on my own but my profit aren't always as I expect sometimes I keep on losing money.
@Nancy Lewis Yes I've heard about this Mr Barry Silbert and his good investment strategies at my work place
I started with $15k dollars and since following.
Him for few months I've gotten up to $32k... Thank you. It's a small gain to many but large to me as the more I get the more I can do.
@@jacquijaboneroespina7402 Congratulations that is a real success story in my opinion. Success because you didn't allow the amount to determine whether or not you would jump in. Good job. See you at the 100k meet and greet.
you should watch the game changer, seasparcy and the sicily episode of zac efron around the world to find out, how bad daily meat and fish consumption is bad for your body and the enviroment. Also in western society we eat to much protein. I mean this comment for got :) i hope your start simply adding more vegetarien und vegan recipies in your weekly cooking! Great video though!
Love this video! The videography is on point aswell 🤝🏼
Having a boring and repetitive diet is the key to losing weight and staying in shape. Makes calorie counting, super easy. A game changer.
yes do a vid of you being vegan for 30 days
This sounds downright depressing, not boring lol
Sounds great tbh
I'm on the different meal schedule with my boyfriend as well. I thought we only one, I''m glad it is kind of normal. And if Matt does it we can do it too.
I’ll admit Matt, I’ve ventured off from your content (no specific reason) but I’m glad I came back!
As always, great work. Thanks for sharing
HONESTLY this is one of the most underrated lifehacks out there - just make a diet that fulfills all your micro/macronutrients & calories, make it taste good with spices/sauces, meal prep as much as you can on Sunday, and you've min/maxed the costs. I even have scheduled when my groceries are delivered to my door. Weirldy we got raised to not want to eat the same dinner 2 days in a row yet that just complicates things disproportionately. And did I mention that buying in bulk since you're gonna eat the same thing over and over lowers costs??! 😁
That's an interesting concept, I might actually try that. Maybe not exactly the same all the time, but having a few recipes that I know and like might make things easier. And yes, please, please try going vegan for 30 days. And then raw vegan for 30 days afterwards for the extra kick. I would really love to know what you research and experience and how it might influence future decisions.
this is such an underrated lifestyle. i find that when you eat the same thing on the regular during work days, you can really appreciate trying out new foods over the weekends after work hours :)
This is exactly how I like to live! I have minimal clothes, eat the same breakfast, lunch and dinner every single day. It’s always nice to , once a week, treat myself to a nice meal inside or outside the house. It makes me appreciate all the little things so much more! I think there’s too much food choice out there. Keep it simple !
Eggs
Milk
Rice&chicken
Water and dates
Mangos and apples
Yes, I want to see you go vegan for 30 days! I’ve been vegan for 5 years and I feel so much better. Last summer when many of my family converted over to keto, I thought I would give it a try. I felt exhausted and went back to my vegan lifestyle after a month. Do your research and eat plenty.
Can you share some of your meals please?
@@nadiaserhani665 Buddha bowls are my favorite go-to. I also love 15-bean soup.
@@chalktalkwithshari4173 thank you - will try them out
"boring on purpose", loved it !
I've been vegan for 6 years now, doing a lot of sport (endurance running and Crossfit) I feel really good, in my head and in my body 💪 I would love you to try Veganism for a month, or more 🙄. It can be difficult when it's not a choice we make out of conviction but I think it's worth it, for our health, the animals and the planet
Great video !
Isn't that too much meat?
That's what i thought, too. My digestion wouldn't thrive off that 😐
For the last two years I’ve been eating the same thing and wearing the same color. I thought I was weird for doing it but this video makes me feel as if it’s perfectly normal. Since I started doing this I’ve lost so much weight and when able to keep a consistent Weight goal. Plan on doing it for the rest of my life.
What color?
@@ClaireDobransky blue and it’s not even my favorite color lol but I keep buying it.
@@XxWaWKingxX I wear blue all the time too!
I've been vegan for almost two years now, and I have to say that it is not a trend but a lifestyle, and it should be a decision you take to align with your values, not an experiment to see if you notice any changes in your life.
You also have to keep in mind that veganism is not only about food, but it is also about refusing animal exploitation in every aspect of your life, and that includes your clothes and shoes, your skincare products, and entertainment activities such as going to the zoo, etc.
To sum up, if you want to try to be vegan for 30 days, I encourage you to do so, as you will save so many animal lives and you will reduce your carbon footprint as well. But bear in mind that this is a controversial topic to talk about and that you should not treat it as a "fun" experiment.
I thought the same thing. You can't say something like "I can try veganism, but for now...beef" so casually. You can say "Plant-Based Diet" (if you just want to experiment with food), but veganism is against all live beings' suffering (even in clothes, hygiene products, Palm Oil... ).
Yeah, like most people he is not aware that veganism is a philosophy. He wants to try a plant-based diet.
I started eating the same breakfast everyday about 3 weeks ago. Now I don’t think I’m odd so thank you 🙏🏾 Following the same pattern is so comforting and is one less thing to have anxiety about. You’re doing a great job & teaching us well about Macros. I came in thinking it was good to be like ‘My Strange Addiction’ 😅
I also eat the same breakfast everyday. I thought it was normal lol
What do you guys eat?
@@dwarfyman4899 lol you are
@@deej628 bacon 🥓 and fried eggs 🍳 with salt pepper & oregano.
Okay......as a Sicilian girl this goes against every thing I love. I love to cook. I love too look at cooking books. Cooking shows.....it endless. I give you so much credit for you're discipline. I know you're Italian so what do you do the during holiday season??? No "feast of seven fishes?"
I can relate to this. My daily meal isn't quite this healthy but I try to hit all my nutritional needs with it. It just simplifies my life knowing exactly how long lunch will take to cook and what I'll need for it.
I think going vegan for 30 days would be a great video
Am I the only one that really likes making decisions? It’s somehow empowering to know that you have so many choices every day
I make decisions every day like I can choose to buy a bunch of ingredients to cook knowing full well it will all rot before I remember I have it
Hey Matt, have you ever made video about what you do when you are not working? Like, this video gave me a vibe for a moment that all you do revolves around working and being productive which is not entirely true I guess. So I would like to see a video about what you do after work, how u spend your free time, what are your hobbies.
I'm the same! I've got a few different meals I like to rotate between but most days I have a chicken wrap for lunch. The wrap has chicken and rice that I cook every week, avocado, beans and spring mix. If you cook the chicken well and add nice seasoning to it, it still tastes so good by the time we get to Friday.
I would love to see how you manage a Go Vegan 30 days challenge ! I slowly “veganized” my life over the last 2 years because my GF is vegan, but I am really interested in a 30 day experiment before I could maybe try it aswell !
Break up with her, you’re just dating her to get some ass and she is just dating you to inflate her own weak Ego and say, “ I’ve turned my BF vegan!!” When really she’ll probably cheat on you with a guy that probably eats meat.
Wow. This just seems like a whole joke to me.
Cooking and Eating is one of the most important parts of my life and it opens me such a wide range of lifelessons. Like health, balance, taste whatever.
But very interesting to know that you and probably other people are able to live that way.
I'd love to see you go vegan for 30 days, I did this challenge 3 years ago and stuck with it for 3 months instead. Now, i've been vegan for about 2 years and I love it, aside from the health benefits theres a serious problem with animal farming that is in no way ethical. I've been wathcing your videos since 2018 and I'd love to see you try this challenge and share this message!
You are talking about health benefits but as a vegan you really on vitamin B12 supplement.Animals are meant to be eaten and there is no any problem with eating them.We as a humans have eaten meat since the beginning of this world and if you are Vegan i support you but don't talk that meat is "BAD FOR YOU"
@@thesrech343 Nowhere does he say "bad for you." Those were your words. Don't misquote people. He talked to the health benefits that he personally experienced, along with the problems associated with animal farming. Aside from all that, sure, our ancestors relied on a lot of meat because there were not a lot of options. But too much meat combined with all the other crap many folks eat could have adverse affects. Most could do to at least mix in much more plants into their diets and back off a little on the meat.
@@thesrech343 I'm vegan. Humans evolved to be able to eat a wide verity of diets(As long as it's minimally processed.) and still be healthy. Keep in mind that our ancestors had to often go for a long time without meat before being able to finally hunt down an animal. When it comes to B12, animals don't make B12, it actually comes from a bacteria. We used to be able to get it from plants, but not anymore because of our poor farming practices killed off that spices of bacteria. Now, we even have to supplement our animals. So, in a way, even you are supplementing B12 anytime you buy meat, you are just doing it indirectly.
✨❤️”Boring on purpose” is very underrated! I’ve eaten the same basic breakfast and lunch for months at a time, then dinner is the only meal I have to think about….way less stress and thinking about food. I have a list of dinners I love, pick from that list to plan my week and shopping order….perfect!❤
