I've just been reading through your comments and it makes me so happy to see all this positivity! Thanks so much for all the feedback I'll definitely be doing another one of these videos again soon
Niomi, this is so great because I eat or am getting into eating like almost as clean as you. Sometimes I get stuck with what to make at home and I end up making chicken and some veggies but this is great for new ideas and variations. Overall great video :)
PLEASE make these a regular thing, babe! :) You eat so healthy, really inspiring! I do Food Diary Fridays the odd time as I love seeing what other people eat, it always gives me different ideas and even making the videos keeps me aware of the quantities I eat, etc!
Melanie Murphy omg Melanie, I saw your channel last week and started working out after seeing your H4H from like two years ago... I'm already so happy and feeling better after eating healthier and working out, and I've already lost some weight too! I agree, Niomi is so inspirational!!
Yes, PLEASE do these weekly. I feel so inspired to eat healthily now and I'm definitely making those sweet potato fries. I actually like your health videos more than any you do, they are so informative and inspiring. x
Im currently over weight and have been my whole life. Poor food choices and lack of education has led me down this path. I am currently on a low calories diet to shift the weight but eventually i don't want count calories any more. I want to eat healthy but i have no education or knowledge on how to! Your videos have helped me realise what im missing out on. I am going to book myself a healthy cookery class to understand healthy foods!
With the extra food you make, how do you reheat it? Or do you just eat it cold? I always cook more than I need, and save it but never end up eating it! x
***** I think the key is to heat it up the way it tastes best. Some things go soggy in the microwave but tastes great if you pop them in the oven for a few moments.
Thank you for sharing this :) I like that it shows that even when you're eating healthy you can still eat enough. Every diet I followed always allowed me to eat such a tiny amount of food that I ended up snacking bad things at the end of the day. My parents do not allow me to become vegan, but I will try some of your recipes.
***** I'm not saying she eats alot, I think she eats a healthy amount of food. It's good that she can have a full plate for dinner. I know it's mainly vegtables but vegtables can be very tasty as well :) I was just saying that it's good that she eats enough so she isn't hungry all day. I have been strugling with my weight for the last couple of years and my problem with most diets is that I do not eat enough and start snacking.
You're such an inpsiring person that u make me want to change my standard lifestyle to a plant-based diet. I love your videos and it's amazing how you have come so far publishing you own book! You really deserve it. Love u, Nimbobs xxx
You see, what I love about your healthy eating is that it looks incredibly yummy! I used to associate healthy with "bad tasting" or "bland" or even "disgusting", so everytime I tried getting healthier, I'd feel like I was about to torture myself, depriving myself from all tasty food. But when I see you and Marcus and some other youtubers eating healthy and really enjoying it, it helps making me change my mind. I've already found quite a few healthy recipes that I really enjoy making and eating, which I never thought was possible! So yeah, slowly but surely I am making a change in my lifestyle, and at 22, it was more than time to get myself in check! I still struggle of course because my Relationship with food has never been healthy: food is my comfort blanket and my enemy at the same time. But yeah, as I said, trying to make a positive change, and that's in part thanks to you. So thanks for inspiring your viewers Niomi! I particularly hope that teens will get into the habit of healthy eating as soon as possible, since the older you are, the tougher it is to change your whole lifestyle! PS: thanks for making eating about giving energy to your body and preserving your health and not about getting a "dream" or "perfect" or "beach ready" body, because we have already way too many people teaching that, and that's unhealthy!
Well I suppose she lives a vegan/vegetarian life style sometimes because it's really healthy so she used to it ;) I'm vegetarian so this is what I eat on a daily basis and it's actually alright!
For me it's not boring! There's sooo many veggies and so many ways to prepare them and combine them with other delicious things. Plus they make you feel so much better and more energized than processed food and stuff like that! :)
Amber Gillan Nope! Thats exactly how I felt before I stopped eating meat. "Eating veggies is so boring! How could anyone do that" I would say to myself haha. I was actually so suprised how tasty and delecious it is! Eating a plant based diet allows you to experiment with so many different flavours. It is faaaar from boring. There are LOADS of recipes you can find online. Its all about being creative and using your imagination. Also, they make you feel so satisfied and good. If you're not ready to go vegan, then go vegetarian for a while to add more flexibility as your body adjust. xx
Shooter21Des I'm always trying to be vegetarian but I last like 2 or 3 days and cave in with chicken, I just love having chicken with veg, I find it so hard, I guess cause it's what I've been bought up on, a meat based diet, that's 22 years of habit/what i'm use to, I'm trying to change. Any suggestions to help me?
***** If you crave any animal based products it s usually because you aren't eating enough and are craving something calorie dense, so make sure you get your carbs in, like rice or potatoes.
LOVE LOVE LOVE! Please do more of this type of video because they are so inspiring and helful for people like myself who try on a regular basis to eat this healthily but often fail! You've given me hope x
Thank you so much for sharing our lifestyle with so many people! I just hope all the viewers understand that this is not another diet, but a lifestyle. Everyone is on their own journey and it is important to listen to your body. Thanks again and I'm really looking forward to more of these videos! :)
livelifeandbevegan Yes totally agree with you! It's not some kind of fad diet in any way - it's a lifestyle choice. I think people know that about the way I eat already. I don't agree with dieting! Glad you enjoyed this video :)
Yes! I REALLY enjoyed this!!! Please continue to do this. I'm actually starting a 10-day cleanse tomorrow and think I'll find some of your recipes helpful once I can actually start cooking substantive meals. Thank you!
I need to stop watching videos like this when I'm hungry, I'm now dramatically draped across my bed starving to death :') Although I'm definitely feeling inspired to make something healthy for lunch!
I really love what you eat in a day videos! I've watched them more than once to get new ideas or recipes/ ingredients to try!! Thank you soo much for posting these!! Take care!
It is, actually. Much of the ‘brown’ bread you’ll find in the supermarket is simply just white bread with brown coloring, often caramel, added back into it. Neither brown nor white bread are too healthy, although they're not necessarily super unhealthy if you're eating it in the quantity that Niomi is (like I wouldn't stop myself from eating it). But if you wanna go the fully healthy route, I'd just go with whole grain bread or something like that
+99growlithe99 I can't believe companies would go this far to trick us into eating something we obviously don't want. I never knew there was a difference between whole grain bread and brown bread. I always thought brown was a more simpler way of saying it.
It would be super helpful if you put the recipes in the description or on a separate blog post? Just came back for the salsa recipe and it occurred to me! :-) x
I absolutely loved this video Niomi, it's simple but super interesting. I've been needing some inspiration and you have definitely provided that for me. Keep up the great work. Also, I think it would be great if you did more videos like these and it's great that you enjoyed doing it. Much love!
Love the idea! Please do these kinds of videos! Trying to change your diet is so hard but you inspire me to cut the bad stuff and want to eat better. I wish I had the amazing shops you have in the UK but in the states, it's hard to find alternatives like that. Love you! xx can't wait to see more!
Frozen grapes are so good! Do you have the deliciously ella cook book? If you don't you NEED to get it! All the recipes are really healthy and vegan. Do you know if you put a banana in the freezer and then blend it up it tastes like banana ice cream! It is so nice!
Please continue making these videos!! All the videos of you showing us what you eat and how you make it have inspired me to be healthier with everything! Much love from Los Angeles
I fear that people are becomming influenced into completely avoiding sugar and salt from their diets because they think its poison. They are both extreme neccessities to the diet in moderate control. What salt is what allows your brain to send nervous impulses (so you can move your arms and legs) sugar is used in order for you to be able to respire. Everything, even fat is needed, you just have to make sure it's all balanced!
It's good to avoid eating lots of refined sugar which doesn't do much for you but provide you with calories. Natural sugars in fruits and so on are good and essential for a balanced diet. But there's nothing wrong with having a treat once in a while haha :)
Salt is not needed in the body, sodium however is essential, sodium is naturally found in all fruit and veggies, there is no need to add granulated salt other than for taste. Sugar is completely necessary though, your body needs glucose and going low carb is not sustainable.
You may have already said this before, but where did you learn to cook? You always seem to be making such interesting and tasty food! I know you said you like to gather recipes, is that mainly where you get ideas from? & I've tried going vegan twice now and lasted a max of 3 days. It's so hard when everyone in my house isn't vegan & so it ends up costing more for my mum to get me ingredients which would be suitable for me to eat! Is anyone around 17 or younger who is vegan? If so do you have any tips?? - Wow this was a long comment!x
amelia pawlak I'm actually almost 21 now, so a bit over your age limit! But I started going veggie when I was living with my family in high school. Basically, it took a bunch of long talks with my mum about what it meant to be getting different groceries and cooking my own meals, plus there were all sorts of concerns she had. So talking with one or both parents is crucial. The other thing that helped me incredibly was that whenever my mum said she was going grocery shopping, I always just went along. It ended up being fun time with my mum, but it meant that along the way, I just threw foods I wanted to be eating into the cart. Lastly, I offered to make food for the entire family from time to time. This meant learning to cook meat too since they weren't vegan, or finding a good filling recipe they would like (such as a nice red curry with tons of veggies and rice). Hope this helps!
I'm 15 and I've been vegan for 9 months now. When I first started I made sure to look for vegan recipes online that tasted really good to make the transition easier. I recommend 'deliciouslyella' recipes and a vegan UA-cam channel called 'plantbasedjudy'. You don't need to eat complex dishes , just some potatoes and veggies for example fills you up and it's super easy to make. I live in a non vegan household and my family love whenever I make something vegan for them. I suggest you watching the documentaries 'earthlings' and 'the best speech ever by Gary yourofsky' because that will then give you reasons apart from health to go vegan. Also check out high carb vegans on Instagram and UA-cam because in my opinion it's one of the best vegan diets to follow! Good luck and I promise you going vegan will be one of the best decisions you make :)
Hey :) I'm 14 and I've been vegan for about a year, I agree with the comment above. I go shopping with my mum to find vegan things and when I can't go with her I write a list of things to get, the products and the brands that I want (to make sure that it's all vegan). Finding a health food or vegan supermarket type shop in your area is always really helpful. I recommend you watch the videos on the youtube channel 'Bite Sized Vegan', she has videos that are really informative and informational about veganism ^.^ Following plant based instagram accounts is a really good idea, and some other blogs (as well as the blogs listed above, which I love) that I like are 'This Rawsome Vegan Life' and 'Fragrant Vanilla Cake'. I hope this helped? Good luck x
Love Daisies Plants contain the best sources of vitamins and minerals that humans can possible get! Becoming vegan is one of the healthiest decisions you can make , educate yourself more on the topic and your mum and hopefully one day you/ll decide to go vegan! :)
I was like "waiting for Theresa blueberry's comment" and then: I directly saw you haha:D I don't know who you are but I will have a look at your channel now;)
I would love it if you do these kind of video's on a regular basis! I also loved your Marbella vlog. It's just so relaxing whenever you vlog. I'm also wanting to start a more plant-based/semi-raw diet since wheat and gluten make me very bloated and give me weird cramps. I've been trying it out for a while and I really like this way of eating. It's also more fun to cook meals with loads of vegetables haha
Absolutely loved this - you are too cute! And it's so helpful to see very doable healthy meal ideas to help me be more creative and just get fresh ideas! I typed all of your dinner recipes into my phone as you were showing them so I can try them!
I loved this video Niomi! I've been vegan and trying to eat healthy for the past 3 years and it's sometimes it's hard to figure out what to eat. A lot of times the recipes or food ideas I find online are so time consuming I can never do them on my normal busy schedule, so these easy ideas were so refreshing, and also so inspiring to come from a youtuber I watch already for your beauty and style. So thank you so much, and I hope you do more of these!
Pinterest! Trust me, coming from a vegetarian, I find this app so easy. Just look up "vegetarian recipes" or whatever and there are loads and loads :) x
Cesca May Well chocolate comes from a plant so it could be a salad! LOL gonnna check out your channel! I have one too, if you wanted to check it out! xx
I don't agree with you describing eating a teeny tiny slice of brown bread as "cheeky". Your diet is immensely healthy and virtually carbohydrate free so that amount of bread is hardly cheeky in any way. We need some form of carbohydrate to survive and perceiving that food group, one of the healthier options in the food group as well, isn't delivering a good message to young people.
Frozen blueberries are so so nice!!! I've never had frozen grapes but the blueberries are just like ice cream! I have them for my snacks a lot! I'm going to try the grapes soon! I love how healthy you are and I'm the same as you on that I love sweat potatoes! Ive gotten a lot of ideas from this video!
I'm actually so jealous of all the food you eat! I wish I could be that healthy, I don't have the money to buy the food and my family aren't interested in this sort of food ahah. One day I'll manage to persuade them I'm sure!
she eats enough calories I think. if you read a bit about food you'll know that she ate a lot of good carbs, fibre and protein. vegan diet isn't too hight on protein this they need to substitute with grains, nuts and lemingous veggies. if you tried food like this your know how full yet not stuffed you'd feel. it's great. I eat like that.
yes but if you take a look at what "that vegan couple" for example, eats then this doesn't seem like enough food on a vegan diet. When you're vegan you're supposed to eat more than the average meat, eggs and dairy eater.
I suppose that maybe you're right, but the calorie intake depends on age, body fat and acitivity. If you underway, your body starts storing fat and she doesn't look like she's got any on. I eat about that much but I'm 10 years older than her and I'd say it's defo enough and I'm size 6-8. At least for me. She may have faster metabolism and maybe should have more but it works for her.
I really loved watching this video, really inspiring! I would absolutely love for you to make this a regular thing! I have been trying to live a healthier life and it just helps so much to see how a real person eats, rather than just reading information from the internet.
A lot of carbs? 100-300 calories aren't that much carbs at all. Besides, carbs don't really keep you full unless they have a lot of fiber too. Protein is usually the one who keeps someone full.
Ashley Williams it is little. i bet she eats like round 1500 kcal's a day which by the way if you check the guide for daily recommended intake for adults, it suggests eating between 2200-2500 or something. So no, assuming that it's little doesn't mean she/i eat big servings. More like, NORMAL servings
I literally love all your healthy food and workout videos! It makes me actually want to try and live a healthier life so thank you and I would love to see more videos like this in the future
thanks for the reply. :) i've noticed (since I now work part-time at a grocery store) that veggies aren't too expensive but the price of fruit is crazy. :/
It totally is a possibility! Plantbased foods are some of the cheapest on the planet . For example a bag of rice may cost you about £1.00 and it can last for several meals. Potatoes , fruit, veggies, oats as well can all be super cheap if you just find the right deals. You don't have to spend a lot of money to get healthy :)
I used to use grocery money on all the junky foods like packaged pasta, crisps bags and chocolate bars, now all that money goes on veggies. When ever I spend good money on veggies, I just tank god im not spending it on some other foods! (point being junky foods will cost the same if not more)
I would LOVE to see these videos every week, or however often you can put them up. I also have a plant based diet, but you're a bit healthier than me (haha), so just seeing what you eat gives me lots of ideas and inspo - out of all the youtuber/bloggers - I end up recreating your recipes the most! Gonna give that quinoa and veg a go tomorrow assuming we have some left over :)
How can she say at 10:23 that there was SO MUCH on the plate? I mean, I'm from Spain, here we have Mediterranean diet and I would say that dinner was healthy but not enough oh my god
Marta510 it's about the size I normally eat. Maybe a bit less. But I was in exchange in Spain for a summer and you Spaniards eat so much 😂 this is coming from an American 😂
Weekly videos like this pleeeeeeeease! It is sooooo nice to finally get ideas for plant-based foods I can eat that are REALISTIC and don't cost my life savings to buy at the supermarket
You're my favourite UA-camr Niomi, I really love you xx Thank you for putting this video together, I wouldn't know how to eat clean if it weren't for you ❤️
I've just been reading through your comments and it makes me so happy to see all this positivity! Thanks so much for all the feedback I'll definitely be doing another one of these videos again soon
I love these videos you should do more of these I love you xx
I love this video and I love you too niomi! You and Marcus are just relationship goals😂😭😭😭😻😻😘💗💗💗
Btw 3rd liker🙋🏻😁😂💗👋🏻

Niomi, this is so great because I eat or am getting into eating like almost as clean as you. Sometimes I get stuck with what to make at home and I end up making chicken and some veggies but this is great for new ideas and variations. Overall great video :)

Melanie Murphy added to favourites!
Melanie Murphy I just love you 😍😍
Melanie Murphy omg Melanie, I saw your channel last week and started working out after seeing your H4H from like two years ago... I'm already so happy and feeling better after eating healthier and working out, and I've already lost some weight too! I agree, Niomi is so inspirational!!
Omg Melanie you +1'd my comment, omg thank you so much!
Instablaster
Niomi being a bit cheeky:
'Eats 3/4 slice of bread'
Me being a bit cheeky:
Eats 7 Easter eggs
Same
emilyroux literally same like I just ate Cadbury eggs
Oh my god saame
emilyroux What means "being a bit cheeky"?
emilyroux hahahahahaha MEET YOUR SISTER!
Yes, PLEASE do these weekly. I feel so inspired to eat healthily now and I'm definitely making those sweet potato fries. I actually like your health videos more than any you do, they are so informative and inspiring. x
Im currently over weight and have been my whole life. Poor food choices and lack of education has led me down this path. I am currently on a low calories diet to shift the weight but eventually i don't want count calories any more. I want to eat healthy but i have no education or knowledge on how to! Your videos have helped me realise what im missing out on. I am going to book myself a healthy cookery class to understand healthy foods!
Try to eat a whole food plant based diet with lots pf healthy carbs! xx
+Jodie Adams all the best hope it is going well :)
We definitely need to go for some lunch soon lovely! This was such a great vlog, amazing idea. Totally inspired for todays food now :) xx
Nhammm, you actually are inspiring me to eat clean and healthy
me too!
Same
Me too Nimbob x
With the extra food you make, how do you reheat it? Or do you just eat it cold? I always cook more than I need, and save it but never end up eating it! x
***** I usually just have it cold for lunch but sometimes if I make a soup or something I'll heat it up first :)
***** I think the key is to heat it up the way it tastes best. Some things go soggy in the microwave but tastes great if you pop them in the oven for a few moments.
"I'm being a bit cheeky and having some brown bread" brown bread is what I eat when I'm being healthy......
This is a general day.. Niomi you are life goals
You should definitely write a recipe book if you wanted to! It would do well 😊 I know I would enjoy it xx
Ella Victoria I really love your channel Ella!! I discovered it recently, and have been binge watching your videos haha xx
Me too
Aw thank you so much xx
I would so buy that
Ella Victoria Yes that would be great ! Honestly, if Niomi decided to do a recipe book, I would definitely buy it :)

I am a 16-year-old vegan from Germany and I LOOOOVE THOSE KINDS OF VIDEOS!
I need to stop watching videos like this when I'm hungry, I'm now dramatically draped across my bed starving to death :') Although I'm definitely feeling inspired to make something healthy for lunch!
Love these types of videos because me myself I eat healthy and love to get some ideas for different things to make :)
***** Me too girl! x x
I really love what you eat in a day videos! I've watched them more than once to get new ideas or recipes/ ingredients to try!! Thank you soo much for posting these!! Take care!
Niomi please make 1 of these mid week like you said! I'd love to see more! LOVE YOIUU!💗
Eating brown bread is not unhealthy ...
It is, actually. Much of the ‘brown’ bread you’ll find in the supermarket is simply just white bread with brown coloring, often caramel, added back into it.

But if you wanna go the fully healthy route, I'd just go with whole grain bread or something like that
Where I live we get our brown bread from the farm so it's definitely not white bread and unhealthy!
+99growlithe99 I can't believe companies would go this far to trick us into eating something we obviously don't want. I never knew there was a difference between whole grain bread and brown bread. I always thought brown was a more simpler way of saying it.
+Raquel Gil it's really not as good as you think it is, brown bread actually has so many hidden chemicals and shit in it
I wish I could be as healthy as you omg 😍
But chocolate and pizza exists 😂
BeautyByAbz I know is it bad that i was watching this with a bag or crisps and a chocolate bar 😁😁 plus pizzia is Bæ
BeautyByAbz LOL!
BeautyByAbz Me too! I feel like chocolate actually makes me happy that's why I can't stop!
BeautyByAbz So true ahahah
It would be super helpful if you put the recipes in the description or on a separate blog post? Just came back for the salsa recipe and it occurred to me! :-) x

I WISH I COULD EAT YOUR FOOD EVERYDAY! looks so good :)
Chelsi Stella and yes please continue doing these videos!! :)
Frozen grapes are so good! Do you have the deliciously ella cook book? If you don't you NEED to get it! All the recipes are really healthy and vegan. Do you know if you put a banana in the freezer and then blend it up it tastes like banana ice cream! It is so nice!
She does
Ok thanks
Banana ice cream is the best and it's super healthy compared to normal ice cream! All of Ella's recipes are awesome
Does Marcus eat as healthy as you? Do you think your eating habits have worn off on him since you have been together? Lovely video! :)
Marcus eats very healthy as well though
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS

you're so great!
Please continue making these videos!! All the videos of you showing us what you eat and how you make it have inspired me to be healthier with everything! Much love from Los Angeles
I fear that people are becomming influenced into completely avoiding sugar and salt from their diets because they think its poison. They are both extreme neccessities to the diet in moderate control. What salt is what allows your brain to send nervous impulses (so you can move your arms and legs) sugar is used in order for you to be able to respire. Everything, even fat is needed, you just have to make sure it's all balanced!
+Mila Anouska agreed :) just eat in moderation!
Tommyboy80808 thanks :)
It's good to avoid eating lots of refined sugar which doesn't do much for you but provide you with calories. Natural sugars in fruits and so on are good and essential for a balanced diet. But there's nothing wrong with having a treat once in a while haha :)
You need salt to easily sweat and cry
Salt is not needed in the body, sodium however is essential, sodium is naturally found in all fruit and veggies, there is no need to add granulated salt other than for taste. Sugar is completely necessary though, your body needs glucose and going low carb is not sustainable.
You may have already said this before, but where did you learn to cook? You always seem to be making such interesting and tasty food! I know you said you like to gather recipes, is that mainly where you get ideas from? & I've tried going vegan twice now and lasted a max of 3 days. It's so hard when everyone in my house isn't vegan & so it ends up costing more for my mum to get me ingredients which would be suitable for me to eat! Is anyone around 17 or younger who is vegan? If so do you have any tips?? - Wow this was a long comment!x
amelia pawlak I'm actually almost 21 now, so a bit over your age limit! But I started going veggie when I was living with my family in high school. Basically, it took a bunch of long talks with my mum about what it meant to be getting different groceries and cooking my own meals, plus there were all sorts of concerns she had. So talking with one or both parents is crucial. The other thing that helped me incredibly was that whenever my mum said she was going grocery shopping, I always just went along. It ended up being fun time with my mum, but it meant that along the way, I just threw foods I wanted to be eating into the cart. Lastly, I offered to make food for the entire family from time to time. This meant learning to cook meat too since they weren't vegan, or finding a good filling recipe they would like (such as a nice red curry with tons of veggies and rice). Hope this helps!
She usually reads it on a blog or somewhere or she makes it herself. As in make it herself she copies other recipes and makes it healthy
I'm 15 and I've been vegan for 9 months now. When I first started I made sure to look for vegan recipes online that tasted really good to make the transition easier. I recommend 'deliciouslyella' recipes and a vegan UA-cam channel called 'plantbasedjudy'. You don't need to eat complex dishes , just some potatoes and veggies for example fills you up and it's super easy to make. I live in a non vegan household and my family love whenever I make something vegan for them. I suggest you watching the documentaries 'earthlings' and 'the best speech ever by Gary yourofsky' because that will then give you reasons apart from health to go vegan. Also check out high carb vegans on Instagram and UA-cam because in my opinion it's one of the best vegan diets to follow! Good luck and I promise you going vegan will be one of the best decisions you make :)
Hey :)
I'm 14 and I've been vegan for about a year, I agree with the comment above. I go shopping with my mum to find vegan things and when I can't go with her I write a list of things to get, the products and the brands that I want (to make sure that it's all vegan). Finding a health food or vegan supermarket type shop in your area is always really helpful.
I recommend you watch the videos on the youtube channel 'Bite Sized Vegan', she has videos that are really informative and informational about veganism ^.^
Following plant based instagram accounts is a really good idea, and some other blogs (as well as the blogs listed above, which I love) that I like are 'This Rawsome Vegan Life' and 'Fragrant Vanilla Cake'.
I hope this helped? Good luck x
Love Daisies Plants contain the best sources of vitamins and minerals that humans can possible get! Becoming vegan is one of the healthiest decisions you can make , educate yourself more on the topic and your mum and hopefully one day you/ll decide to go vegan! :)
YAY YAY YAY this video will keep me away from pizza for at least a week :D
Theresa Blueberry hi 😂
Mish321 Hi Mish :)
I was like "waiting for Theresa blueberry's comment" and then: I directly saw you haha:D I don't know who you are but I will have a look at your channel now;)
hannah C hahaha that's awesome! 😂 Thank you so much :) x
Love ya! Idk why but I get excited to see your comments! Keep up the good work!
I would love it if you do these kind of video's on a regular basis! I also loved your Marbella vlog. It's just so relaxing whenever you vlog. I'm also wanting to start a more plant-based/semi-raw diet since wheat and gluten make me very bloated and give me weird cramps. I've been trying it out for a while and I really like this way of eating. It's also more fun to cook meals with loads of vegetables haha
Absolutely loved this - you are too cute! And it's so helpful to see very doable healthy meal ideas to help me be more creative and just get fresh ideas! I typed all of your dinner recipes into my phone as you were showing them so I can try them!
Aww Marcus in the background.
YEHET!!!
Where did you get your apple slicer from? Xx💘
Ikear
She's soo healthy and im here eating my mcdonalds with a double chin :)
+sahaj brar LOVE THIS LOL
I dont think I could ever be that healthy!
Hah, was looking for a comment like this.. I really agree with you!
OMG same 🍗👌🏽
June well you found it!
Zoe Sherlock why not? :)
Petra Cool i just like sugar way too much lol
I loved this video Niomi! I've been vegan and trying to eat healthy for the past 3 years and it's sometimes it's hard to figure out what to eat. A lot of times the recipes or food ideas I find online are so time consuming I can never do them on my normal busy schedule, so these easy ideas were so refreshing, and also so inspiring to come from a youtuber I watch already for your beauty and style. So thank you so much, and I hope you do more of these!
Please do this each week! I've been a vegetarian for 5 weeks now and need some more inspiration! Xxx
Pinterest! Trust me, coming from a vegetarian, I find this app so easy. Just look up "vegetarian recipes" or whatever and there are loads and loads :) x
you should bring out a cool book you and marcus like your both so healthy and the food looks amazing!!!!!
Millie Dyson cook book *
+Millie Dyson That would be sooooo amazing!
I hate veggies but somehow you make them look delicious niomi haha
***** I feel the exact same :)
S A M E
I love this sort of vlog! The dinner especially looked amazing and frozen grapes are defiantly one of my favorite treats.
That dinner looked amazing! Really interesting video. I'd love for you to bring out a whole book of your recipes x
This made me so so hungry 😁😂💕📷
I feel very guilty at the moment as I'm watching this eating chocolate 😂 I am now going to go and work out
X
I make little videos and it would be amazing if anyone could check them out 🎬x
Cesca May Well chocolate comes from a plant so it could be a salad! LOL gonnna check out your channel! I have one too, if you wanted to check it out! xx
I don't agree with you describing eating a teeny tiny slice of brown bread as "cheeky". Your diet is immensely healthy and virtually carbohydrate free so that amount of bread is hardly cheeky in any way. We need some form of carbohydrate to survive and perceiving that food group, one of the healthier options in the food group as well, isn't delivering a good message to young people.
Fruits and veggies have carbs!
+Kerry D McCall so eating healthily is a bad message to young people...
+Kerry D McCall bread spikes your blood sugar, so that's why some people avoid it for health reasons.
+Kerry D McCall also, she ate carbs all day long...
+Kerry D McCall her diet apart from the protein shake was literally all carbs...
The beet soup may have utilized golden beets which would explain the non red colour :)
Frozen blueberries are so so nice!!! I've never had frozen grapes but the blueberries are just like ice cream! I have them for my snacks a lot! I'm going to try the grapes soon! I love how healthy you are and I'm the same as you on that I love sweat potatoes! Ive gotten a lot of ideas from this video!
I loved that you did this video vlog style!! I think Marcus's vlogs are so funny and I think it's awesome you did it too!!
I'm actually so jealous of all the food you eat! I wish I could be that healthy, I don't have the money to buy the food and my family aren't interested in this sort of food ahah. One day I'll manage to persuade them I'm sure!
I dont know if she eats not much or I eat too much.
She doesn't eat enough (in my opinion)
Jana haha
she eats enough calories I think. if you read a bit about food you'll know that she ate a lot of good carbs, fibre and protein. vegan diet isn't too hight on protein this they need to substitute with grains, nuts and lemingous veggies. if you tried food like this your know how full yet not stuffed you'd feel. it's great. I eat like that.
yes but if you take a look at what "that vegan couple" for example, eats then this doesn't seem like enough food on a vegan diet. When you're vegan you're supposed to eat more than the average meat, eggs and dairy eater.
I suppose that maybe you're right, but the calorie intake depends on age, body fat and acitivity. If you underway, your body starts storing fat and she doesn't look like she's got any on. I eat about that much but I'm 10 years older than her and I'd say it's defo enough and I'm size 6-8. At least for me. She may have faster metabolism and maybe should have more but it works for her.
Please make more of this kind of video. I eat a vegan diet and it's always nice to find ideas for dinner.
I love that kind of videos niomi :) please make them every week. Your lifestyle is so inspiring to me! ❤️
I really loved watching this video, really inspiring! I would absolutely love for you to make this a regular thing! I have been trying to live a healthier life and it just helps so much to see how a real person eats, rather than just reading information from the internet.
You went out for lunch, then came home and said 'just got back it's time for lunch'
did you steal the bowl of soup? i'm so confused lol
Holly Walker Oh I really didn't make that clear! I went to the place to order lunch to bring home with me :)
Holly Walker LOL i was confused by that too! x
Ohhh😂😂😂 I was so confused
Holly Walker I'm just imagining Niomi running away with a bowl of soup and giggling xD
CountingTheDaisies This has had me in a fit of giggles now, too. :)
how can you eat so little? :( I'd be starving with these quantities lol
The smoothies have a lot of carbs! It may not look much but it should keep you full.
A lot of carbs? 100-300 calories aren't that much carbs at all. Besides, carbs don't really keep you full unless they have a lot of fiber too. Protein is usually the one who keeps someone full.
How is that so little? You must eat big servings
umessinwithme i thought i was the only one who thinks it was WAY too fucking little.
Ashley Williams it is little. i bet she eats like round 1500 kcal's a day which by the way if you check the guide for daily recommended intake for adults, it suggests eating between 2200-2500 or something. So no, assuming that it's little doesn't mean she/i eat big servings. More like, NORMAL servings
I didn't know Niomi was a vegan! I love her even more now!
You're really good at these sort of videos! Really clear and detailed about how you made each meal, definitely make more food videos! :)
I love your food videos. Especially like this where it's just every day kind of things not just "special treats"
*Niomi being cheeky* has some brown bred
*Me being cheeky* has three chocolate bars, ice cream and oreo bars.....
Thank you, was feeling like a freak, seeing how little she eats!
Maybe the beetroot soup was yellow beetroot instead of a red one
definitely, golden beetroots are actually pretty popular, it's weird she hasn't heard about them
Jak Fletcher I hadn't thought of that you must be right! Never thought of a beetroot soup to be made from golden beetroots
Niomi! You're so adorable, I really enjoyed watching this!
Love this! Frozen grapes ^o^ Please tell my what you thought of them, I love them ^o^
EvaGrace they were soo tasty! I know they're only grapes and it's a weird thing to get excited about but they really do taste great! x
Niomi Smart They really do! I know right! I may be a little obsessed! :D Thank you so much for replying, you're my idol x
Please do more of these, you are so creative with your meals!!!
I literally love all your healthy food and workout videos! It makes me actually want to try and live a healthier life so thank you and I would love to see more videos like this in the future
I wish I was as healthy as you;)
Anna McKay one step at a time, but it is a lot of fun when you get the hang of it :D
Ikr goals
You can +Anna McKay it's just hard to control the temptation to eat a chocolate bar now and then...
Hey a lot of vegans have chocolate nice-cream for breakfast all the time... I swear it's the best thing I've ever had and its healthy 😂
Oh! I guess i should try that !!!!! +Haley Purple
Inspo!
:)
Is it possible to eat like Niomi and not break the bank?
maybe not :( but it's definitely possible to eat plant based with a very small budget!!!
thanks for the reply. :) i've noticed (since I now work part-time at a grocery store) that veggies aren't too expensive but the price of fruit is crazy. :/
It totally is a possibility! Plantbased foods are some of the cheapest on the planet . For example a bag of rice may cost you about £1.00 and it can last for several meals. Potatoes , fruit, veggies, oats as well can all be super cheap if you just find the right deals. You don't have to spend a lot of money to get healthy :)
Rachael Ditto I know the feeling! maybe try a farmers market? they often have great deals way better than the store!
I used to use grocery money on all the junky foods like packaged pasta, crisps bags and chocolate bars, now all that money goes on veggies. When ever I spend good money on veggies, I just tank god im not spending it on some other foods! (point being junky foods will cost the same if not more)
Yay loved this video!! So happy you made a food diary! All your food looks so yummy. Can't wait to try out dinner tomorrow!
I would LOVE to see these videos every week, or however often you can put them up. I also have a plant based diet, but you're a bit healthier than me (haha), so just seeing what you eat gives me lots of ideas and inspo - out of all the youtuber/bloggers - I end up recreating your recipes the most! Gonna give that quinoa and veg a go tomorrow assuming we have some left over :)
How can she say at 10:23 that there was SO MUCH on the plate? I mean, I'm from Spain, here we have Mediterranean diet and I would say that dinner was healthy but not enough oh my god
Marta510 it's about the size I normally eat. Maybe a bit less. But I was in exchange in Spain for a summer and you Spaniards eat so much 😂 this is coming from an American 😂
My definition of cheeky doesn't include brown bread
"Being a bit cheeky and having some brown bread" Gurl 1 slice of brown bread is me being healthy..
Vegans don't eat wheat, that's why it's a bit cheeky
@@ellecullen3986 vegans can eat wheat what are you on about
Please do these kinds of Videos more often. Loved this one and I loved that you showed how to make everything. Really helps, thank you!
Yess I love it Niomi, please keep doing stuff like this! Your food videos are my favourite ones of yours
i'v had three chocolate bars and a whole pizza in the past hour. I need to reevaluate my life.
sorry but I can't get excited over a vegetable
IHeartCupCakes15 then why watch a vlog about the way naomi eats? You knew it would be mostly vegetables.....
IHeartCupCakes15 Sucks to be you!
1:25 Marcus' hair
Weekly videos like this pleeeeeeeease! It is sooooo nice to finally get ideas for plant-based foods I can eat that are REALISTIC and don't cost my life savings to buy at the supermarket
You're my favourite UA-camr Niomi, I really love you xx Thank you for putting this video together, I wouldn't know how to eat clean if it weren't for you ❤️
