I like that you’re just a normal person and not super dieter. “Perfect” vegan type
same. she's the only vegan UA-camr I watch now.
Ya know, no matter what people say about you, you are probably one of the most helpful vegan UA-camrs I know of. I am not a vegan, but I love everything to do with food and health, so I will watch videos like yours to become inspired and to get informed. I watch your channel for the content. I’ve never met you in my life so I don’t know of your character, but nobody is perfect and I will continue to watch you because your videos are good 👍🏾
No intention to have children but watching and commenting for the UA-cam algorithm
I’m 33 weeks! Same here girl, I feel ready to have my body back. Thank you for the realistic goals 🤍
@@MdoubleHBxx do you know the definition of insanity? It's what you you're doing by repeatedly posting this nonsense.
Pregnancy was rough for me in general, but that first trimester I lived on PBJ and baked potatoes. The end was miserable and I drowned my sorrow in ice cream. Thanks for giving voice to those of us who are not big fans of the journey to baby.
Freele is coming after this video, I can sense her coming…
Exactly with all that bunker food...🤣🤣
@@jenniferjuneau7329 "very war time food, lacking in those sugars like glucose and fructose that your body craves and needs" evil chuckle
@@plantahari "if you wanna thrive in life just buy my books!!!" *Proceeds to show pictures of her naked butt*
Haha omg like a minute into the video I thought the same thing. She will be totally outraged with all the lamp oil and fat and the drugs like coffee and whatnot
As soon as she said "I love fruit, I've been eating so much fruit" I was like oh no freelee is going to make a video on this 😆
The stuff that UV is eating is absolutely helping her maintain bright vibrant skin, she looks stunningly beautiful.
Yeah, she looks good just generally, but she looks even better when she had a bun in the oven.
@@MdoubleHBxx agree(!) Filling in your eyebrows and putting some mascara on really does wonders, doesn't it. What's unfortunate, is you wasting your time copying and pasting the same comments on here
@@MdoubleHBxx children should not be fed full raw. (Sure raw breast milk as babies and shit.)
Because you need to eat more volume to get the calories. Children have small tummies but need loads of nutrients to grow. So cooked food is vital. Also makes certain stuff less of a choking hazard.
Feeding cooked food is not child abuse. Its not like every kid that has survived pre grocery stores was abused simply by being fed.
@@MdoubleHBxx I don't think you've grasped the meaning of insanity x
@@MdoubleHBxx yeah, feeding your kid a bowl of vegan mac and cheese is so much worse than, say, locking him in a closet or pushing him down the stairs. Really effective proselytizing you're doing.
Thanks to your popcorn recipe, I came up with a similar one which has cheese flavour nutritional yeast (sold in my country), canola oil (here the taste is so much different), salt and smoked merken, which is a Chilean mix of regional chiles and coriander seeds. Its amazing
I was thinking.. you could make more videos about the food your family is growing even if you’re not the person who maintains the garden. With your partner’s consent and consideration of your kids, it might be a cool mini series on the topic of growing your own food. I myself am considering growing a peach tree from seed in my backyard and I am contemplating filming the experience.
Good luck with that. Most fruit trees are grafted. The results of the actual tree shape may not be great.
There are also places where you can get single saplings from though.
Make sure they are self pollinating. Else you will have no fruit.
❤️ enjoyed this! Wishing you a smooth delivery
OMG "Lamp Oil" I'm dying😂😂😂
I love how honest you are.
"I mean, I like Captain Crunch too, but I try not to buy it." Same here. It sustained me many a late night essay, too busy to bother with "real food" in college. 😂
@@MdoubleHBxx You have got to stop
As a Bulgarian, I have also become an expert sunflower seed eater. The method I've perfected is a crack between the teeth and acrobatic tongue extraction of the seed. The dry piles of shells grow quickly on summer afternoons chatting with with friends and family.
This video was just so refreshing... Thank you!
If you have a bitter walnut, it most likely it has gone rancid. Walnuts are a mild and have a sweet and nutty aroma!
Depends. Some people are highly sensitive to bitter flavors due to genetics (sort of like the cilantro soap flavor gene). I'm one of those people! Lots of food that doesn't taste bitter to others can taste inedible-y bitter to me. Coffee, dark chocolate, whiskey, dark leafy greens, some nuts, etc.
Whereas my husband might taste some bitterness in compliment to other flavors, those things will taste like nothing but bitterness to me.
Here to support my favourite UA-camr ❤️
Thank you for this content. I had my first baby in between your two kids and now pregnant as the same time as you (about as far along). So it's really nice to have those videos to get ideas and hear from someone else at the same stage. It's definitely useful so thanks!
The wall paper looks like fancy covid
Never comment but omg 😭 you drinking the same milk as me made me feel so validated. 💞 lots of love!
ive recently started adding unflavoured pea protein to tofu scrambles and lovin it when i dont want a smoothie, pretty sure i can't tell the difference but i haven't done a side by side
@@MdoubleHBxx awesome! you've convinced me! thank you, MdoubleHB!
It seems like the main external determinant of how pregnancy will go is probably stress, not diet.
“Lamp oil” will never not be funny
The Morningstar popcorn chick'n is my favorite!
It’s not the sugar in regular peanut butter for me, it’s the hydrogenated fat I’d rather skip. I always pair it with jam or something for that touch of sweetness!
also the pea lasagna plates from the brand you got the fettuccine from is really good!
My third pregnancy is when everything changed for me, lots more pain and harder, longer time pushing.
Elaborate girl. I am on my 3rd pregnancy too.
You're better than me 😭 I'm still pregnant but about to give birth and my entire pregnancy I just ate Oreo cereal, KIND ice cream, canned fruits and weirdly a ton of lentils and tofu straight out of the package. Thank God for prenatals is all I'm saying because my cravings caused me to eat a ton of not that great stuff.
It's nice to know that I'm not alone in thinking that pregnancy is just not fun at all. I have so many women tell me how they just loved being pregnant so much, and I'm just so confused. Did they not experience morning sickness or pain? Are they unicorns?
@@MdoubleHBxx probably not.
@@LocaChoca My best friend just had her first. She suffered quite a bit from fatigue, sciatic nerve pain, and more and still loved/enjoyed being pregnant. It seems wild to me, but "easy pregnancy" isn't necessarily the reason for such women. I guess some women have a certain disposition about it.
Thanks for sharing! ✨🔆🧡
Please do What my toddler ate in a day vids. I have an 18mo and struggle to find new things to feed her that are easy and aren't too messy (me hubby eat a lot of stews :/).
I love the silk soy milk! i also love the whole foods brand
I don’t get the “regular “ pb because of the palm oil.
for vitamin e: wheat germ in my oats! a savory sunbutter sauce on rice or quinoa! and almond butter on everything!
if you have a decent food processor or blender, throw in tamari almonds. Honestly, the best nut butter ever!
Oh dear... wait until freelee comes across this one. All of the good things you just mentioned about fruit is going to me mercilessly used as frugivore ammunition.
I find unsweetened peanut butter very sweet but generally avoid any added sugar not because I want to eat ultra clean but I noticed my running pace worsens awfully days after eating anything with sugar.
i can already see freelee making a video on this claiming you’re unsure about if you’re protecting the health of your child and saying your poisoning them
Sounds a lot like what I was eating during pregnancy, now our baby is 5 months and it’s similar still. 1 cup of coffee in the morning, no mylk. No fruit snacks, but chocolate. Here in Finland oil seeds are to be avoided, but I have small amounts. Have been avoiding especially ground flax seeds since I read about the hydrogen cyanide poisoning risk, but now read that up to 1tbs/day prepared with water would be ok, so maybe it can re-enter our morning porridge. Is heavy metals in seeds something that is talked about in the US?
I have not heard about heavy metal warnings for food, except rice.
I’ve just had my first baby on Friday,13th and life couldn’t be better💕. All the best for you and your family ❤️
Idk what video it was but I remember once you said you would never show even your bump - what made you change your mind about it?
I love you channel.
Someone need to be sayng ' Processed food can be in a healphy diet'
Do you ever use wheat germ in your smoothies?
Genuine question, when you buy mock meats from the grocery outlets, do you think you are still showing demand for that product? Aren’t grocery outlets basically products that aren’t selling the main store being sold to a discount store? I assume the first line store won’t keep stocking those products if they don’t sell. Just a thought.
They do keep track I guess. And it's still better than having it be thrown away.
Food is expensive, and it keeps getting more expensive. She wants to feed her family. No hate on getting the same food for cheaper.
Yeah, not hating at all. Grocery stores have very slim margins, why would they make them even slimmer by stocking product that they resale to discount sellers? Maybe there are other factors at play but to me it seems like not buying from the first line stores directly could lead to manufactures discontinuing products due to perceived low demand.
I’m not saying it’s all on Swayze either but I’m just wondering if it’s something she knows about.
No one is begrudging her getting a discount on food, feeding her family, and not wasting. But supply and demand is a real business strategy so yeah…
Lamp oil! Why do I feel like that’s a little jab at the bunker food term by you know who… 😂😂😂
natures plus is my favorite plain pea and quinoa protein powder , organic , Hexane free , tested ..affordable
no yuckie taste .oh and yes, cheap lol
Pretty sure you said "just do the best you can" at least three times--that's as much nuance as anyone should need.
Yes the Silk tasted just like you described it was horrible I had to go back to oatmilk
Yeah those 6 weeks of nausea you had - imagine that for 36 weeks 😅 I really hated pregnancy with all my heart 🙈
I feel you since I 🤢until the very last day of my pregnancy. Our baby girl is worth it,though :)
Same here, same here
Same!
I love the thumbnail. So cute
Haha, always entertaining. Your taste is so funny (to me) I think the one thing we fully agree on is Silk soy milk. 😉 All the best to you and baby#3
Even new air popcorn makers done have an on switch! Just plug in and boom it’s poppin 🥴
I wish I had some sour patch kids…don’t know if I could polish off a family sized one all on my own though. I would have that bag for a month at least. I literally can’t get enough of those just eggs they are so good (prepared ones not the liquid egg) it’s kind of scary how much they taste like eggs….
I enjoy peanut butter on pitted dates
I ate dates the last couple weeks in my pregnancy with my boy and it helped with labor and delivery and postpartum period
I don't mean to overstep, but did you continue to take your antidepressants? And if you stoped, how did it affect you? I am thinking of having my eggs frozen for a time when I might want a child and am in a better place to pause my medication.
This is something that really you should discuss with your doctor and or psychiatrist.
You can always freeze your eggs.
But you have to talk about your risks and stuff.
People get naturally pregnant at 40 and all as well. The main concern if you are still ovulating, besides it being a bit more difficult to become pregnant of course, is that you yourself are at higher risk of complications from pregnancy.
@@dutchik5107 they said, that it is a personal choice. They don't recommend to take them during pregnancy, but having a mental breakdown during pregnancy might just be as harmful.
I would highly recommend going to a woman's health + psychiatry specialist if you're able. Most regular doctors and psychiatrist are very hesitant to prescribe drugs during pregnancy, as it's such a touchy time. Unfortunately, the general recommendations tend to be extremely cautious ("better safe than sorry", at the expense of mom's health, leaving many people undertreated or feeling very worried and guilty if they do need to keep taking their medicine).
However, based on lots of data, there's definitely more drugs that are quite safe to use during pregnancy if needed than we think, including a few anti depressant or anxiety medications. Many people take antidepressants, and many of them go through pregnancy. It's also important to remember that not treating depression during a pregnancy can have negative effects as well - which can help put the risks associated with some of the most recommended drugs into perspective.
Please note that my comment is based on specialist recommendations from Germany/Switzerland for a particular pregnancy and may not apply to others.
Do discuss with a specialist to find out if there's an option that would be right for your particular situation before making a decision.
Wishing you all the best on your mental health and family your journey!
A specialist could provide you with specific information on the data available for particular drugs, including specific risks of side effects and the way they were managed (more regular checkups during pregnancy, or specialist clinic for birth in case of complication, etc).
This can be very helpful in making a decision.
Lamp oil!! 😂😂😂
😂😂😂!
ahhh your story about soymilk made me remember the time i thought "hey i drink so much soymilk, i should make it myself"
never again.
it was.. bean juice.
I love oatly in coffee but since you’re a protein girl maybe give califia oat protein a shot?
I have never understood the demonization of peanut butter. It has barely any sugar in it.
My first trimester I loved green apples and green grapes MMMMMMM!!!
I'm surprised that you were even able to find Silk soy milk! It's been sold out of every store in my area for months. I've had to order from Whole Foods, use protein-fortified flax (which I've lost the taste for), or reverted back to almond milk 😞
The same in San Diego. It’s been on and off.
Oh no! I hate that for you guys. We haven’t had a shortage here in south Florida 🤷🏼♀️
What’s choline for ??
I love the Eden brand soy milk.
I'm approaching the end of my first trimester and the idea of artificial wombs sounds amazing to me 😂
Can you do a video on whether are not not humans are omnivores or frugívoros
"lamp oil" hahahhahaha
I appreciate your honesty. Pregnancy isn't fun for all and that's the damn truth.
Would love to see an "artificial womb" video whenever you have the time!
Oh no freelee made a response lol
Yeah and it's shiiiiiiiit. I kind of understand now why a patreon said she should not respond because there is no point with freelee and I didn't want to believe it but oh my lord her respond is soooooo ridiculous. She showed like 30 seconds of UV video and like made a whole ass propaganda video. It's so obvious how she tried to make her look bad and only could accomplish that with showing 30 seconds. It's just annoying. And she deletes comments anyway so there is no point in even mention that UVs video starts with an apologie.
@@auroras.2015 freelee is well bananas
Already?!? WTF...
She spent the ENTIRE video responding to a split second clip. Her desperation is fucking cringe!!
All the photos were very helpful. Also: who knew that you grind up your nutritional yeast?? Not me. And the salt. I've been using both on popcorn because of you and wondering what you do about how all of it just goes to the bottom of the bowl. The secret is finally revealed. One last note, that's a lot of vitamin D that you take. I was taking a lot and my D went high in my blood work. I read up on it and too much D can be as bad as not enough. I know you don't like getting blood work done but have you had a D level checked?
Good point about the popcorn toppings! Fine powder is how the movie theater does it.
Mayo clinic writes 60 000 iu for months as causing vitamin D toxicity.
I’m so heartbroken hearing about the soy milk 😭 that’s why I buy the silk brand too!
I love pregnancy videos! 🤗
Damn I could fuck up some of those fruit snacks.
Freelee made another vid on her lol
Freelee cheering at all the fruit right at the beginning!! ☺☺☺
Ellen does mention supplements in her membership videos. This is just my opinion, but I think she still has some fear of criticism that could possibly be from the way vegan UA-camrs were in the 2013/2014 era. I noticed at that time (again just my opinion) that there was a lot comparison, and I think it lead to self hate or feeling inadequate as a vegan UA-camr. I’ve noticed this in the way she talks about herself as a mother. One time Ellen said she felt bad/inadequate for not making as many salads and veggies as she had more kids and had less time than she did with just Elvis or Sandy. This was heart breaking to hear because it’s so sad to me that Ellen feels like she has to worry about her kid having a popsicle or Hawaiian shaved ice (I think that was the example) even though they were vegan. To be fair she said she would never deny her children those things because she wants them to have positive associations surrounding food. She also mentioned pre-made granola bars as being something she felt bad about, but they are absolutely still healthy so I could tell there were some unresolved conflicting ideologies. Then I think about the video Freelee made where she called Ellen’s homemade sourdough bread “wartime food” 🙄 Ellen wouldn’t even cook her tomatoes for the bread in a little teaspoon of olive oil to keep them from sticking to the pan. I totally get that if you have a platform you should use it to say what’s important and what’s supported by evidence. Especially if it’s related to health and pregnancy. I think Ellen is now very hyper aware of the criticisms that she isn’t vegan enough, instead of being aware of the kind of information you put out. I just think it may not be obvious from her normal content how hard on herself she is and her internal struggles with always wanting to do more or be better. I love supporting and watching both of you though. I find value in both of your content. Just thought I’d offer up another perspective 🙂
Freelee just came out with a reaction video stating you body shamed her. She just can't let things go. She critizes everyone. Good food you eat. I just had a black bean burger.
Homemade soy milk tastes like real milk (slightly sweet). So just know proper soy milk should not taste like beans
Omg were almost the same weeks pregnant! I'm 36 right now, my first pregnancy was pretty bad with nausea. I couldn't get out of bed for the first three months and lived on veggie broth and soda crackers, it was pretty bleak. This time around was much easier
The ritual prenatals don't cause nausea.
🙂
I need to get into vitamins.
Almost no matter who you are I agree lol. I now take 3 vitamins daily and I have never felt better in my life, generally. If you have any medical issues it can be great to look into what may help to supplement and speak to your doctor and get blood work done.
I am one of those people who have difficulty absorbing B12, I was very deficient once and I got very sick, so I have to take methylcobalamin now and my levels are good lately, at least low-normal. I added a multivitamin and I think it helps me absorb nutrition generally. I have avoided B12 injections yay!
Now I have also added magnesium 250mg, I read that 400 is effective for migraines but I thought that was probably excessive if I ate more food with magnesium too, they and their associated dizziness have never felt better, my fatigue, everything. Nothing this easy has given me this much improvement.
Also important to find good brands, good stores (in my experience CVS has excellent sales, including bogo and you can stock up for basically nothing!) and be open to your doctor so you aren't on anything you shouldn't be. I take a centrum multi (doesn't taste bad), usually get sundown naturals and nature made. I do think brand is important because it needs to be quality.
👍👍👍
Wait, aren't mock meats pretty unhealthy? Why recommend it for pregnancy? Ps. All the best for the baby! 💙
Yes they are
Healthy?! Horror.
tiny baby is now toddler and new baby is tiny baby who is toddler gonna become? 🤣
I haven't even watched the video yet, but from the thumbnail alone freelee will probably have an heart attack because you dare to focus on protein while pregnant. THATS NOT NATURAL!!1!!11!
(around) 04:30 LOL Here comes to the confirmation bias that fruitarian is the best for humans. The pregnant lady wants fruit! Lol
I’m sorry but you’re wrong!
Avocado toast is NOT gross ✌️
I’d love a video on abortion!
10:12 That sounds surprisingly kinky :-)
So why get pregnant in the first place???
I think pregnancy is creepy and scary
I'm not vegan, and I'm really surprised at how incredibly similar my diet is to yours. I'm not pregnant, but my diet usually lacks enough Coline and DHA, so I supplement, Silk unsweetened soymilk is the bomb, I use flaxseeds and hemp for my usual breakfast of cereal or oatmeals, whole wheat bagels, lentil and bean with veggies in my soups, but I also regularly eat a lot of tuna and grilled fish, chicken pot stickers, and Mac and cheese. 😅😅
lol i hate non-natural peanut butter so much, it’s soo gross to me
I'll eat "regular" in a pinch, I really prefer the taste and texture of natural pb.
You should never use olive oil for frying/sauteing. it's got a really low smoke point. the canola oil you mentioned earlier is perfect for using to cook with. Olive oil shouldn't be heated, it's perfect for salad dressings or marinades.
I guess I'm in the early squad.
uh, life cereal, cap'n crunch... none of those are vegan....
I've got like a crazy idea: what if, I don't know, we actually used non-frozen fruits and vegetables and no ice-cubes in smoothies? Do you think maybe it would not be that cold that way?😁😁
so just lukewarm fruit mush?
@@amyhall2998 Actually yeah? I guess I love lukewarm fruit mush! (I am only gonna call it that from now on.)
Lamp oil 🤣☠️
Lamp oil. 😝
Girl, I can't with all those food videos. You're too smart not to give me more videos in which you analyze non-edible stuff. Like response videos or whatever. Je souis begging you.
@Unnatural Vegan I have a quick question for you...
Do you consume and/or actively promote the consumption of any of the following:
apples, cranberries, melons, almonds, broccoli, watermelons, pumpkins, squashes, zucchinis, lentils, tomatoes, strawberries, mangos, avocados, plums, peaches, apricots, pomegranates, pears, blackberries, raspberries, grapes, peanuts, macadamia nuts, mustard seeds, coconuts, soybeans, or coffee?
she mentioned more than a couple of these foods in the video. why?
She said in the video that she eats a lot of apples. We know she drinks soy milk with coffee every day. Yes, she eats those foods. lol. Why do you ask?
@@MissCarlyJoy @snow
What is your stance on the needless rape, murder, torture, and enslavement of domesticated livestock...and would you actively support an industry that facilitates the rape, murder, torture, exploitation, and enslavement of billions upon billions of same said livestock?
@@BeardedDevil-cn9tw can you please explain how eating apples support animal torture? Or maybe just tell us which foods don't do this? I'm legitimately confused
I grow several kinds of berries and the most harm I do to animals is put netting around the berry bushes to keep the birds from eating them
