Decision fatigue is real! I also find that when I’m consistently avoiding processed foods I’m not constantly thinking about food. 🙏✨
Sugar and flour products also make me totally food obsessed also…..to the point of craziness! No sugar, or flour which is actually higher in the glycemic index, and I am calm and fine and normal.
I've lost 18 lbs in 3 months on this way of eating. 5 more to go! Thank you!!
When I reheat potatoes (in the microwave) I drizzle a little water over them and that restores their moisture. I get hiccups if they are too dry. Potatoes for the win. ☺️🍠🥔
great tip!
You need to drink two glasses of water before you eat. Water is necessary for digestion.
I’m down 20 lbs since May, this way of eating has been such a blessing for me! Calorie density makes so much sense and I’ll never look back. Thank you Chelsea!!!
May I ask your age because it’s a bit harder when one gets a bit older…
I’m not sure if you’re if you’re referring to myself or Chelsea but I’m 43.
You are helping me, more than anyone else, to eat only whole foods.... Consistency is a big problem.
Aww I am so happy to hear this! Glad I can help!
I'm an new to WFPB. I appreciate your insights as well as your recommendation of resources. You take a ton of confusion and anxiety out the process. Thank you
I am so so so so so so so happy there is now a kiwi I can learn from in the WFPB weight-loss world. Love your down to earth style and the results you get! Well done on the reset.
I have done this in the past and it might be time to do it again for the same reasons that you set out. What I found when I did it, is that when I began to expand to other foods once the reset was over, I was able to really TASTE the food and be satisfied quicker with my meals. Green peas tasted divine, oranges and grapes tasted like candy! Corn suddenly became something that I found tasty because I could appreciate that it's just a little bit sweet. For me anyway, the reset really did exactly that. It reset my taste buds.
So many people have had this experience! One of the many reasons to give it a try!
If it reset your taste buds why would you need to do it again?
@@cheezheadz3928 there are many reasons to do it not just resetting your taste buds.
@@novembahI mean if your doing it to lose weight it's a fairly extreme way to go about it lol
So happy I found a woman like you on starch who hits the gym. So inspiring. Love your channel. Thanks for sharing with us.
Great video and awesome idea. What a great plan to get us refocused especially during and in between the holidays. Thanks for sharing.
Your a great teacher, motivater, and example. Thank you!
Well said, it's about establishing core habits that you want to move forward. Exactly!
Good info! Thanks for sharing, Chels!
Thanks! So Lovely! I did this about 30 years ago! It really worked. Thanks for reminding:)
Wow! What a great video. I’m sure this took a lot of time so much great information. Thank you so much as always for informational and entertaining videos.
Girl, you looked lean to begin with and you look lean now. I love the way you relate it to healthy eating habits and being the best you. I so appreciate the information and the way you present it with facts but yet laid back enough anyone can relate to.
Loved this video! Thank you and HI from Brazil!
Kudos to your commitment !!!!!!
Hi Chels ,i have looked a few of your videos and been loving them. You have help me to re start eating plant base and now i Will be trying the potato reset .il has changed my life a lot. I have experiance multibles changes in my body so i am quit satisfied thank you so mutch and i will continu watching you on UA-cam. Sorie for my english because i am french mostly
I mostly did this because I have acne, which has been bothering me for years. I found that eating sweet potatoes with non-starchy veggies helps me a lot, especially with my acne. I also lost some weight and did not binge as much when I craved sweets, but I also find that eating sweet potatoes with tahini is satisfying and filling.
Watching this while pregnant and overweight is not ideal 😅 I will come back in one year.
I've been high protein for LONG Time with no results. However, earlier this year I became very ill for couple of weeks and could only hold down potatoes. I ate them for breakfast, lunch and dinner and that was the only time I saw the scale move. I absolutely love potatos of every kind so this would be much easier on me than the freaking Keto that will eventually prove unsafe due to metabolic syndrome it's been proven to cause.
I've never know anyone who lost weight doing high protein. Moderate protein, vegetables (non starchy), and high fat-yes!
With crazy meat prices in the US right now I'm looking at exploring other options.
@@HB-bc5po Seriously too. I feel like we're headed into potato and rice stage of this economy 😢
@@StompMom5 yes
Great 👌 you explain yourself so well and I find your videos refreshing and fun!!! Keep up the fantastic work!!!
Love the sweet potato toast hack! Great meal ideas in this video
Excellent video Chelsea Mae and potatoes are my favourite vegetables after greens. Sweet potatoes technically aren't potatoes because potatoes are part of the Nightshade family of plants but Sweet potatoes are in the Bindweed family of plants. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕Chelsea Mae. Keep safe and well.
Chels! It's Vegemite in Oz, never Marmite! Aargh. I have just started a potato reset to diminish the significance of food in everyday life. I'm not a fan of sweet potato so am using mostly kestrel potatoes. I steam a large batch in the instant pot then dice without cutting through the bottom. I smoosh them down and cover with some salt and pepper, parsley, green onion and the juice of half a lemon. It's delish, but super easy and uncomplicated. So I go.....
I did it for five days and it was amazing. It got me back into the habit of having simple meals and since the reset I start every day with a big sweet potato topped with cinnamon.
cinnamon eh? interesting
@@dimitrisskar4174 yes so good if you want mash it,add salt pepper,little bit of butter and cinnamon. So good!
@@highlyfavoredMG I'll take your words into consideration chief!
@@dimitrisskar4174 what about pumpkin pie spice 😮
@@des8336 now that's something i haven't heard of lol
OMG how happy am I that you got me to make potato toast? 😮. It’s such a fabulous alternative to bread (which I am trying to limit). I subbed wraps but then saw this video. A natural food vehicle for meals. Such a simple idea but I’ve never thought of it before!!! I love you!
Great motivation!! Thank you 🥳
I found the "smashed" potatoe topped with tomatoes, etc, really interesting. I'm gonna try it! Looks delish.
Thank you for another great video Chelsea. Thinking this will be a great way to kick off the mew year.
you must keep me and the group posted on how you go!
Thanks so much Chelsea, you've inspired me to replace some of my regular food items with potatoes!!
Love this. Finishing an oat-based Mary's Mini tomorrow, then will do 10-day MM with rice, then 10 days with potatoes. Looking forward to the potatoes!!
You have blown my mind 🤯. The potato IS the toast! Genius! This is going to happen at my house 💕💕💕.
Omg this is sooooo helpful! Im really trying to do a reset as well and lose the baby weight. The sweet potato toast idea is phenomenal!!!!! Looks amazing thanks so much for sharing
This diet is called the starch solution by Dr. John McDougall. You eat a starch and some no starchy vegetables. I lost 25 lbs and I lose about 2 lbs every week.
How could anyone stick to this diet ????
@@kevinwilson3337Anyone can, especially you. Why don’t you read Dr. McDougall’s book The Starch Solution and give it a try? What do you have to lose?
What kind of seasoning?
It's called the creators diet. U will gain health from the earth
@@kevinwilson3337 It's jot just potatoes. You can still have rice, fruit, non-starchy veg, fruit, lentils, beans, peas. Less limiting than most diets... Just no fats and oils
I probably only made sweet potatoes 2 times in my life because around here we mostly eat normal potatoes. I gave them another chance after watching your videos and I just can't believe it - my sweet potatoes caramelized and my baking sheet was covered in some sort of caramel I couldn't believe how goooddd they were tasting! perfectly baked thanks to you, I guess I never knew how to make them xD no oil or anything else. I almost cried while eating them. Not that they only taste sweet they also have a nice smoked aroma and they also remind me of pumpkin pie. unbelievable how simple this is. and no oil! What a dream hahaha. THANK YOU! You changed everything for me. Your videos are so eye opening. I love the way you talk and explain things and you have a nice voice :) And I love the dynamic of your family. You guys are awesome
Thank you dear!
There is sweet potato pie. You’d love it
Hi Chelsea I really like your realistic Healthy plant based food choices, no expensive although natural 'superfoods', no expensive vegan processed food, beauty products, vitamins 🙂
Everybody can be healthy with simple healthy life style (no sleep deprived) and local affordable fruit and veggies, tubers, grains, seeds superfood 🙂🙂
This video was helpful from beginning to ending, thanks Chels!
Also my mom looked over my shoulder and first thought I was watching a video of myself 😄 I have brown eyes though :)
Thanks for sharing, I had forgotten how filling potatoes are. And delicious 😋
I did the potato reset a few weeks ago and lost 8.5 lb, although I have a long way to go I really got used to it quickly and didnt necessarily want to stop. Will do another one, probably after Christmas. Love the toast hack, def will try that one, where would we all be without an instant pot and air fryer!
Russet potatoes cooked in an Instant Pot are moist and lovely; not dry at all like when baked. Immediately after cooking, put on a large plate and cover with a cotton tea towel to cool and set. They are soooo good cold or reheated in whatever way. The glycemic count is also lower after cooled.
Great site. Thanks.
I just tried your method and omg they came out sooo delicious 👍👍 this will be the only way I make russet potatoes from now on.. thanks for sharing
How do you cook the potatoes in the instant pot?
@@annawilson4197 Put a cup of water in the pot. Put whole knife pierces slightly potatoes, medium size, on a rack and cook for 3 minutes. Cook further 1 or 2 minutes if more time is needed. Quick release.
I tried the sweet potato toast and it is fantastic!! Thank you for the inspiration and great recipes. Love love love your You Tube videos ❤❤❤
I love how real you are❤️ great video🥰
I love your video's. So informational.
I'm so glad you said what kind of sweet potatoes you were using because I was super confused by the color 😂
I can’t handle how cute your kids are😍 thanks for the video! I’m picking a date and doing this! 🥳
You got great recipes and great advice and knolodge.
You’re the best Chels!
Love your hack. I tried a potato diet but had to stop after a few days because My body cannot cope with potatoes at every meal, not exactly allergic but may be sensitive. I did a sweet potato diet for a week which I enjoyed but my favourite is a rice diet. Exactly what you did but using rice instead of potatoes. I always feel better and lighter afterwards.
Maybe you react to small amounts of solanine, if you didn't peel them try peeling them first and then cook them and see if the same thing happens? Sweet Potatoes don't have solanine.
Thanks so much Chelsea, the sweet potato toast idea has been a game changer for me…. PS. I’m a Vegemite kid from Australia 👌
Oh my goodness!! Pull ups! I have been wanting to get strong enough to them! Glad to see that it can be done as a vegan 🌱 💪🏻
Thanks for your great video 🥰🥰🥰
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Our husbands have similar little smiles of warmth and cuteness
Try cooking your sweet potatoes in a Dutch oven or just something with a cover so they steam and keep more moisture inside♥️♥️♥️
Love listening to your accent. I’m from the US. Potato reset concept so interesting. I first heard of it from another UA-camr BroccoliMum who is from the UK. I think I’ll try it for 2 weeks.
I have been eating more potatoes but also been eating legumes mostly chickpeas my fav. Love your videos.
Planning to try a potato reset in January. Hoping thos will help me get closer to transition to more whole food/plant based lifestyle.
I Love this . I eat potatoes everyday . Thanks for sharing.
I will try this potato toast. Thank you 🙏
This was so inspiring. There's a lot in here I'm going to implement.
What is the first thing you are going to implement?
@@ChelseaMae Purchase a variety of potatoes, roast them up, and eat with steamed vegs as a quick dinner. I know the roasting is not quick, but once a batch is done and in the fridge, they will be easy to warm up.
I use a microwave to ‘bake’ sweet potatoes. I peel them first and set the timer between 10-30 minutes depending on how soft I want them.
Hi Chelsea!! Great video! Do you drink regular coffee or decaf?
Ok I just haveeeeeee to ask where are you glasses from the name brand? i LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEEE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL - I laughed when you talked about Vegemite (aka Marmite), cuz it's not avail in US, unless a specialty store imports. We tried it when we traveled outside the US with some friends, and we found it very salty and over-powering. Someone told us we were using it too heavily - apparently it's meant to be used with a light hand. I guess it's an acquired taste - we weren't there long enough to actually get a taste for it. Travel, back when we used to do it, does open you to new foods and tastes. That was our experience with Vegemite. But the sweet potato toast sounds yummy, with lots of variations possible
💚your videos.. question: are the Potatoes/Sweet potatoes you use, Organic ?
Love your videos! Do you eat the skin on the sweet potatoes? I'm in America. They always are thicker and thought the skin should be removed after cooking it. But wonder if they're ok to eat? I eat russet potato skins.
I lost 20 pounds now I can't eat rice and only eat sweet potato 🥔🍠 with almost ever meal 🎉❤my hair line grew back bald spot filled in now I stay away from processed and eat real food 🥑🥝 God bless and I'm also goofy and silly 😁😜my dinner for more than 4 weeks organic eggs sweet potatoes 🍠 Irish butter 🧈 cinnamon maple syrup 🎉
I loved this video Chelsea, I also saw your video when you did the potato reset for a month. I’m a sweet potato devotee now,sooo delicious 😋. I haven’t felt the need to do a reset thus far, but I agree it’s a terrific tool to bring you back to centre.
I’m so trying the sweet potato toast, I eat vegemite 👏👌
Thank you I want to try it now 🙏
Thank you Chelsea
I like your videos!! Just a suggestion, would love to see one of the WFPB influencers get into sprouting/microgreens and get the word out about the nutrition in them. Since you have kids, it would be a fun project for you to do with them. A couple great books are "The Sprout Book" by Doug Evans, and "The Wheatgrass book" by Ann Wigmore. I do a great combo of eating all types of potatoes cooked, but combining them with sprouts/microgreens which I eat raw. Sprouts are especially great for those people who don't really like vegetables, or have to have them covered in sauces to eat. You get a ton of benefits by eating only a cup a day, of sprouts, or even better, a cup at each meal!!
Hi Chelsea, great video, yes The LOCKDOWN IN AUCKLAND SUCKS🤔 But on a positive note sweet potatoes/ kumara are great I loved it. Thanks for sharing your kumaras😉 and great ideas
They make gluten free Vegemite, now, so I'm super keen to try your sweet potato "toast".
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing.
I love potatoes so much there a daily staple. I haven't done a potato reset, but I have done several Mary's Mini's.
Love your videos! Keep 'em coming. 😁
I love it like Mary mini🥰🥰I pick potato 1 week was amazin. I need to do again
I am on day 7. Love the toast hack, yum!
Thank you!
As an older Kiwi now living in Western Australia, I so miss my Kumara. It is possible to get it sometimes but too expensive for my very limited income to eat often; for me now it’s a very occasional treat when available. I so envied your generous use of them. So I checked the price at NZ Countdown and was shocked to see even there it was listed at $12kg. And you don’t get many for a kg! Also, when I was young growing up in the Wairarapa the predominant spread used was Marmite though Vegemite was available so I found your comments on the spread interesting; obviously change has occurred there. In Australia Vegemite has always been more popular as far as I can tell.
Thanks for your videos; I find them practical and encouraging. 🙂
A potato reset for a couple weeks isn't "faddy;" it's been a healthy diet/habit reset for a while now. Some people don't know what they're talking about.
So beautiful 😍 and so accurate,,,, thank you so much 😊
Thanks for sharing this
Food is the most powerful medicine! Moving from the ideal of being thin equals beautiful to healthiness’ beautiful. I think considering that everyone is a very different beauty, in terms of weight, in terms of size, look. I’ve noticed that women are getting skinny thinner and thinner. There’s also so much information about different diets, and overwhelming and confusing… Its good aware of a good diet is to inspire women to make changes to their diet and also their lifestyle, diet, exercise, sleep based on hormone, health, longevity, beauty as well as skin in the future.
You’re channel and you are awesome
Great video.😊
3 kgs down since finding your info about being in a calorie deficit. First 2 weeks I was feeling a bit hungry at night which is okay. Even Dr Fuhrman talks about this and moderate caloric restriction. This third week I actually have felt not hungry a lot of the time. I think my brain has got with the program and now thinks ‘oh no, time for more fibre...let’s lay low’.
Aww this is awesome!! sounds like you are on the right track!
Hey Chelsea! I like how hard you work when losing weight! You inspire people! New friend to help you grow your channel! Let's get big together!
I never knew about the potato reset until yesterday. But I went through a phase in my pregnancy with my second child where all I wanted was potatoes. I ate so many potatoes! All I ate was potatoes and veggies. And I lost 10 pounds in two months. I wasn’t trying to I just loved potatoes during my pregnancy! And I still love them.
The Netherlands has marmite too (marmelade). Hubby and I will do the potato reset come januari.
The truth is like you said a calorie deficit is all that is necessary for weight loss! BTW you are absolutely gorgeous.. Have a Blessed Day..
I so needed to watch this video today. I lost about 25 kg eating WFPB with a major kickstart from the Mary’s Mini. My weight has crept up by four kilos over winter and my habits have been less consistent. I’m going to reset for two weeks starting tomorrow. I’ll let you know how I go!
Yes, please keep me posted!
Your change HAS to be permanant. Dont treat it as a diet.
@@cheezheadz3928 I’m not going to eat only potatoes and non starchy vegetables for the rest of my life. The whole concept of a potato reset/Mary’s Mini is that it’s a short term, intensive period of resetting. It was originally designed for people with significant pathology and/or emotional issues with food. It’s now used widely as a mechanism to reset your intentions, regain consistency or simply to lose a little weight gained during a period of excess.
@@ChelseaMae my start weight was 64.6 kg and I finished up on 62.1 kg after two weeks. Super happy and it’s left me feeling great!
@@thriftyvegan73 how are you now?, it’s a year on
Love you and your family Chelsea, you're all adorable. ❤
I love potatoes but not plain. I will try this as long as I can mix it up a little.
I love my potatoes and veggies roasted in the air fryer. I might have to try these tips. Potatoes and rice are my go to since I am allergic to gluten.
me too ❤️
I eat WFPB and low on oils. Learned that impossible burgers are worse than beef burgers with more saturated fat. Its a constant learning process
No way! I'm trying the sweet potato toast! 😍 I've fallen into the habit of eating weetbix and soy milk everyday for breakfast 🙄 so I need a reset!!! ❤️
Let me know how you go with it!
Whats wrong with wheatbix and soymilk?
@@fancypuss it's not bad but it's not the most nutritious choice ☺️
Is there much of a difference between the orange and the white sweet potatoes?
I want to try this for a month
Potatoes have changed my life ❤
Ooh, it’s definitely Vegemite here too for us Aussies! It was made here first, in 1923, then later, NZ started making it too. Marmite is a “UK thing”😅
