I love your channel mainly because you love food and weird concoctions as much as I do!
I also bang my spoon on the edge of the pot lol
I just filled Porta Bella mushrooms with hummus and baked them… delish!
I am a mom of 12 birth kids and curvy. This is truely helping me slim down and is super fulfilling! I've yet to make the cake, but it is on my list. I'm excited to eat so much and watch the scales move. Down 3 lbs and counting! In 1.5 weeks!! Yeah! Thank you my dear friend! 😘
I’m new to your channel and I’ve heard you mention a couple of times that you lost 65 pounds. Can you tell me how long it was before the weight started to come off and how long it took for the 65 pounds to come off in the end? Thanks!
Highly recommend getting scales that measure body fat percentage. (I have the fit track ones but there’s cheaper ones out there). As you’re getting leaner and fitter you’ll probably end up gaining weight as you’ll be gaining muscle. Definitely helps as seeing the scales go up again can be scary but when you can see that it’s muscle and not fat, it’s a super confidence boost and motivator 💪🏻
I grew up on the standard American way of eating, but I have evolved on my own. I discovered Chew on Vegan last year, and fell in love with the starch solution lifestyle. So happy to have found your channel for lots of new inspiration!
Well, for the most part, I like your recipes, however, I tried your chickpea ice cream recipe and it definitely was not for me lol I love chickpeas and I love chickpea cookie dough. It does not make that great of an ice cream in my opinion lol but hey if you’re living it that’s great I’ll just stick with my banana nice cream.
I thoroughly enjoy watching your channel for all your helpful info & recipes but have to say that seeing what Romy (&Abe) is up to is the bonus, lol, that cheeky face when she smiles at the camera, & talks to herself in the background while you are talking is just too cute. I am working on eating more veggies & my fruit quota has def increased. Keep making your videos, they are great!!
I just tried the chickpea/cherry ice cream. OMG it's tremendars! 😀
The chickpea ice cream looks so interesting. I might try bulking out my banana nice cream with 1/2 cup chickpeas and 1 banana instead of 2 bananas to get some extra protein in. A cute name for it could be "ice bean"!
Small white grinning polar bear dark chocolate cake 🤪 you always loose my focus when Romi is grinning and laughing. Adoooooorable. Yes hunger fullness please. I struggle with night snacking too and crisps calling me that my partner may bring in the house. Plus is the veggies move through a little too quick it makes me starving again. Oh and yes and from the last video yes please for James updates and progress.
Thanks for another great motivational video 🙌 A video on hunger- fullness cues will be good 😀
I love eating WFPB and lost 45 pounds about 3 years ago eating this way. But I got lazy during covid, and my family refuses to eat many veggies, so I've kind of 'fallen off the wagon' and gained back 20 pounds. I recently found your Instagram and YouTube accounts, and you're beginning to motivate me to get back on that wagon to take care of myself by eating WFPB all the time again. Thank you for your videos and energetic, positive attitude! I'm trying the ice cream tomorrow!
Love following along on the journey…. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication to yourself and your family! Thanks for the inspiration, tips, and recipes! God Bless!!
Great video
I’m current plateauing so might need to increase those veggies.
Love that you are using the rebounder. Thanks for sharing, ❤
Please do a YouTube recipe for the berry/bean ice cream. Thank you!
Oh, I forgot to say……..about hunger fullness cues……..I don't really get hungry, starving. What I get is that I start to feel faint. And if I eat something at that faint moment I feel better, BUT, I never really know when I'm truly hungry. If this makes any sense, maybe you could address it. Thanks!
You are amazing and using chickpeas to make your berry ice creams absolutely genius 👏👏 Romi’s face and enthusiasm for sharing your food is priceless 😍😍😍would love to her more about hunger and fullness cues 😍
Yes, I'd like to hear a full chat on hunger fullness cues!
Yes please! Make a video on hunger fullness cues!
Thank you!
Recently found you! Love your videos!
I'm sorry if you've already talked about this in a previous video, but did you breastfeed your baby while eating this way? I was doing starch solution before I got pregnant (I tried to follow it as much as I could while I was pregnant, butttt.. I was pregnant, okay?! Lol!) But now I am 8 weeks postpartum. I really want to lose this extra 15lbs of baby weight, but I don't want to hurt my milk supply!
Yes – definitely a video about hunger fullness cues
You and Romi have beautiful eyes! Are there any foods Romi doesn't like? You are so lucky to have a gut that isn't sensitive to large amounts of cabbage, beans, etc. I love veg and eat tons, but if I eat as many cruciferous veg as I want my stomach goes nuts. Same goes for beans.
Did you also eat this way while pregnant? I’m so interested but cautious bc I am currently pregnant…
Love your channel Ami. You have got me and my hubby eating lots more veggies, I actually crave them now x
Love those Romi smiles to the camera!!!!
Most of your comments on Instagram are where's the protein, 😂 poor you, everyone turns into a nutritionist.
Oh my goodness Romi is so stinkin CUUUTTTEEEEEE give me some ice cream nooooooow🤣🤣🤣🤣 awww baby!
wld love a tutorial on how you do various things in the ipot (-:
I would love an in depth video on hunger fullness cues thank you for your great content!! Love it!
Listen to this young momma! She's motivated me again to introduce more veggies again and I've lost 5.5# in 3 weeks. I'm 63 so the weight doesn't just fall off easily anymore but this process IS working. Thank you Ami!
Hunger fullness discussion please 🙂 but it could just be in your normal video chats! Why do extra work? Up to you of course.. 🙂
I love your videos and have been binge watching since I discovered you. I’d love a video on hunger/fullness queues.
Yes please if you could do a recipe for the ice cream 😊Thanks again for sharing hun xxxx
You better give Romi some ice cream lol 😂. Bless her, she’s so sweet. That I’ve cream looks lush. I was going to ask you if you ever use protein powder? Xxx
Cooking red cabbage with soy suce and garlic is absolute heaven – thank you so much for the tip! 🙂
Hi Ami, you’ve done so well and you look absolutely amazing. My main goal is to lose weight and keep active whenever I can as I have a desk job. Did you do any weight training at all? Not sure whether to focus on that once I’ve lost the weight or do it whilst I’m losing. I need to include more vegetables xxxxxx
Is it me or is her skin perfect.
Hi from Ireland Ami! I cook in a similar intuitive way to you! I look at what I have in my cupboards & make a plan for the week & usually on the food shopping front it’s veggies & a few tins tomatoes/light coconut milk & beans/chickpeas (for the emergency times when I haven’t cooked them from scratch) I have sistema see through containers that I use to store my veggies (that I usually chop in one go!) & keep them handy & ready in the fridge for using. Right now I’m cooking Moong Beans in the Instant Pot we bought during lockdown times. I really enjoy your energy & enthusiasm. When you first thought of the ‘ice cream’ (I made that accidentally when making a smoothie-before adding the plant milk & also thought Eureka! Haha!) I was willing you to add a few dates for sweetness & you said you did! Delicious:)
Good afternoon Ami! I made your chocolate cake for breakfast, and for lunch your mushroom risotto with air fried zucchini.. Yum. I'd love a video about hunger fullness cues! Thanks for your vids X
would definitely like a talk on hunger/fullness cues please
Hi Ami, I would love some help with hunger fullness queues. I have lost 60 lbs on the Starch Solution and am challenged with the last pounds. As a volume eater, I often overeat especially at dinner. Thanks!
Hi Ami lovely to see you at lunch time . I had your mushroom gravy over my veggies at lunch time delicious 😋 Also I didn’t have any chickpeas so I used black beans instead in the microwaved chocolate cake again delicious and lastly a tip for making veggie prep quick and easy when I come home from shopping I break up broccoli and cauliflower etc into small florets and store ready to use in my fridge in those tie string muslin type bags that they sell in the supermarkets to put loose produce in ( 1 type of veg in each ) so when throwing veggies together it’s literally a 2 second job to throw them in a wok with soy and whatever spice !!
