No phones at meal time rule....not me watching this on my phone during my lunch break.

[biancatlady]

I needed to write it down
Tip 1: (1:43) Have protein at every meal and most snacks. Key to satiety (HCC). 20-35 grams per sitting.
Tip 2: (2:44) No phones at mealtime.
Tip 3: (3:39) Bulk up and stretch refined carbs with fiber rich veg. Add refined carbs to fiber rich veg (zucchini to pasta).
Tip 4: (4:33) Choose fats with purpose. Whole food fat sources (fat + fiber and or protein, like avocados or peanuts)
Tip 5: (5:39) Drink a big glass of water the moment you get up and another one as your coffee is brewing.
Tip 6: (6:31) Limit phone use before bed.
Tip 7: (7:18) Try to take calls or virtual meetings every day while walking.
Tip 8: (8:14) Buy different fruits and veggies than you did the week before. Ensures greater nutrient variety.
Tip 9: (9:08) Plan 3 mindless breakfasts to rotate with different variations. Keep protein in mind! (e.g. protein oatmeal, protein smoothie, cottage cheese bowl)
Tip 10?: (10:14) Mix high sugar cereal with a high fibre whole grain cereal.
Tip 11: (11:00) Experiment with fruit as sweetener.
Tip 12: (11:41) Drink 2 sips of water in between every single sip of alcohol.
Tip 13: (13:00) When dining out, always start with a veg based appetizer or salad.
Tip 14: (14:24) Batch prep meal building blocks, not completed recipes.
Tip 15: (15:09) Put pre-prepped fruits and veggies in clear glass containers.
Bonus tip: (15:53) When reheating leftovers throw in a handful of leafy greens to them to add more volume, fiber and nutrients.

dealing with health challenges, Abby Sharp's video resonated with my journey. Aspect Health played a role, offering personalized plans for a balanced lifestyle. Abby's tips align with my need for sustainable habits. prioritizing protein, mindful eating, and incorporating veggies were crucial in my transformation. realistic nutrition advice is empowering, making the new year about lasting changes. grateful for practical insights, keeping health a priority.

I love Abbey. She has helped me tremendously with my constant feeling of hunger and I now prioritize HCC in most meals. She has also completely changed my mentality on sugar and exercise. Now I exercise because it brings me joy and not to lose weight…I am really glad that she has a product out. I am definitely going to support her once the protein powder that I use now runs out

On the phone thing and getting good sleep - it was a game changer when I learned that we crave high fat high sugar foods when tired. So instead of a late night chocolate snack, choosing to listen to the craving and recognise it as a tiredness signal to head to bed has been so helpful.

Hi Abby, I would love to watch a video about fruits. Sometimes I hear „fruits are so healthy, eat as much as you want!“ and sometimes „don’t eat too much fruit, they are full of sugar!“ 🙈 so I am very confused. I trust you so I would appreciate a video about it ☺️

I'm a super fast eater. One way I've slowed down a lot is to play sudoku while I eat. Bite of food, play sudoku bite of food repeat. It's on my phone and it helps me. But I agree that mindless scrolling isn't going to help anyone.

[kayleigh]

I think my biggest gamechanger for nutrition is learning which healthy foods and meals I genuinely love. This way eating healthy never feels like a chore or self punishment - I actually crave them! And if sometimes I crave a burger and fries, it’s ok to have it, because I know the next day I might want to make turkey veggie soup or a great salad.

[MewMichaiah]

Thanks for mentioning that not all of these will work for everyone— I actually reverse engineered tip #2. When I got diagnosed with ADHD, my Adderall prescription seriously messed with my appetite and hunger cues. I found that when my appetite sucked, using my phone or watching TV while eating could be the difference between eating just a couple bites, and eating everything on my plate. I’d put a bite of food in my mouth whenever I noticed there wasn’t one, and I’d focus on something else while I chewed. I needed the distraction just to make myself eat, and it really worked. Hope this helps for people with similar issues!

Started seeing a dietician and have had the most balanced approach and the most personal success. As a binger, the "eat what you want, add what you need" methodology and eating more protein has been a main solution to my binges as qell as doing the emotional work.

[kerstin]

Just put in spinach in my bowl before re-heating my butter chicken, also added a few white beans to all of it. It tastes great and I just learned that you can fit A LOT more spinach in than I thought.

[HealthierByGrace]

Eating disorder therapist here. I love your balanced approach to nutrition. Flexibility is the best and thanks for sharing :)

[Emily-hdsm]

Thank you for putting this information out there! If qualified experts in nutrition and dietetics are just insisting people just shouldn't lose weight, then people are going to flock to those putting out harmful but profitable messages. So happy to have your voice in this conversation!

[Truecrimeresearcher]

I learn so much from you. I have been trying intuitive eating. Thanks to you I cut back on soda and drink more water but with my binge eating disorder I don't remove anything. I haven't binged in a month

[lydialevorson]

For fruits, I like meal prepping a huge fruit salad to eat within 3-5 days. That’s how I get a little bit of variety but easier

[jenniferhonaker]

These tips are brilliant. The mindless eating, the ravenous end of a workday, and monotonous food boredom really hit home! Thanks for the realistic solutions!!

[elleh]

I don't drink, but a tip from someone who does went like this: pour your alcohol for one drink. then stretch it out by making mini drinks from it...pour one glass of wine (your one serve for the day) and then pour some in a glass, add some sparkling water and fruit and make spritzers. Just keep doing this till the alcohol serving is gone. She can usually get 3 large wine glasses of wine spritzers from this, lasting the whole meal. I know, its not for the sommelier level drinkers, but anyhoooo. thanks for all the great tips Abbey! I love how you keep it positive and are really aware of your viewers needs.

[themelonsoup]

I need to lose weight for so many reasons, but I have been so overwhelmed by the thought of trying a new diet and exercise regimen. I think I'll try some of the tips you listed and see where it takes me.

[vala]

I love how these tips have health in mind and not restriction! Also her red lip is so cute!

[Lydia_Swenson]

Thank you for this video Abby! Gentle nutrition has worked wonders for me! I’ve lost 20 pounds and still get to enjoy my sweets! 🤗❤️
