hello babe welcome back to my channel so I'm filming another video for you guys
today I'm filming a fall ha just made up that song right now but by the way this
is what I literally slept in I love sleeping in super warm sweaters I have
flannel do you guys see this like flannel pants on which is almost the
same feeling as this then I have a cotton blanket but don't think of like a
cotton sheep like it I have like a cotton Billie's think almost wool kind
of blanket and then I have this really chunky comforter on top guys I am in my
warm cocoon and it's like it cannot get hot enough you don't know I'm saying it
just cannot get hot it up I've always felt like that I love my warm little bed
but the problem with that is I get into a hibernation mode right now you guys
it's definitely a season that tests you and it really makes you like see if you
can push yourself are not really but it does we're going to be doing a BLT baby
be to the bacon out to the lettuce the tomato that's right and a part of me is
like to one day wait in there you know what I'm saying like a belt a be elt
order I just want to do like a classic one pack my pan getting all nice and hot
over here for me so these are the bacon pieces I'm gonna be using these bacon
rounds it's by President's Choice and it just literally says bacon rounds this is
what they look like honeydew better sizzles
work what I love about bacon and I think a lot of people don't know is that the
back of the package you might say if you use two slices it's like 200 calories
but don't forget guys if you're cooking in the oil and you let it like really
soak down I like to use paper towel after and really check out the oil the
calories is not that much compared to that because it's the oil on the spot
that carries a ton of calories though so I have a little bowl over here we're
actually gonna be doing our a way instead of our microwave it's just gonna
be easier around if I use this pan and I've seen it first do the egg they
consume your oil on it so this is just another quick and easy way you can make
your eggs especially when you're doing a sandwich so I've grabbed my olive oil
spray and I just kind of rubbed a little bit
paper towel around the bowl separates I really don't want this fall
it's that breezy yolk like this when I go back and forth come on that little
piece of feeling so stubborn it always does back we're gonna grab
some salt a bit it's just gonna make it a little bit more fluffy inside of the
microwave there my microwave is really really crazy like it's a really powerful
so I'm just gonna try like a good 30 seconds ago slowly guys on my old place
I could do a minute but just kind of go slowly and see the next thing we're
gonna need is some romaine lettuce look how a beautiful leafy green this is like
love it love the color of nature and then we have a tomato so just going to
cut a couple slices of that I use the white thin sandwich slices and I
wondered the two of these is gonna be one of 40 yeah it's already cooked we're
gonna take this guy out and I have my plate over here set up with my paper
towel and this is what I do this is the oil that's come from those who two
pieces of bacon and you're not consuming any of this and you're also not
consuming any of the access oil that's on there that is a ton of calories that
you're taking out of your bacon that's why I always love to stress to people
patience not as high calories you think okay so grabbing and there's a bit of
but I'm putting it on each side I love butter I wanna see it just adds so much
flavor like how could something so simple add so much flavor so my butter
is vegan by the way I don't know if you guys care to know but it is
I just freshly washed this my romaine tiny but I just wanted to get some egg
inside of there bacon down thank God I did two slices like look how tiny these
got you guys love tomato guys I love fresh tomato cooked tomato but I think I
like the raw tomato better than cooked tomato I like to cut all of my
sandwiches and how cuz I'm still a child I also wanted to show you guy that
almost to take my probiotics I'm taking
probiotics recently as of recently and I tried these good belly probiotic shots
and this one is vanilla and camomile flavor and it is dairy-free I'm also
trying the kefir the Leibert a keeper one the strawberry one in this container
but I've noticed thing as I'm having this one I don't really do well with
dairy in general this is the other one I'm having but I find it bloats me we're
just making our coffee but I find that it blocked me and dairy just has that
effect on me that's why I kind of rip dairy as much as I could from my life
wow that sounded really dramatic I just ripped you out of my legs that could not
stand you know like I'll have like cheese and stuff like that but I noticed
with that one I don't feel as good at this one I have like a flat tummy
I don't feel super bloated and it tastes good put 60 calories for this shot i
taked in the morning before I do anything else I'm also doing cashew milk
is amazing that I'm doing I'm still using like my almond milk but I decided
to get this one since it was really low in calories this one is 35 calories per
cup just like my other almond milk is I find this one you really taste that
nutty flavor at the end I will include my probiotic of course because it is
sixty calories but this is what we're having our beautiful BLT sandwich our
coffee and I'm gonna finish this shot before I start eating anything else and
I've just really been enjoying it and we will be back for lunch so I really like
this what I eat today actually because it showed you guys what I kind of buy
when I'm having a crazy busy weeks and I cooked kind of over the weekend I
believe I made my soup on Sunday we're gonna be having that a little bit later
for dinner because I feel like it's really good to have kind of before bed
it's nice and warm and everything and you guys have been warning that recipes
so for lunch though right now I have these leftover cucumbers that I really
want to use up I don't want them to go bad and it really bothers me when I like
can't find a way to use things up so what I picked up here from Longo's are
these falafel and it actually came with hummus like the sauce on the side but
I'm not going to be using the sauce so there was more balls of this but I just
ate half of it this whole container it says it's 270 actually one
make a falafel recipe so I do pick things like this up when I'm just having
a crazy busy week and I still want to eat fairly healthy and balanced and then
I have a Greek salad that I also got from them I bought two of these because
if you buy two you get them for seven dollars
there's kalamata olives there's feta cheese your greens you have some red
onion I don't put all of this because I tend to get bloated onion really just
floats me and it's like very acidic then there's little slices of tomato or
little grape tomatoes over here but I actually have a piece of tomato inside
my fridge so I'm gonna use that up as well but how good does this look already
and funny enough it's a Greek salad but it doesn't have any cucumber in it so
this is another really quick and easy idea if you guys are out of 9 to 5 and
you want to grab something quickly from the grocery store they have to pin on
the interior so what I like to do is grab my knife and kind of shave each
individual one off yes I do each individual one like to cut my grape
tomatoes and a half sometimes they literally squirt out my face right my
outfit I'm like really like thanks for that I really love falafel and I do
really want to make that recipe on my own because I know I can make it a
little healthier and I will not be frying mine I will be baking them and I
honestly think it's gonna taste just as good I'm gonna wash this cucumber okay
we're gonna add everything else in
so I'm leaving just a little bit left over in the package of mine using the
full entire thing toss the sky with our dressing you can warm these up a few
guys who want to but I just like to have them just like this I like to cut them
in half it's kind of spreading them apart so that you have more instead of
it looking like you're not eating that much I'm bit of a person I do eat with
my eyes if you guys are like that too or if you guys are new to the calorie
counting journey that we are all on probably be one of those where you know
you kind of are afraid of your portions and they're making you really sad it
looks like you're not eating a lot so this is kind of another tip that I have
cutting up things and making it look like it's a lot more and again this is
like really good for on-the-go moms that are super busy if you guys have a really
crazy busy week it's super quick and easy and sometimes I don't cook at home
and this is kind of what I eat dinner dinner let me show you guys this
gorgeous fall soup that I made like does this look like fall or what so I cooked
this on Sunday yes I didn't film it for you guys but I'm gonna have the entire
recipe down below it's super quick and easy honestly you cannot mess this
recipe up my honest truth is that sometimes I just like to cook like in
silence and peace and I was just having like a really lazy Sunday it's always
this thing like it's frozen better than fresh right they were actually saying
that frozen spinach and frozen fruits and veggies in general actually keep
their nutrients more once a frozen buying frozen fruits and veggies you're
going to save so much money it is not even funny like a bag is five dollars of
blueberries meanwhile a little tiny container is five dollars
it's definitely soup season and you guys are going to love this one
the other thing I want to mention is typically in the Portuguese soup we use
our Portuguese sausage which is called shitty sand with basically pork sausage
obviously and that is a lot more fatty so what I've done to replace it is I
just had some turkey sausages that I actually bought and honestly have this
soup vegetarian if you guys don't want to use any meat it's totally fine but if
you do want to add sausage you could add pork sausage it's just gonna be a lot
more calories whereas these guys were really super low calorie super
comforting really nice and warm of course for the fall season it
obviously depends how big your bowl and how big your portion and how much you're
putting of each ingredient my advice is to use a app like My Fitness Pal or my
net diary which allows you to do a recipe it will ask you in the end like
split this up into ten bowls and you guys can put into ten containers and you
know how much calories is the entire pot and you know how many calories are
specifically in that containers so I really wanted to include it in a video
so that you guys didn't have to wait too long for it oh by the way if you guys
have not watched my latest vlog make sure you guys do it has my pumpkin spice
latte in that video that you guys wanted and it also has my banana bread because
we're waiting so if you guys missed that video make sure you guys go back and
watch it if you guys are not follow me on IG by the way it is at stuff Jake
Macedo Macedo probably gonna let me give you both a little bit of an update I
feel like I haven't in a while so my weight loss journey has been very like
whoo but I'm still doing what ain't in a day to lose weight because this is a
journey I'm still on my weight-loss journey and as you guys know I gained
weight and I feel like ever since I've moved in my journey has been very like
floppy focusing on other parts of my life or there's just been too much going
on or something but my weight loss definitely went on the back burner and I
told you guys that I did gained about like 10 to 12 pounds and then I lost
like some of that and gained some of it and lost some of that again so the whole
point of wedding in the days to lose weight is a whole journey I'm never I
never want to come on here and be like this week was perfect this week is
perfect this week was perfect cuz that's not how it always goes on a weight loss
journey you know it was so much easier meaning we're actually talking about
this it's so much easier than beginning you have this fire we're time that fire
runs out and you have to kind of for those of you who have been on this for
like as long as I have and you guys have been following along you're probably
like oh my god she's going through a Toolik I thought it was crazy you're not
crazy girl like the fire burns out and you have to create that fire yourself
and I remember talking to you guys about that ain't going to the gym has just
been hard I went back and I was feeling great and then it just kind of died
down again and I feel like I was so focused on work and it's sometimes
really hard to balance when work is really busy fall in winter is a massive
challenge no one wants to make it to the gym in the winter and it's just so much
harder I go into this like hibernation mode what I've noticed for myself that's
gonna help me a lot is doing at home workouts if you can't make it out there
then there's no excuse why you can't be doing it here and if you can make an
hour time for this or an hour to go home to core shopping then I think you can
make an hour to work your butt off like you know I'm not going back to where I
started that's for sure I just wanted to chat with you guys a little bit and just
let you know like this thing is not perfect if you guys have been doing this
from one I've been doing it and you're still going strong and doing it good for
you you know what I mean like all power to you and I'm so proud of all of you
guys that I've been on this journey because I know how hard it is I know how
hard you guys are working especially if you guys were heavier than I were if you
guys lost more than I did like honestly congratulations like that's that's
really huge and you probably don't hear people like I'm so proud of you all the
time and I honestly am especially if I was some sort of inspiration for you
guys during all that and I hope I was I honestly think that's one of my goals is
to really just inspire people but I also don't want to come on here and be like
everything is perfect I'm losing weight week by week that's not the case that's
just not the case I'm human and I'm going through this thing you know what I
mean and I have other struggles too so but yeah maybe I need to work a little
less and maybe I need to work out a little more work a little less work out
a little more you know what I'm saying I still love to do this what a today's to
lose weight because it's my weight loss journey it's what I'm doing to lose
weight just because I don't lose that pound or that town jinan hat for those
two pounds does know I mean I'm not on a weight loss journey and I'm on this with
you guys honestly hopefully all of these videos
are helping you guys out and just remember that it's not always going to
be perfect and don't give that number on the scale even with me don't let it like
take over all of the progress that you've made you know I constantly remind
myself that being and it's just number and everything that you've done
up into this point is so much hold so much more value than that damn number on
there and I did in that homework out last night and I felt so good and my
arms are like sore and everything and I'm just slowly getting back at it
because it's just where I'm at I think influencers like us that are on these
weight loss journeys and have these audiences watching us there's a lot of
pressure why am I not at 125 why am I not at 120 right now well cuz I'm not I
don't know what's going on in your lives and that's why you can't judge or
anybody is that so I have a funny story guys so I decided to go and grab my
Starbucks so I did it on my phone and I'm like I'm gonna just do my mobile
order I got it and then I'm like like random craving my so this is like
something that I consider my cheat whenever I want something really sweet
but like a bad sweet I know you guys have like some locations in the US but
not a lot you see that right there like this is our coffee spot okay like this
is what we are known for this is my favorite from two morons a peanut butter
cookie I think I have to save that guy in the fridge it was like so random I
was not even thinking of this I'm gonna go and enjoy this you guys and I love to
dip inside of my coffee I take my coffee this is a medium coffee with two milk
one sugar that's how I take it isn't I actually should make these at home
myself so that I can make them a little bit more healthy and dip them into my
own coffee well we're at 94 K you guys oh my god we're getting close to 100
