- I don't eat breakfast unless it's the afternoon breakfast.
I get really nauseous in the morning usually.
I'm not pregnant.
(Jazzmyne laughs)
It's just been like this since I was a kid, okay?
(upbeat music)
- Hi, I'm Jazzmyne.
- And I'm Lindsay, and we're gonna be
swapping diets for an entire week.
Are you excited?
- No.
Lindsay eats like a toddler,
which is barely and really picky.
- Well, you eat breakfast
(Jazzmyne laughs) every day.
- Oh, breakfast every day!
I'm weird.
I eat three meals and a snack.
- I only usually eat one meal and maybe a snack
for the day 'cause I eat so much in the middle of the day.
- You do. - I have no portion control.
If it's in front of me, I'm gonna finish it.
- I don't know if this is gonna (beep)
me up with past eating disorders.
If I wake up and I wanna eat breakfast,
I'm gonna eat breakfast, 'cause I feel like
for a really long time, I told myself, no, you can't.
- I do eat breakfast sometimes.
- [Jazzmyne] Lindsay sent me
a list of the food that she eats.
Started off with breakfast, usually none,
dinner, sometimes none, snacks during work, hardly ever.
- And yours is-- - So that's all I've got
To say. - Five times as long.
- [Jazzmyne] Yeah, I gave you options.
- [Lindsay] We do have very different diets.
But we we do have things in common.
- Yeah, like we're both people.
(crickets chirp) (Jazzmyne laughs)
- I was gonna say we both like Subway a lot, but.
- Lindsay does go out to eat more than I do,
but I did put Panda Express on there.
- That is gonna be the best. - So.
- You ready, Jazzy Jazz?
- Yeah!
No. (text whizzes)
This is Lindsay's at-home food for a week.
Popcorn, cottage cheese, carrots and hummus,
pineapple, Lay's, and rotisserie chicken.
She eats cottage cheese with Classic Lay's as her snack,
which I would never do because to me
cottage cheese was a healthy alternative.
When I was growing up and on diets,
I would eat just cottage cheese as my meal.
- [Lindsay] This is my favorite aisle.
Jazzmyne loves her popcorn, and I know she
doesn't go for the super buttery.
But I gotta tailor it to myself.
I love butter!
I'm not even done yet.
This is insane.
(text whizzes)
It is day one, and all I wanna do
is order Postmates 'cause it's the weekend,
and I like to treat myself with breakfast in bed.
But the first thing on the list
is I have to drink a whole cup of water in the morning,
which is probably for the best.
I'm dehydrated all the time.
Thanks, Jazzy Jazz.
Hope you have fun eating breakfast in bed.
I'm gonna get up now and make that entire
freaking thing that you wrote me to do.
- I am Postmate-ing breakfast, which,
honestly, I don't like the sound of.
Breakfast foods I feel like you're supposed
to eat when they're ready because eggs can get cold.
Waffles and pancakes can get soggy.
It doesn't sound exciting having it brought to me.
But Lindsay does it, so I'm gonna try it.
- I was kind of annoyed to get up
and make something, but it's really easy.
This is honestly what I'd get
if I were just to order something.
I know.
Everyone in this video's gonna be like,
"Lindsay, you are so lazy."
And you know what?
You're right, I am.
And I'm gonna practice something different this week,
and I think I'm gonna like this.
- [Jazzmyne] My food just got here.
And you know what?
It's all warm.
Wow, maybe this is gonna be a lot better
than I thought it was gonna be.
- Here's the finished product!
(bright electronic music)
Mm!
Breakfast one down.
(text whizzes)
Day two and I've already forgotten
to drink my one glass of water in the morning.
(buzzer buzzes) Guess I'll just
do that when I get to work.
Jazzmyne eats Special K in a cup.
Look what I got for breakfast!
It's such a you thing.
Enjoy it. - For this cup.
- Yeah.
- [Lindsay] Oh, how are you liking your coffee? (laughs)
- We had a meeting, and you weren't there,
and there were cupcakes, so I got you
the cupcake I would eat. (chuckles)
- I don't want a cupcake!
I had breakfast, which I don't usually have.
And then I couldn't eat as much for lunch 'cause I was full.
- We switched diets for a week.
- Oh, I'm sorry. - So I essentially starve,
and Lindsay eats four meals.
Her diet is Chipotle, ramen, and coffee.
- Oh, she goes to Chipotle a lot.
- She literally, it has on the list, dinner sometimes.
- (laughs) I bet she's up working
or just doing everything else--
- No, she ain't working. - If she forgets to eat.
- She's watching One Tree Hill and not eating.
- Not hungry enough?
We got popcorn for dinner!
Watching "Love Actually" and feeling good.
(text whizzes)
- Eating dinner right now, and I am trying Lindsay's
cottage cheese and Lay's chips.
(playful music)
It's pretty good.
- I doubled the sausage and doubled
the eggs because I am so hungry.
Ooh, look at that steam!
Ooh, am I a chef?
- It's just so interesting to see how
you and your best friend are similar, but different.
The food that Lindsay eats, I feel like
I look at that food and I gain five pounds automatically.
The fact that Lindsay doesn't start her meals
until 11 to one, I could never do that.
And she was talking today about how she
ate breakfast and she's got more hungry.
Just because you look a certain way
doesn't mean you're doing things the right way.
Or just because you look a certain way,
it doesn't mean you're doing things the wrong way.
Bodies are just different.
(text whizzes)
- I forgot to drink water again.
(playfully dramatic music) Ooh!
So, Jazzmyne is already mad that
I didn't eat breakfast this morning.
I didn't have a chance, and now it's lunchtime!
- So we're gonna go to Subway.
- Look at Selorm!
- And we're gonna order what we each would get.
- Okay. - And then we're gonna
switch it. - Okay, you cannot
get mayonnaise, though, I cannot do mayonnaise.
- No mayonnaise. - Not at all?
- No. - Not even lite?
- No.
- Look at my highlight.
- Look at mine. (Selorm laughs)
I've only gotten what I get now my entire life at Subway.
- Okay, well, you're getting a wrap now.
- Ugh, I wanna eat it so bad.
Yeah? - This is meaty.
(upbeat electronic music)
- Mine's better, but--
- I don't think so.
This is a lotta bread.
(text whizzes)
- Jazzmyne texted me this morning
with just the words, drink water.
So that helped me remember this morning.
For breakfast, I am going to drink
this juice that Jazzmyne always drinks.
I'm actually excited about this because I love green juice.
It is food truck Thursday.
Jazzmyne?
- Yeah?
- Can I get a food truck thing?
- I don't know, I'd probably order Jimmy John's.
- I don't want Jimmy, we already ate a sandwich this week!
(Jazzmyne laughs)
It's a Texas barbecue truck.
I'm from Texas.
I like barbecue.
- Yeah, but this isn't your diet.
(Lindsay sighs)
But okay.
- Do you wanna choose what I get?
- I would get the sausage.
And then--
- Fries, fries, fries, fries, fries.
I want fries! - The Frito pie.
- Dammit!
- Why, what'd you want? - I wanted just fries.
- Nope. - Frito pie, that's like
a whole 'nother--
- I just wanna share some.
- Okay. (laughs)
- I decided to pay Lindsay some respect here,
and I got Chipotle, because I know it's her favorite.
Though I'm gonna be eating it
in front of her, so I kinda feel rude.
- [Man] Kill it, kill it, kill it!
- This looks great.
- It looks so good! - Yeah.
(text whizzes)
- I am gonna work from home.
I'm actually really hungry.
Good thing I have plenty of food to pick from!
I have made myself lunch, and it looks like
a kid's school lunch, but I'm very excited to eat this.
- Today has been a crazy-busy day, and my day is not over.
I'm about to go to a concert, but I don't
really have a lot of time to eat.
So I'm really thankful that I have
this rotisserie chicken here.
(text whizzes)
In true Lindsay fashion, I am going out to brunch right now.
So, I messaged her and I was like,
yo, what would you get for brunch?
She said, waffles, eggs, and sausage, or eggs Benedict.
I've never had it before.
I'm excited to try it!
Woo!
- Oh yeah, baby!
Panda Express!
Last night of eating like Jazzmyne.
Finishing it off on a good note.
You could bury me in orange chicken when I die,
and I think that would be a really beautiful funeral.
It's the ultimate comfort food, and I'm so here for it!
- [Jazzmyne] So, how'd you feel?
- It's hard, it's a different routine!
Water was the hardest.
I would wake up, do my routine, get in the car,
and then realize that I did not drink enough water.
(Jazzmyne laughs)
And that happened maybe three times out of the whole week.
- Did you learn anything?
Are you gonna take anything away?
- I do think about drinking water more.
- You think about it?
(both laugh)
- This video did make me think more about
what I put in my body, because when I'm hungry,
I just order what I feel like making.
But when you actually have to plan out
your meals and cook them and stuff,
you actually have to put more thought into it.
- It's true. - And I think I was
obviously naturally more healthy doing so.
I will say, though, with my whole portion control dilemma,
I had so much food in my fridge,
I just couldn't stop eating.
In conclusion, we're gonna just keep doing us.
- Diets do not define friendships.
Through our differences and through
our dilemmas, we're still friends.
