I would be super good all week, I 30 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 3: would under eat, i would cut out the carbs, and 31 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: I'd get to Thursday or Friday and be like cheap 32 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 3: meal Friday, and they just blow it all weekend and 33 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 3: honestly eat to the point that I was sick. And 34 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 3: it was my own sort of I guess disordered relationship 35 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 3: with food when I was a little bit younger. So 36 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: now I know much better. Now I can spot these 37 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: dietary patterns, you know, a mile away. And these are 38 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 3: the types of clients that I work with that I 39 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 3: really you know, they have that disordered eating relationship with food. 40 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: And I started off a new lady a couple of 41 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 3: weeks ago, and she was doing really well. But I 42 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: almost said to her, like you're doing too well, like 43 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: you haven't had any soul food you haven't eaten out 44 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 3: at all. And it came from a big fear that 45 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 3: the minute she did, she was going to slip up 46 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 3: and go totally off the rails. And I said to her, like, 47 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 3: that's okay, Like if that happens, we learn from it, 48 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 3: we adjust, we adapt, we move forward. And I feel 49 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 3: like when you're trying to be one hundred percent good 50 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 3: and on the plan, you're not actually really learning anything. 51 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 3: So I really like it when my clients kind of 52 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: slip up or have a bit of a stumble or something, 53 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 3: because it allows us to actually work through real life 54 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 3: and give them some really practical suggestions. So she was 55 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 3: actually eating really well balanced meals. We hadn't cut out 56 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 3: the carbs show her meals. She was enjoying things. We've 57 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 3: got the portions right for her body. Her main meals 58 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 3: were really balanced. And then what we did for her 59 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 3: was just give her a target for the week of 60 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: snacks and soul foods, and I kind of said to her, look, 61 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: you can use them in any way that you like. 62 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 3: I don't really mind. If you want to have a 63 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: couple of meals out on the weekend or some extra 64 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: wines on the weekend, you might want to bank a 65 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 3: few for the weekend, but I didn't mean all of them. 66 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: And essentially what happened last week was actually had a 67 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 3: really good week in her eyes, she'd been super good, 68 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: and we do our coaching calls on a weekend with her. 69 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 3: We touch based daily during the week, but she's very 70 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: busy with her job. She just sends me a thumbs up. 71 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: She's like, yeah, all good, all on track, and for 72 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 3: her being one Hundredizar plan is like, I'm all good, 73 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 3: I'm on track. And when I push her around that, 74 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 3: she's like, I don't need it. I don't want it. 75 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 3: I'm not hungry, I don't need a snack. So she'd 76 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: basically gone the whole week with very very minimal snacks, 77 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: and on our debrief on the weekend call, it came 78 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: out that she was actually hungry most afternoons, like she 79 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 3: was pushing through from breakfast to lunch with no snacks. 80 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 3: She'd have a coffee and milk coffee and that was it, 81 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: and then she was pushing from lunch to dinner with 82 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 3: no snacks as as a well. But it actually came 83 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: out that she was starting to feel quite hungry in 84 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: the afternoon. But she was being very good, in her words, 85 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 3: ignoring the hunger and pushing through to dinner. So what 86 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: happened on Friday was that she had quite a stressful 87 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 3: day at work. She didn't do anything about that, so 88 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 3: again noticing those emotional pools and actually acting on them 89 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 3: as something I very much teach my clients. So she 90 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 3: didn't really act on that. She didn't do much about that. 91 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: She just got home. She ate her dinner, she wasn't satisfied, 92 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 3: and so she went straight to the pantry and she 93 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: was like, oh, I'm so hungry, Like I'm so hungry, 94 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: and on reflect This was an element of two types 95 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 3: of hunger. One of it was genuine physical hunger, but 96 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: she actually should have just had some snacks in the afternoon, 97 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: or she should have had something more before she got 98 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 3: all the way to dinner time. So she got to 99 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 3: dinner and she was starving versus just hungry enough for dinner, 100 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 3: which is never really great. And secondly, a lot of 101 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 3: that was some emotional or head hunger because she'd had 102 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 3: a really busy, stressful week and she hadn't really done 103 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 3: anything to acknowledge those emotions. So she went to the 104 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 3: pantry and she just grabbed a couple of things. She 105 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 3: had a nutbar, she had a couple of slices of toe, 106 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 3: she had something else, and a couple of glasses of wine. 107 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 3: And the moral of the story was that she ate 108 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: probably the equivalent of about three main meals at that 109 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: dinner time because things had just fallen apart basically. So 110 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 3: what we sort of came up with on reflection. And 111 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 3: I was really proud of her because I always say 112 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,359 Speaker 3: that the idea of reflecting on these situations isn't to 113 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: make you feel guilty or bad. It's not to be like, 114 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 3: oh bad you you had a slip up. The idea 115 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 3: is to learn and grow and move forward. And what 116 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: she really realized was that most days of the week, 117 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 3: some days she was okay. Somedays she have actually had 118 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 3: a snack. She should have actually had something in the 119 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 3: afternoon so she didn't get to dinner and was starving. 120 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 3: She should have picked a different dinner tight meal, because 121 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,480 Speaker 3: the one she made, although she'd planned for it, it 122 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 3: wasn't really that satisfying, all that volume dense. She also 123 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 3: probably should have factored in like a small soul food 124 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: after dinner, not just let herself open up the pantry 125 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: in the fridge and start grazing and eating. She should 126 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: have actually factored something in and she definitely should have 127 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: done some work in terms of her emotions that day 128 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 3: as well. So there are quite a few things adding 129 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 3: up to why she kind of fell off the rails 130 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 3: that night, but one of the biggest things was banking 131 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 3: all of her calories for the weekend or for Friday 132 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 3: orfore Saturday, and then she like very much overdid it basically. 133 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 3: So there was quite a few good, I guess reflections 134 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 3: that came out of that situation, and I'm super proud 135 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 3: of her, Like she's moved forward, We've made some great 136 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 3: progress towards fat loss in the week's following that. But 137 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 3: it was really great reflection for her, and it hasn't 138 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: happened since because she actually picked up where she was 139 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: going wrong. And so I just thought it was a 140 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 3: really nice case study to talk through because a lot 141 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 3: of peoplely struggle with the same thing. I definitely didn't 142 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 3: in my early years as well, And I just think 143 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 3: that it's okay if you want to run yourself a 144 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: little bit leaner during the week to pick up extra 145 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 3: calories on the weekend, but don't completely ignore those hunger 146 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: signals if your body's telling you it's hungry. The moral 147 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 3: of the story is, you've only got so much WheelPower left, 148 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 3: and by the end of the week, that hunger and 149 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 3: that wheel power can backfire on you tremendously. And it's 150 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 3: very easy to eat three or four times the calories 151 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: your body actually needs, even just in one sitting, if 152 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 3: you haven't actively paid attention to your hunger during the week. 153 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and a point I want to make about that 154 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: pattern of daily eating that comes up a lot with 155 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: my client's food diaries is that they love to go 156 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: light in the first half of the day. So I 157 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: might put early lunch in a second lunch you particularly 158 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: for women, but they'll often skip it or have just 159 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: a snack and then lunch, and then they eat, are 160 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: hungry all afternoon and then end up overeating on the 161 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: snacks because everyone loves a snack, you know, they're very 162 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: happy to have a cheese and crackers or a nutbar 163 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: or all of sud and that sort of loads soe 164 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 1: many calories. Just want to really stress that with circadian rhythm, 165 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: certainly you want to shift as many. 166 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: Calories as you can to that first half of the day. 167 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: So if you haven't consumed I would say fifty to 168 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: sixty percent of calories by one pm, you're probably not 169 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: optimizing metabolism and you will end up overeating through the 170 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: afternoon and evening, which is why I like my clients 171 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: to have a substantial lunch, and even I'd rather they 172 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: skip afternoon tea and have early dinner. But inevitably what 173 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: happens is that they eat, you know, lai a snack 174 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: or push it back, and then a light lunch and 175 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: then end up grazing all afternoon. So that is very, 176 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: very common. So remember feeding early. If I've always said, 177 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: if we've in trithle on nutrition, I always used to 178 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: say to clients the event nutrition is one on the bike. 179 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: If you fuel on the bike, it will feel you 180 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 2: for the run. You shouldn't be catching up on the bike. 181 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: And I say the same thing, your nutrition journey is 182 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: one at lunchtime because that predicts your afternoon and keeping 183 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: dinner light. But if you haven't nailed meal one and 184 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: meal two, we're chasing your tail all day and you'll 185 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: never sort of achieve that lightness at night that will 186 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: support sustainable that loss. 187 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: So that's a really good. 188 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: Thing to keep in mind, and you're better always to 189 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: eat early than late. All right, Lenne, We came across 190 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: and I've loved these products for the while because there's 191 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: a growing range of sort of savory pre made lunch choices. 192 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: I think we had like a lunch salad we talked 193 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: about last year. There's a few one pop meals there, 194 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: certainly protein soups, but there's also a growing range of 195 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: these kind of tuna salmon snack packs out there, which 196 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of as well, because I'm trying 197 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: to get clients to have more savory snacks and certainly 198 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 1: bump up their intake of protein, particularly for my perimenopause 199 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: are women, and you sent this one through, and I'm 200 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 1: also a big fan. Now it's a Serena, which is 201 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: an important brand, and there's several varieties of this lunch 202 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: salad mix, so we've got to be quite specific. 203 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: They're not all the same. 204 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: We've chosen or liked the brown rice with quinoa and 205 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: tuna mix, so you do have to be quite specific. 206 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: But per serve, it's just over three hundred calories massive 207 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: seventeen grams of protein, which is outstanding. It's got a 208 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: little bit of a Mega three, not as much as 209 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: salmon unfortunately, but not too bad. Thirty one grams a 210 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,319 Speaker 1: carp which is equivalent to say, two two and a 211 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: half slices of bread. 212 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: I love it. 213 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: Leanne just three grams of sugar, which is really low 214 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: for a processed food. Sodiums at seven hundred because it's 215 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: a fish product, but still pretty good. 216 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 2: But I love it. 217 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: It's got a really clean list. Twenty six percent tuna, 218 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: twenty three percent brown rice which is a whole grain, 219 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: ten percent quinoa, capsicum pairs, some little bit of oil, 220 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: sweet corn, chestnuts, very clean ingredient lists, no preservatives, no additives, 221 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: really some natural thickener and color. 222 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 2: That's it. 223 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: And I love it as well. I think it's a 224 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: really great product. How much does it retail for I'll 225 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: just still a quick check holes and woolies. But it's 226 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: one other handful that is sort of controlled and carbohydrate, 227 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: a really good amount of protein. If you had that 228 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: with a little bit of chopped salad or a cutup 229 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: tomato or to a three dollars thirty. 230 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 2: Is a lunch meal. 231 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: Can't go wrong with that. One of my big picks. 232 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, the serena brown rice and kinoa with tune. 233 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: Very great balance nutritionally. 234 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we're on the same page because I sent 235 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 3: you that one because I actually tried it the other 236 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 3: week and you're like, oh, I love these, which is awesome. 237 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 3: So taste whitse is actually really good. Volume wise, it's 238 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 3: not enough, like to me, it's a bit lean, So 239 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: I would put that with just a little bit extra. 240 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 3: I'd love to bulk up the protein, add a boiled 241 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 3: egg and a bit of salad or something based to that. 242 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 3: So if you're on the goal and you're looking for 243 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 3: a quick lunch, I'd grab one of those pre made 244 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,679 Speaker 3: salad kits in use half of that and dump that 245 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 3: into the salad kit, just the boost up the volume 246 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: of that as well. And I'd even add a little 247 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 3: bit of feta cheese or something on top of that, 248 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: just to put a little bit of an extra calcium 249 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 3: and a bit of protein in there as well. So 250 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 3: there's ways that you can boost it up a little bit. 251 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 3: Like it's not a large meal, it's only a really 252 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 3: small pot. It's very very cost effective. The ingredients are 253 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 3: really good, so it's a great starting base. But I 254 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 3: would say for ninety percent of my ladies and myself included. 255 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 3: It's just not enough for a lunch, particularly when we 256 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 3: just talked about having a really nice balance lunch. So 257 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 3: I think starting with that and bulking up with some 258 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 3: extra veggies or some salad, or you know, putting a 259 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 3: little something extra in there to kind of complete that 260 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 3: as a really well rounded lunch meal is a great option. 261 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 3: Or if you're looking for a really light dinner because 262 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 3: you have overdone it at lunch, or you've gone out 263 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 3: and you've had a really big work function, perhaps that 264 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 3: can work really well for a bit of a lighted dinner. 265 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: But I feel like for a lunch meal for most 266 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: of the people that listen to the potty, particularly if 267 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 3: you're active, you might just want to bolk it up 268 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: with something extra. But I think it's a great base 269 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 3: to start with. 270 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. 271 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: I think those kale slaw mixes would work really well there. 272 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: I think a sort of plain soup, like a plain 273 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: veggie soup could be mixed one hundred percent. You can 274 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: easily chuck that in a bowl and add a little 275 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 1: bit more to it. It's also one of those great products. 276 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of women at the moment, spending 277 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: their weekends at sporting events, and with my boys playing 278 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: rugby and soccer, I am one hundred percent understanding more 279 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: now how you head out early on a Saturday morning 280 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 1: with no food and all of a sudden you're at 281 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: the bacon and egg roll, you're at the sausage ses, 282 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: or you're at the pie and before you know it, 283 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: you've got home at three or four and you've just 284 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: eaten crap the whole day.

And then you base it up with 322 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: you chop up a lot of chopped cabbage. The cabbage 323 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 3: and the noodle together, you can easily lighten the load 324 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: on the rice noodles if you've got busy growing kids. 325 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 3: If you're active, you need more carb, add more noodle. 326 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 3: If you're slowing down your prairie meta poresal, you sit 327 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 3: down at work all day, you don't move much. Cut 328 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 3: down on the noodle amount and bulk up the cabbage amount, 329 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 3: and then you start with a base of onion and 330 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 3: garlic and extra version onli all which we love. From 331 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: a gut health perspective, there are natural types of prebodictu version. 332 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: Olive oil is. 333 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 3: Really anti inflammatory. Fry that up and dump in a 334 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 3: little packet. So five hundograms are very lean. Turkey mince 335 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 3: as well, so be careful because a lot of the 336 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 3: mince isn't just lean. So chicken and turkey mince, you 337 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 3: want to find a leaner variety of that, so fry 338 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 3: up your turkey mince with your onion and garlic. And 339 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: then we want to add as many veggies as possible, 340 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 3: so I love adding some cabbage in some broccoli, things 341 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 3: like carrots, mushrooms, capsicums, whatever you've gotten the fridge. Basically, 342 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 3: when the mints and the veggies have started to cook 343 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 3: all soften, I kind of just add a little bit 344 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: of water to the pan, pop the lid on, and 345 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 3: soften the veggies a little bit. I still like them 346 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 3: quite crunchy, but I don't like them too soft. But 347 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 3: I find that they cook better with the lid on 348 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 3: and just a little bit of water in the pan. 349 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 3: Then I'll take that lid off, take some of the 350 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: steam out of it, and I add a couple of 351 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 3: tablespoons of reduced salt soy sauce and a couple of 352 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 3: tablespoons of curry powder. Now Mum swears by this is 353 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 3: always the brand that I've used. It's not sponsored at all. 354 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 3: The King's Curry Powder A big fan of that one. 355 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: Mom always uses that one. So mix that through the 356 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 3: soy sauce and the curry powder and it's a really 357 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 3: lean bas so rather than dumping in it like a 358 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 3: bottle of sauce that most people do for a stir fry. 359 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 3: Just the combination of the soy sauce and curry powder together, 360 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 3: it sounds really weird. It is a really, really lovely 361 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 3: base to add so much flavor to the noodle based dish. 362 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: Serve that into bowls, split it between your veggies, your mince, 363 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 3: and your noodles, and then scramble up a couple of 364 00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 3: eggs in a separate pan. Add a little bit of 365 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 3: scrambled eggs to the top of each portion, a good 366 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 3: squeeze of fresh lime, a couple of nuts if you like, 367 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: like some peanuts or some roasted cashews, and a couple 368 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 3: of just slices of like a long red chili if 369 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 3: you like a little bit spicy. If the kids don't 370 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: like spicy, emit the chili. It doesn't really matter. But 371 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 3: it's a really lean recipe. You can play with how 372 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: much or how little carbs you make, and you can 373 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: also play with how lean The turkey mints or whatever 374 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 3: type of mints that you're using as well is in there. 375 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 3: You can throw whatever veggies you like in there, and 376 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 3: like I said, the sauce wise, it's very lean compared 377 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 3: to a few to use a bottle sauce in another 378 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 3: type of stir fry mix as well, So just really 379 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: watch the amount of salt that you're putting in from 380 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 3: the soy sauce. Always recommend like a lower salt variety there. 381 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 3: But it's super super tasty between the curry power of 382 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 3: the eggs, a lime the soy sauce. It's one of 383 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 3: my favorite sort of winter warming filling recipes. 384 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had to when I listen to you your argument, 385 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: and you fought hard. It's a really well balanced meal, 386 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: and I think one of the things we talked about 387 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: was making sure the minces are lean, so you do 388 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: have to be careful. Like obviously there's extra beef mince, 389 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: which is quite expensive. Chicken mince is surprisingly lean, even 390 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: though they don't label the nutritionals on it. With turkey mints, 391 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: you've got to make sure you get the extra lean one. 392 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: But you can get also extra leine pork, which is 393 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: my choice when I'm doing Asian meals or Sancho bao, 394 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: So just do a quick check of that because the 395 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: audi minces are often not labeled and off and not lean, 396 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: so you certainly it pays to sort of get the 397 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: extra lean one when making a mixed dish like that, 398 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: And the great thing for me Land is you can 399 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: chuck as many extra veggies in as you like, so 400 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: it's a good one. 401 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: We'll put that up on our instaff all right. 402 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: Well, that's it for another midweek motivational episode of the 403 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: Nutrition Couch.
