While generary can be a cruisy 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: period when you have plenty of time to cook healthy 4 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: meals and exercise daily, let's be honest. When school and 5 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,319 Speaker 1: work goes back, life is generally pretty crazy. So to 6 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: help keep you ahead of things this year, today we 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: chat all the ways you can automate your nutrition in 8 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five and even your exercise so that it 9 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: is easy to eat well and exercise no matter how 10 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: busy your life gets. 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 2: Hi, I'm Susie Burrow and I'm Leon Mood, and. 12 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: Together we bring you The Nutrition gat the weekly podcast 13 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: that keeps you up to date on everything you need 14 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,959 Speaker 1: to know in the world of nutrition, as well as 15 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: making diet and exercise easier. We thought it was time 16 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: to chat cafe breakfasts. We found some tasty veggie chips 17 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 1: you're gonna love, and our listener question is all about 18 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: the best drinks for hydration. 19 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 2: This summer, So Leanne. 20 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: We are right in the summer holidays, which is always 21 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: a really nice time. It's the time when we can 22 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: kind of reset a little bit and enjoy some time 23 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: with family. We don't necessarily have to get up so early, 24 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: and we've got a lot more time to perhaps cook 25 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: at home and prepare meals. But let's be honest, the 26 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: reality is that most of us live in a vortex 27 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: of overscheduled lives, in which by the time it gets 28 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: to about February two, you're thinking, I'm back in the 29 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: whirlwind and thinking do I need to order Uber Eats 30 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: because I haven't done my meal prep. So I thought 31 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: it was a really good time to chat about the 32 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: ways to automate your nutrition, because when I think about 33 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: the way I manage my family's nutrition, and often I 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: reflect on it when I'm talking to my own clients, 35 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: because they'll talk about needing to come home and make 36 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: a dinner, or running out of ingredients. 37 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 2: Or not knowing what to throw together. And what I've 38 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: realized is that myself, because time is such a precious. 39 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: Resource, I actually don't spend a lot of time on 40 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: meal prep. Surprisingly, I really minimize the amount of time 41 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: I spend cooking in general, planning food shop. And I 42 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: thought maybe it would be useful for some of our 43 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: listeners to hear the ways that we make eating healthy easy, 44 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: because I know actually that you are a massive meal prepper. 45 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: I now on your Instagram you'll often put your sort 46 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: of five or six days or several meals that you'll 47 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: do your meal prep. Have you found that since you've 48 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: had the two little girls, like under two, under three? 49 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 2: I think, have you always meal prep like that? 50 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: Or is that something you've just done since you've been 51 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: more chaotic with the girls. 52 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 3: I've always mil prep like that because the reality is, 53 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 3: I've been coaching as a dietician for what's probably six 54 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 3: years now, and since I left the hospital. It was 55 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: all well and good when I didn't have the girls 56 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: and I worked my normal hospital job, my normal hours. 57 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 3: I could just come home and cook dinner, you know, 58 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 3: a normal time, got a gym after work. It was 59 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 3: all fine. But the reality is now that I have 60 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 3: to work around my client schedules as well. So often 61 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 3: my clients want to do calls at five pm, six pm, 62 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 3: and seven pm, like often on a Monday and a 63 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: Thursday night. I'm basically fully booked from five to seven 64 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 3: or eight pm. So when I come off at the 65 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: back of say four hours of client coaching calls, last 66 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 3: thing I want to do is cook dinner at eight 67 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 3: pm at night, so I need to have something that's 68 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 3: ready to go that's easy, and I met meal prep 69 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 3: for my girls as well. Like i'd say three or 70 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: four days of the week, the girls eat from my 71 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: freezer and I make meatballs in batches. I do beef 72 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 3: and veggie meatballs. I do salmon, potato, and dial ones. 73 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: I do chicken, lentil and broccoli meatballs, So they'll have 74 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 3: a couple of different meatballs. They'll have even sweet potato chips. 75 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 3: I cut them up, I roast them in the oven, 76 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 3: and I bag them into like snaplog bags and I 77 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 3: put them in the freezer. I do different types of veggies, 78 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 3: like I do frozen peas. I'll do a bit of 79 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 3: fresh cucumber, a bit of fresh fruit. Might make some 80 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: pasta fresh, but that only takes five or ten minutes. 81 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: So even my girl's benefit from meal prep as well, 82 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: because I just don't have the time to cook every 83 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 3: single night, and I don't have just the ability because 84 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 3: of what I do. So meal preps always something that's 85 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 3: worked for me. It's always something i've done probably for 86 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 3: the last you know, six to ten years. But even 87 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: while I was working at the hospital, I would often 88 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 3: take some form of meal prep for breakfast or lunch, 89 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 3: because I was never someone that was hungry when I 90 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: first woke up. I'd often get hungry around sort of 91 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: eight or nine o'clock, so i'd often maybe have a 92 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: cup of tea when I woke up. I'd drive into work. 93 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 3: I used to start at the hospital at seven thirty. 94 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 3: I like to start early and leave that a little 95 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,839 Speaker 3: bit earlier, so i'd get to work, I'd get into 96 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 3: my emails, look at my client list for the day 97 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: that I might eat my breakfast at my desk at 98 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: work while I was prepping for you know, the new 99 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 3: clients for the day or getting ready for clinic for 100 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 3: the day. So I've always sort of been a meal prepper, 101 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 3: but not all of my meals for these days. I 102 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 3: think i'd probably prep fifty percent of the meals for 103 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 3: the week, and it might not be prepping the entire meal. 104 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 3: It might just be pre marinating some of the meat 105 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 3: and cooking that and having that ready to go, or 106 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 3: chopping up some potatoes, or doing a big tray of 107 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 3: roasted veggies which I can then throw into my meals 108 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 3: for the rest of the week. So I'm a massive 109 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 3: fan of meal prep. I try to encourage my clients 110 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 3: to do it. I certainly do have clients that don't 111 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 3: love it, like they prefer to cook fresh every night, 112 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: And there's no right or wrong, but when the reality 113 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 3: is that you're not able to from a time constraint, 114 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,559 Speaker 3: I do feel like it's a really really easy health 115 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 3: hack for lack of a better word. 116 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think that first of all, what we 117 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: want to say today is there's no rules with this. 118 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 3: For us. 119 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: It's about generating a whole lot of ideas and you 120 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 1: can pick and choose what suits you. I am less 121 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: of a meal prepper unless I'm doing what i'd call 122 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: a significant meal. So when I'm breaking down the family's 123 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: meal preferences for the week, and I have to be honest, 124 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: I do, and probably my entire life have kind of 125 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 1: eaten the same thing on similar nights each week. Now, 126 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: there's no judgment. If you're someone who likes to have 127 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: a different meal every night, that's fine. Everyone's personality is different. 128 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: But myself, I tend to be fairly routine with the 129 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: sort of run of meals through the week because I 130 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: find that helps my shopping because, for example, I know, 131 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: on say Mondays, we have fish on Tuesday, we have 132 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: lean sausages. On Wednesday, we have a mince dish like Snitzels. 133 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: Like that kind of flow means that when I do 134 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: go to the supermarket, I know exactly what protein to 135 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: buy every time. I don't have to think about it, 136 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: which again automates it. It makes a bit quicker and even 137 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: better would be if you're happy to do online shopping, 138 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: it will then get delivered each week. Now, the reason 139 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: personally I don'te online shop is that I find it 140 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: frustrating that the online shoppers don't go and pick necessarily 141 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: the freshest fresh produce or the meat. So when I'm 142 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: buying meatly and I'll always go to the back and 143 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: get the one with the longest use by date. The 144 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: same with the fresh produce, and I'm fine, they're not 145 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: discerning with that. Even with bread, like if you look 146 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: on the supermarket, there can be five days difference between 147 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: the use by dates of the bread. You can have 148 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: a bread that's almost out and a bread that's got 149 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: another week on it. So that makes the difference in 150 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: shopping and freshness, and that bothers me with online shoppers 151 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: that you don't get that, so that's why I don't 152 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: do it, but I agree that it can be really 153 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 1: time efficient way of doing it, because yeah, let's be honest, 154 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 1: how much time do we spend in a supermarket? So yeah, 155 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: but in terms of planning out the meals, I'll know 156 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: exactly what I'm getting, so then I don't have to 157 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: think too much when I'm in the supermarket. I literally 158 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: run in and just grab a couple of things that 159 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: I need, and I'm not spending hours perusing eye I 160 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: was thinking what do I need. 161 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: And what do I not? But I if I'm doing 162 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:52,799 Speaker 2: what i'll call a substantial. 163 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: Meal so for the family generally, and I learned this 164 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: very early with young children, they don't care if I've spent. 165 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: An hour preparing a meal or one minute. I couldn't 166 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: care less. 167 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: So I learned early to not waste time on small 168 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 1: children in terms of meal prep. So I'll do mostly 169 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: protein and some sort of salad orveng. So it will 170 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: either be salmon or barra mundy with some air fried 171 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: potato or sweet potato chips and some cut up salad bend, 172 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: or it might be some zucchini and pumpkin mashed kind 173 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: of together, and then some baked tomatoes. So very very simple, 174 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: throw together meals with the protein is probably what my 175 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: kids would have three or four nights a week, and. 176 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 2: They love it. 177 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: They're very happy with that. It's healthy, it's nutritious. You 178 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: don't get extra marks for cooking a whole flash meal, 179 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: especially if you don't enjoy it. Now it's taking away 180 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 1: nothing from people who enjoy meal prep. And if you 181 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: want to make a lovely meal for the family each night, 182 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: good on you. It's just not I don't have time 183 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: to do it, nor do I overly have the interest, 184 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: because food for me is generally work. But if I 185 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 1: am doing what I call a substantial meal, So a 186 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: substantial meal is a meal that requires a number. 187 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: Of steps to put it together. 188 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: So I'm talking like a proper lasagna or spaghetti type 189 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: mintce where you're adding a lot of ingredients to it. 190 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: It requires a certain amount of cookie time. It might 191 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: be a pasta bake, it might be a chicken pie 192 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: like that kind of intense meal. If I do do it, 193 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: that would be when I would do that on the 194 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: weekend and then use it across several meals. So if 195 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm doing a lasagna, mince or a Mexican mince. I'll 196 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: do like a kilo and have it last a couple 197 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: of meals because I'm going to spend that hour or 198 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: two actually doing that kind of meal prep. 199 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: So I think that's the difference. 200 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: Really break it down in the week, how can you 201 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: do those five minute meals? And what I find really 202 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: handing in the supermarkets now luckily, and you are describing 203 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: you make your meat balls, et cetera fantastic, like it's 204 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: always generally better if you make it. They tend to 205 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: be leaner, higher in vegetable content. But again, there are 206 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: very viable options where you don't. 207 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 2: Have to do a lot of prep. 208 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: So you can buy the lean beef patties, you can 209 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: buy the lean sausages. You can get the Coals range 210 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: of shredded lean meat, which is very do. You can 211 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: buy the pre crumb chicken. I know in Harris Farm 212 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: they've got our chicken that's like ninety percent chicken with 213 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: only ten percent crumb. 214 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 2: Like that is a very good quality product. Obviously you pay. 215 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: A bit more when it is better quality, whereas the 216 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: supermarket crumbs are generally only about fifty percent crumb. 217 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: But leanne and I. 218 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: Have discussed several different alternatives to that, which are a 219 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: much higher proportion of fish and chicken and good choices. 220 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: So certainly, do not be scared of utilizing those options. 221 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: Like you can absolutely put some frozen fish in the 222 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: oven with some steam fresh veggies in a bag we've 223 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: again spoken about a few of those, or a salad 224 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: bag with a bit addressing and have a perfectly healthy meal. 225 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: There's nothing to feel guilty about that. 226 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: So I think in terms of automating, the suggestions I 227 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: have are, if you're happy to online shop at least Staples, 228 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: that's going to save a significant amount of time. Have 229 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: some key meals that you do on rotation each week 230 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: and map it out so again you don't have that 231 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: mental load of thinking each night what am I doing 232 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: for dinner? 233 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: Know the quick and easy meals. 234 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 1: Know that if you haven't had time to prepare anything 235 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: at all, if you pick up a barbecue chicken and 236 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: a pune of tomatoes, you're going to be on the 237 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: right track. Like it can be that simple, and certainly 238 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: that's a very cost effective way of doing it. The 239 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: other things I do with some of my clients in 240 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: terms of automating is getting snacks, foods, delivered to work, 241 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 1: or utilizing that work lunch break to duck down to 242 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,319 Speaker 1: the woolies and coals and get the food, so you're 243 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: not then adding on shopping onto your schedule after work 244 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: or on the weekends when you're already busy. Actually utilizing 245 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: that lunch break which many people won't even take, but 246 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: you can literally walk your coals and mollies, get some 247 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: steps up each day, and get a couple of nights 248 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: of dinners or at least your snacks. And then for 249 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: office workers who are particularly time poor, I would say, 250 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: have your snacks like delivered to work for the week. 251 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: So you might order your protein bars, you might order 252 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 1: your yogurts, you might order your cheese and crackers, you 253 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: might order some nuts and fresh fruit. And it might 254 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: cost you twenty dollars, but you're going to have snacks 255 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: for a week that are healthy at work, rather than 256 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 1: getting to three o'clock each day and feeling like I'm starving. 257 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: So that can work really well for office spased people 258 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: and those who travel a lot for work, I really 259 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: encourage them to use those metro coals and mollies as 260 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: the baseline for food. And I think with exercise, the 261 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 1: key thing to automating it. If you're someone who literally 262 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: has no time to do extra, you've got to get 263 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 1: more of it out in those days. So whether it 264 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: is going and doing the walk and the shopping, work time, 265 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: making sure you're using your lunch break, using the commute 266 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: as your exercise like many people will be on a bus, 267 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: will be on a trade rather than constantly telling yourself 268 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: you're going to pull out another two hours to get 269 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: to the gym, except that that's. 270 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: Probably not going to happen. 271 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 1: But what you can do is hop off the station 272 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: every day one or two earlier and get that extra 273 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: ten twenty minutes in a day. And that is something 274 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: that's sustainable and will automate it so you don't have 275 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: to add more and more onto your already overwhelm schedule. 276 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 3: I love it. And when you're talking about getting meals 277 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 3: to livered, I was never someone who wanted to get 278 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 3: my shopping delivered because like you, I'm really picky with 279 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: a type of produce I get. And this year, the 280 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 3: reality is with two small children and full time work 281 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 3: and a few businesses, I just don't have that opportunity 282 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 3: because if I want to go to the shop MEA 283 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 3: wants to come with me the good coals because it's 284 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: just been redone it's really good. Is a twenty minute 285 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: drive each way, and then if me, it comes with me. 286 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 3: She looks at every flower, every rock on the way in, 287 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: like it takes us fifteen minutes to get into the shops. 288 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 3: Then she wants to look at every single type of cracker. 289 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 3: Then we get to the checkout and she wants to 290 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: scan everything and it's adorable, and yes, I do it, 291 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 3: but it's a two hour round to get to the 292 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 3: zupermarket and back. So we've been doing a lot of 293 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 3: online shops this year. But the downside, like you mentioned, 294 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: is the quality of the produce. Like a few weeks ago, 295 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 3: I basically got chicken breast. It wasn't off, but I 296 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 3: took one smell of it and I said to David, 297 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 3: smell this, and he's like, oh no, that's done. So 298 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 3: that's like twenty kilos of chicken breast I just had 299 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 3: to toss. And I still had to go down to 300 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 3: my local woolors, which isn't good. Like the produce is 301 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 3: terrible that it's just not good, So I tend not 302 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 3: to go there. I only go there if I'm desperate. 303 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 3: So I had to go down and restock up some protein. 304 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 3: And then this week I ordered four salad kits and 305 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 3: that was supposed to get David and I threw lunches 306 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 3: for the Wig. I got some salmon breasts, I got 307 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 3: some tofu, I got some tins of tuna and chickpeas, 308 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 3: and I was just going to make some really fresh, 309 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 3: easy salads and proteins for the Wig. And the four 310 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: salad kits I got Suzie. This is last weekend, so say, 311 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. The example was like the twentieth or 312 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 3: whatever whatever date it was. Two of the salad kits 313 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 3: went off on the twentieth and two went off on 314 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 3: the twenty first. And if anyone uses salad kits regularly, 315 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 3: but the time it hits use by date, it's done. 316 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 3: Like they're generally, I don't buy a salad kit unless 317 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 3: I've got at least four to five days on it, 318 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 3: because they're not as fresh as what they think, like 319 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: like it says, oh you can use it to that date. No, 320 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 3: they generally go off for a day or two earlier. So 321 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 3: that's full bags of stuff. It's like twenty two lolls. Again, 322 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 3: I just had to bit because I was like, I 323 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 3: can't use these they're discussing. They're already off and it's 324 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 3: really frustrating because you've seen the people who do the 325 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 3: shopping like they're just kids, they're teenagers. They're walking around 326 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 3: and I think they've been told to grab the shortest produce, 327 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 3: like the shortest dates, to make sure that the supermarkets 328 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 3: don't lose that money. I'm sure that that's what they've 329 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: been told. It's annoying. 330 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 1: It's actually a massive issue and it's something that needs 331 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: to be addressed by supermarkets because at my local, those 332 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: young kids literally bowl you over with their shopping charts 333 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: to fill them up quickly. They're on a time thing. 334 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: But again I would agree they should be being told 335 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: to go to the back. 336 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: Now. The other thing is did you bring them up 337 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 2: and get a refund? Didn't? 338 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 3: I should have? 339 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: I didn't because it's. 340 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: Actually very easy on both Coals and Woolies automated to 341 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: just claim the refund and they do pay it straight away. 342 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 3: Isn't it. I did not know that. 343 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, so it's actually easy. Because I had one 344 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 1: time where my mints didn't come. I ordered the extra 345 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: le mints. They just didn't send it, and I always 346 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: tick on the list don't replace it with other products, 347 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: because I don't wanted to put some crap in there that. 348 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 2: I don't want. 349 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: And when I rang and it just said on automation, 350 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: I can't even it was probably Woolies. I would have 351 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 1: bought mints from Woolies and it said if you haven't 352 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: received a product, press one and they instantly refunded it. 353 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: So they have automated that. Quite simple. So I would 354 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: definitely look into that on your account. But again, anyone 355 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: who works at Colson wool Worse, you need to fix 356 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: up that because it's a reason that I don't do 357 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: online shopping for fresh produce, and it's a widespread issue. 358 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 2: They should absolutely be being. 359 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: Taught to be pulling stuff with the longest use by 360 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: date because people are doing online shopping to make their 361 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: life easier. So it's a real, actually, really valid point. 362 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: Who I might actually email the nutritionist at Woolies and 363 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: bring that to her attention. I'm sure it's an issue 364 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: for many online shoppers. But what I do do now, 365 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: things like bottled water, the cat litter, the cat food, 366 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: stuff like that that you need regularly, and there's nothing 367 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: worse than running out of it and then you have 368 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: to make another trip to Woolies and spend the fifty 369 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: bucks on all the other stuff. I do definitely get 370 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: that delivered, and I get quite a lot of cleaning 371 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: products now delivered from Amazon. If you've got Amazon Online 372 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: Prime for food delivery, it can be there the next 373 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: day and it's often the cheapest, much cheaper compared to supermarkets. 374 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: So that's the kind of logistical stuff I would suggest 375 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: you really look into now. The things that cause irritation 376 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: the running out of the pet food, not having you know, 377 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: running out of salad stuff each day, Like how do 378 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: you map the week out to get you to at 379 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: least Thursday without having to go to a supermarket or shop. 380 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: You will immediately free up at least an hour if 381 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: not to, you'll eliminate much stress and you'll probably eat 382 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: better as a result. 383 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the other big thing that I like to 384 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 3: automat is I use most locoocas so much, even in summer, 385 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: Like I do big Mexican like chicken, tomatoes, Capsican beans 386 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 3: in there that I just shred the chicken and then 387 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 3: I can freeze that and use that as Nacho's use 388 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 3: that in a big salad bowl. I can use that 389 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 3: in soft tacos like there's so many options. And I 390 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 3: do the same thing with mints. I might put a big, 391 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 3: you know, a bit of pork or lamb in there 392 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: and then do that shredded mint and then put just 393 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: the veggies in there as well. So I really love 394 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 3: a slow cookie. You get hips and meals out of it. 395 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 3: You can freeze. Sometimes I just do the protein. I 396 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 3: throw in, you know, a thing of pork or something, 397 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 3: and I'll put some sauce in there, some veggies in there, 398 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 3: and then I'll decide what sort of carbs or you 399 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: know how I want to serve that later on. So absolutely, 400 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 3: utilizing things like the slow cooker and the air fry 401 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 3: for me is a great automation thing as well because 402 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 3: it just cooks things so quickly. And in Queensland it's 403 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 3: so hot in summer that you turn the oven on, 404 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 3: the entire kitchen heats up, or you need to put 405 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 3: the aircorn on when you turn the oven on. So 406 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 3: I really think that an air fry is a really 407 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 3: good hack as well. And David and I just had 408 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 3: our wedding anniversary susin. He said, well, what do you 409 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 3: want for an anniversary present? And I was like, I 410 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 3: want a new air fry. But we've just got the 411 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 3: new the duel basket one, so I'm very excited. And 412 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 3: I put it on my Instagram and everyone was like, 413 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 3: give us the review, tell us how it was, So 414 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 3: I'll have to let people know. But I'm really excited 415 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 3: to have the dual ones so I can actually put 416 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 3: protein in one and some veggies in the other one 417 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 3: because at the moment we've only got the one air 418 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 3: fry with the one basket. So yeah, I'm very excited. 419 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: Well, you need always need two draws, even I've got 420 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 1: two draws. I've just got the Kmart one and I 421 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: actually bought it because my nanny asks for it because 422 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: she likes it to do the kid's fish, which is 423 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: actually good because you don't get the smell of fish 424 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: throughout the house. But I've always had two baskets. You 425 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: got to have two because they're not very big. And 426 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: I've done the foreaters that's my favorite one. You just 427 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,959 Speaker 1: get the lean chicken tenderloins and chuck it straight in 428 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 1: with the Mexican seasoning on one side and on the 429 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 1: other the cut up veggies and you've got for heaters 430 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: in twenty minutes, like so easy. So yeah, I don't 431 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: use it a lot, but it's very good when I 432 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: need it, So yeah, No, definitely two baskets in do. 433 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 3: You put what do you put in your basket, like 434 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: like baking paper or something just to line it? Do 435 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 3: you put something in it to line and you just 436 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 3: throw the chicken in? 437 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: My nanny puts baking paper, but I don't. I just 438 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: put a bit of olive oil and then. 439 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 3: Just wash the basket out. 440 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's like I'm quite moist, you know what 441 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,959 Speaker 1: I mean, Like with if I'm doing the Mexican seasoning 442 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: with a bit of water and pouring it over. Then 443 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: if it's fish, I'll put baking paper because I don't 444 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: necessarily want it all to get stuck, but actually got 445 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: quite often. I'll just put a bit of oil on it. Okay, look, yeah, 446 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: very handy. All right on to breakfast. 447 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 3: Land, right, cafe breakfasts. This is probably something that Susie 448 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 3: and I talk about a lot. I'm sure we've covered 449 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 3: it on the podcast before. We have these conversations with 450 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: clients all the time. But I basically say to my 451 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: clients anytime you eat out at a cafe, unless you 452 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 3: were literally just getting two poached eggshibit, a spinach and 453 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: a piece of toast, most things off the breakfast or brunchmen, 454 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: you were easily you know, six hundred to one thousand calories. 455 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 3: Like we went to a brunch place the other day, Susie. 456 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 3: They had it was like a fried chicken croissant. I 457 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 3: can't remember what they called it, but it was literally 458 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 3: like fried chicken on a croissant. And I was like wow. 459 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 3: And then they also had deep fried like mars bar 460 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 3: french toasts. I was like wow, Like it's honestly, some 461 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 3: of the things were like dessert for breakfast. It was 462 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,239 Speaker 3: just crazy. And then when you think about breakfast, not 463 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 3: only do most people get the meal, they'll get a 464 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 3: gigantic smoothie, they'll have a big coffee or they'll have 465 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 3: a second big coffee, and just forgetting that, it all 466 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 3: adds up. And then if you go home for your 467 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 3: normal lunch, you snacks in your normal dinner. That's how 468 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 3: we can kind of blow out some of the calories 469 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 3: for the day. So it's sort of trying to make 470 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 3: some of those smarter choices, particularly when the goal is 471 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: fat loss, or if you're going out. A lot of 472 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,639 Speaker 3: my clients say, oh, you know, I'm meeting a friend 473 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 3: for say brunch or something. I'll say great, what time. 474 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 3: They're like, oh, we're meeting at ten. I know that 475 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 3: by the time they've got there, they've chit chatter, they've 476 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 3: ordered up the menu, by the time the food comes, 477 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 3: it's closer to eleven o'clock. So we can be quite 478 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 3: smart and build them more of a brunch option where 479 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 3: we can sort of absorb the breakfast and the lunch 480 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 3: calories together. So if we're having a bit of a 481 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 3: heavier meal for a brunch, it's not going to make 482 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: that much of an impact from a fat loss perspective. 483 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 3: But there are certainly better options on cafe menus and 484 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 3: some not so great options on cafe menus. But the 485 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 3: big one that trips up a lot of my clients, 486 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 3: Susie is thinking that healthy equals fat loss, because I 487 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: see so many clients and they go, no, no, I'm good, 488 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 3: I don't need help with the menu. I'm just going 489 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 3: to get the nourish bowl. And that to me, it's 490 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 3: always like the vegan bowl or the nourish bowl. I'm 491 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 3: always like, no, that's easily eight hundred calories, and that's 492 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 3: cool if that's what you want to do, if that's 493 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 3: a healthy choice for you, great, But the reality is 494 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 3: that a lot of those nourish bowls, a lot of 495 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 3: those vegan bowls, are very high calorie, even though they're 496 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: filled with really good quality products. So and for most 497 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 3: people trying to achieve fat loss, it's just far too 498 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 3: many calories. So I think it's really important to be 499 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 3: reading the ingredients on the menus, not just looking and saying, oh, 500 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 3: it's a healthy noush bowl or oh, it's a vegetarian 501 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 3: big breakfast, Because even though it might be a vegetarian 502 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 3: big breakfast, by the time you add up two eggs, 503 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 3: two bits of toasts, a massive slab of halloomi, some mushrooms, 504 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: a hash brown, what else are they given? Like half 505 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 3: an avocado that can again be eight hundred to one 506 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 3: thousand calories. Is it vegetarian, yes, Is it healthy? Probably yes? 507 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 3: Is it appropriate I fat loss? Probably no for the 508 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: majority of people, unless you're living in a quite large 509 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 3: body or you're like a super athlete. So I think 510 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 3: it's just important to be wary of portion sizes and 511 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 3: all the little extras that come in as well, because 512 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: you know, how often do people say, oh, I'm going 513 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,959 Speaker 3: to have the avocado toast and then we're like, oh, 514 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 3: it doesn't have protein. So they're like, cool, I'll out 515 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 3: of side of bacon or I'll out of side of 516 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 3: eggs to that. But the avocado's toast itself is like 517 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 3: six seven hundred calories, and you're adding bacon onto it, 518 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 3: then you've got an easy thousand calorie meals. So it's 519 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 3: just I think important to break down the ingredients in 520 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 3: some of these breakfast options. When the goal is fat lost, 521 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 3: When the goal is just health and maintaining, it's not 522 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 3: so much of an issue. But what I find that 523 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 3: lately most cafes and breakfasts these days, even in Brisbane, 524 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 3: are charging you know, twenty five dollars upwards. You go 525 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 3: out with a friend, you might have two breakfasts and 526 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 3: two coffees. That's easily fifty sixty dollars. So I feel like, 527 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 3: because the prices have risen, cafes feel like they have 528 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: to give more value, and I feel like the size 529 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 3: of breakfast, particularly in cafes, it's just enormous these days 530 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 3: like half of them I could probably share. I do 531 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 3: like I don't get my kids meals. There only three 532 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,159 Speaker 3: and not even one and a half, so there are 533 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 3: any little but David and I will get a breakfast 534 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 3: each and we'll just split it with them because it's 535 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 3: honestly so much food and the portion sizes are so 536 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 3: huge that I just feel like, yeah, we just need 537 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 3: to be really conscious of that because it can blow 538 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 3: the budget quite easily. 539 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: Well, what prompted me to bring this out was a 540 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: gorgeous kind of mind who has actually lost a lot 541 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 1: of weight. 542 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 2: Set me this gorgeous breakfast picture this morning. 543 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 1: I sent it to Lianne because it's absolutely studying look 544 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: like art. 545 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: So it's got read you. 546 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: It's on the plate, there's like this sort of saute 547 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: kale and spinach. Then it's got some mushrooms and it's 548 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: got some sort of white cheese which is possibly fetter, 549 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: maybe goats cheese. Then it's got some pickled vegetables mashed pumpkin, 550 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 1: sweet potato, roasted beetroot, and two eggs on the top. 551 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: There's also a sprinkle of nuts, pepeda seeds, and I 552 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: think dooker. Now when I looked at it this morning. 553 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 1: I almost had a heart attack. I was like, oh 554 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 1: my god, that is enormous, Like she was showing me 555 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 1: how healthy it was it I was thinking, oh my god, 556 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: I reckon, that's at least six hundred, if not eight 557 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 1: hundred calories. 558 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 3: Mostly bench though it is, but like it's. 559 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: Still I reckon that that's cream like pumpkin. It's cooked 560 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: in heaps of oil. Like she had toast as well 561 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: and a coffee scared, and I was like, oh. 562 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 2: My god, Oh my god. So that's why I thought 563 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 2: we have to talk about cafe breakfast. 564 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 1: Because generally speaking, I would say that a substantial plate. 565 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 2: At a cafe is two meals, whether it is a 566 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 2: big cookup like that, whether it's pancakes, whether it's. 567 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: Bahad eggs, sort of all hot breakfast a site, they're 568 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: basically two meals in calories. Like they're not three four 569 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: hundred calories, they are like eight hundred even a thousand. 570 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 1: So keep in mind they're adding often fat from the 571 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: avocado and the cheese. 572 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 2: If they're doing. 573 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: Nuts and things as well, they're cooking all those things 574 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: in oil. Like they are high calorie foods and sure healthy, 575 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: but definitely most women listening, or we'll have to split 576 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: a big cafe breakfast with a friend. Because, as Leanne described, 577 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: because she said to me, what would you have ordered? 578 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: And I said I would have had well, I said, 579 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: I think it's beautiful. I probably I can see why 580 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: you ordered it. 581 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 2: It's nice. But it is two meals, like you won't 582 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 2: need lunch. 583 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: So if I was ordering something more calorie controller, i'd 584 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 1: go two eggs, finished tomato, mushrooms and then maybe like 585 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: Avo or Fetter. But keep in mind Avo they'll serve 586 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: a half and you pay a lot for it, like 587 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 1: you're talking about how muchly and the sides can be 588 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 1: seven eight dollars each. If I take the boys to 589 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: breakfast and we don't have a big meal, just say 590 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: some coffees, they'll get a kid's meal. Chris and I 591 00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: might share something like eighty dollars. And that's not even indulgent, 592 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: like it's so expensive, so you will get a big 593 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: serve of Avo. 594 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 2: It's massive. So yeah, just keep in mind if you are. 595 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: Having that kind of indulgent breakfast at a gorgeous place, 596 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: it is two serves, and you might be better just 597 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: to share with a friend. But if you want to 598 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: keep it calorie controlled. It's like two eggs, no bacon, 599 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: fetter or a little bit of avocado, plain veggie side, 600 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: So like mushroom, spinach, tomato, and then just one slice 601 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: of toast with sour dough. It's not overly healthy. It's 602 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,239 Speaker 1: usually really thick and one single piece will be two 603 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: breads at least, so you've really got to sort of 604 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: cut it right down like that, or accept you're having 605 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: a more indulgent meal. Go and enjoy it, but make 606 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: sure it's two serves, or share with someone else, and yeah, 607 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: just be mindful. Then things like pancakes and AVO toasts 608 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: and as sydeballs and unfortunately not healthy. A sydeballs packful 609 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: of sugar. Pancakes are packful of calves, and AVO toast 610 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: is mostly fat with some sour dough. There's no protein 611 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: there and usually way too much carves. So don't kid 612 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: yourself that they're actually healthy. They're pretty indulgent meals, all right. 613 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 3: Well to change, bring us onto these delicious mushroom chips 614 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 3: that I found. 615 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 2: Doesn't sound delicious mushroom chips. I don't know. Can you 616 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 2: put a better spit on it? 617 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 3: Yeah? I just want to get back to that segment 618 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 3: really quickly and just say the most important message. What 619 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 3: we're trying to say is that healthy can be different 620 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: to fat loss. Like a lot of these options that 621 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 3: we're talking about can be healthy. They can have nutritious. 622 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 2: Choices, even weight control. 623 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 3: Yes, but if your goal is weight control or fat loss, just. 624 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 2: Even weight controller. We have to be clear. 625 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 1: These are big meals. They're double meal size that you know. 626 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: I think it's not specifically fat loss, it's just being healthy. 627 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 1: Keep in mind that when you have a meal like 628 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 1: that out similar to a restaurant meal, they're two meals, 629 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: not one unless you do very healthy skimming it no bacon, 630 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 1: you know. 631 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 3: Or you're utilizing it as a brunch option. You're not 632 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 3: having a breakfast and then going or having that then 633 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 3: coming back for lunch. 634 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 635 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 3: So it's just understanding the portions that work well for 636 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: your body. And if that confuses you, it's probably time 637 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 3: to touch base of the diet issue. You can actually 638 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 3: run you through what sort of portions work really well 639 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 3: for your body. But onto our market find of the wicket. Today, 640 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 3: we've got these delicious I'm obsessed with these SUSI I 641 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 3: think they're so good. I love mushrooms, but I've also 642 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 3: got some clients that don't like mushrooms, like if I 643 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 3: put mushrooms into their recipes, like I can't eat that. 644 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 3: I'm not a mushroom person. But they love these, and 645 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 3: I think it's the flavoring on them. They're so delicious. 646 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 3: They're the dj and A Shataki mushroom crists, so they're 647 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 3: lightly cooked and seasoned. They're basically mushroom chips essentially. They're 648 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 3: so they're a good way to get in some extra 649 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 3: veggies and the seasoning on them is so good. Even me, 650 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 3: I ate them, and like, she's a normal nearly three 651 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 3: year old toddler who's, you know, a bit picky with foods, 652 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 3: as most are, And she was like, what's that, Mummy? 653 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 3: Can I try? And then she was like ooh yum. 654 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 3: Granted she was doing most of the licking of the seasoning, 655 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,199 Speaker 3: not too much of the eating the mushroom part of it, 656 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 3: but it was good exposure for her overall. So these 657 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 3: are generally in coals and wollwas in the health food section. 658 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 3: They're also sold I think it's some costcos as well, 659 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 3: and they are also available in a lot of like 660 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 3: the online health food shops as well. They have a 661 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 3: whole range. They've got mushroom chips, they've got broccoli ones, 662 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 3: they've got beetroot ones. The beetroot ones are really nice too. 663 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 3: And I believe if we've talked about that, there's like 664 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 3: a protein at a Marmaie range. I think we did 665 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 3: that many months ago as well. That's a really good 666 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 3: one from a protein and a fiber perspective. It's really 667 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: crunchy some of the lake greams they do, and they 668 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 3: basically just you know, like they're roasted chips, which are 669 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: pretty good. So they retail at these ones are at 670 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 3: wools for six dollars for a sixty five gram pack, 671 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 3: so it's a smaller pack and you are paying for 672 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 3: I guess, a better quality product. And obviously it's a 673 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 3: vegetable as well, so it's going to be far more 674 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 3: expensive than what like a normal potato chip is. So 675 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 3: it's one of those instances where you are paying for quality, 676 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 3: you are paying for something that is a better option. 677 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 3: And we do know that a lot of our listeners 678 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 3: they like some of those better choices, so we thought 679 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 3: we'd bring it to the potty today. Because we're both 680 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,560 Speaker 3: a big fan of it nutritionally but also taste wines 681 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 3: as well. So a bag of them a serving size. 682 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,959 Speaker 3: Let me just double checks the nutrition label. There's two 683 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 3: point two servings per bag, so serving size is about 684 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 3: thirty grams, and that's that's quite a good amount because 685 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 3: the mushrooms are actually quite big. So ingredient wise, it's 686 00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: seventy five percent shaittaki mushrooms with vegetable oil, maltose, sea salt, 687 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 3: yeast extract, spices, and natural flavor. So it's essentially some 688 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 3: mushrooms with some oil, some spices, and some herbs, and 689 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 3: like I said that, the seasoning is actually quite delicious. 690 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 3: And then per serving nutrition information panel wise, we've got 691 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 3: five hundred and thirty killer jools, which is roughly about 692 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty calories, one point eight grams of protein, 693 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 3: six grams of fat, twelve point eight grams of carbohydrate, 694 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 3: eight grams of dietary fiber. That's whopping, Like eight grams 695 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 3: of dietary fiber is huge, and only one hundred and 696 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 3: forty milligrams of sodium, which is actually quite low on 697 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 3: a like a saltier tasting products, like you know, it's 698 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 3: quite flavorsome the product, so I actually thought the sodium 699 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 3: content was quite good. But the serving size is small 700 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 3: at thirty grams, so but it's small but substantial. Like 701 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 3: I thought that thirty grams was actually a nice little, 702 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 3: you know, addition, and I sort of have a couple 703 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 3: in the afternoon with a bit of a high protein 704 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: yoga or maybe some cheese and crackers or something. So 705 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 3: I just think these are a nice little way to 706 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 3: add in some extra veggies. Have you tried the mushroom 707 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 3: I know you're a fan of the other ranges of 708 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 3: the veggie chips, but if you tried the mushroom ones, 709 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 3: you're not a huge mushroom person, are you. Oh? 710 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: I don't mind them if they're subtle and like cooked 711 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: in butter like that's nice. No, I do use mushoes 712 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: in cooking, like I'll always put it through my mints 713 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: or I don't love them as much as you do. 714 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't buy the mushroom chips, but I do 715 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: think it's a great brand, and I think some they've 716 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: got a whole range. They've got the brocoli ones and 717 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: you know, we did I think was it the seeded 718 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: mixes we did of them. 719 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, the protein, the atamamie, theamae. 720 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 2: And the pe mix. 721 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 722 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: So I think that just different strokes for different folks. 723 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: But I think that they do some really good products. 724 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: You do pay for them. 725 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: They're kind of that boutique range, so if you do 726 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: see them on salored stuck up then but I think, yeah, 727 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: they are certainly a healthier option and you're getting a 728 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: lot more nutrition from them. And yeah, if you're a Marmee, 729 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 1: your Marmae fan and love MUSHes like they're going to 730 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 1: really give you that mouthfeel that the nutcho cheese cecs 731 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: will without all the fat calories and MSG, so go 732 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: for it. 733 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 3: Amazing all right, And then our final listener question for 734 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,719 Speaker 3: the week, I'll round out the potty today, even though 735 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 3: it's your potty, I'll take over. And this is a 736 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 3: good one for summer. Is coconut water a good choice 737 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: to keep as hydrated in summer? So we went through 738 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 3: a coconut phase what many many years ago go where 739 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,719 Speaker 3: everybody was swearing blind by the coconut oil. We debunk 740 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 3: that as a healthy choice. We know the best oil 741 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 3: to have and what has the most researchers extraversion olive oil, 742 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 3: particularly austrain if you can get it, just because it's 743 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 3: better quality. But I don't mind coconut water, Like I 744 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 3: do have a lot of clients, particularly those who might 745 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 3: work outside, say as like a pe teacher or who 746 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 3: has a very active job or maybe some sort of 747 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 3: you know, labor intensive job. I don't mind coconut water. 748 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 3: There's some good electrolytes in there. A lot of the 749 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 3: brands are no added sugar. Yes, there's a bit of 750 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 3: natural sugar in there, but I do think if you're 751 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 3: using that from a hydration perspective, some sugar and some 752 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,479 Speaker 3: carb isn't a bad thing. Like I've had clients who are, 753 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 3: you know, training for half marathons. They're out on a 754 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 3: twenty k run on the weekend. That's not my thing, 755 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 3: but they love it, and you know, they'll go for 756 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 3: like the low sugar Power Aid or the low sugar Gatorade, 757 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 3: and I say to them, no, you actually need the carb. 758 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 3: You need the sugar because you're trying to not just 759 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 3: rehydrate the body, but actually put some of the calories 760 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 3: and some of the energy back in. Because if you're 761 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 3: going for a two three hour run, your body can't 762 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: store that much energy. You actually need to have a 763 00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 3: bit of a top up as you run. Your body 764 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 3: only stores about an hour's worth of glucken. So I 765 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 3: think coconut water can be a good hydrating option for 766 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 3: those who are really heavy or salty sweaters, or even 767 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: if you're just a bit sick of water, like sometimes 768 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 3: like water is great, Like we were always going to 769 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 3: advocate water first, but you know, sometimes people do just 770 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 3: get that little bit bored of it. So I don't 771 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 3: think that there's anything wrong with coconut water. I love 772 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 3: freezing at a really good tip. When I had my 773 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 3: first baby, Meal, she was a summer baby. Her birthday's 774 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 3: December the twenty seventh, and obviously I was like labor 775 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 3: all through summer. I was doing all the curb walking 776 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 3: to try and get her out, and she'll still like 777 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 3: five days over. It's horrible in summer. But my midwife 778 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 3: said to me, why don't you freeze some coconut water 779 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 3: in like little ice cube trays and just stuck on 780 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 3: that through labor. Like she was like, that's a really 781 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,479 Speaker 3: good idea. A lot of women do that with summer babies, 782 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 3: So freezing coconut water into ice cube trays can make 783 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 3: a really refreshing addition to like a little bit of 784 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 3: a mocktail, a little more like her fruity as summer drink, 785 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 3: or if you made yourself a nice green smoothie, you 786 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 3: could pour her a green juice, you could put some 787 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 3: of the coconut ice cubes in there. I think that 788 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 3: would be a really nice choice. So I'm a big 789 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 3: fan of I don't have anything against it. I think 790 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 3: it's a lower calorie version compared to a lot of 791 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 3: other like smoothies and juices on the market, and you 792 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 3: do get the additional benefits of some you know, some 793 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: key nutrients as well. 794 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not as big a fan as you are. 795 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: I think that it's you know, I think for active people, sure, 796 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: but I have a lot of people sort of adding 797 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: it to smoothies and protein drinks, and it basically is sugar. Like, 798 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: let's be very clear, you're adding sugar in like a serve. 799 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm having a look at how much it's up to 800 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 1: sort of fifteen grams per serve. They do range in amount, 801 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 1: So the lowest sugar variety I can find is the 802 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: raw sea pure natural coconut water. So that one only 803 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,440 Speaker 1: has preserve seven point one grams of sugar, so it's 804 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: still a bit over a table tea spoon, so equivalent, 805 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: say with a juice, you're probably getting closer to twenty. 806 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: So it's certainly a lighter choice, so I could see 807 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:50,719 Speaker 1: why you might urg towards it, But I think if 808 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: you do use it to sort of flavor your smoothies, 809 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of your protein shakes in the summer, 810 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: and you're not overly active, so you're really just using 811 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: it for the sweetness. Really check the labels and go 812 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: for the lowest one you can find, which the best 813 00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: of my knowledge is. 814 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 2: The raw sea. So yeah, I'll often pull it out of. 815 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 1: Smoothies and things because I would rather my clients get 816 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: the sweetness from fruit, you know, if they're adding berries 817 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: in there. But certainly right, you know, for active people, 818 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: people who are doing hiking, who are lean fit, you know, 819 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: it is a lighter version of juices and cordials and 820 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: a better option there. So I think it sort of 821 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 1: sits in the middle, But do be mindful that it 822 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: does contain sugars in some cases added coconut cream too, 823 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: so it's worth checking the labels and look for the 824 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: lighter options. And in terms of electrolytes, we should say 825 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: it's potassium. It's compared to like, I don't think is 826 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: it magnesium too or just potassium. I think it's just 827 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 1: a little bit, yeah, a little bit. It's not the 828 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 1: same as an electrolyte drink. So it's not the same 829 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: as gatorade or powerade. If you're a salty sweater, you 830 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: really need to have that more concentrated electrolytes. And so 831 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,560 Speaker 1: for example, I've got some clients you hike. They use 832 00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: the formulations that you get through sort of bike shops 833 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: and formulations like that. It's certainly not for someone who cramps. 834 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: It's more in general hydration solution when it's potassium. In 835 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: particular that coconut water is high. 836 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:01,640 Speaker 2: All right, LeAnn. 837 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: Well, that brings us to the end of the Nutrition 838 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: Couch for another episode, And if you have not already, 839 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: please check out our website designed by Dietitians, because we 840 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 1: have just launched a whole range of new products there, 841 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: including Creating specifically formulated for women.
