1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,400
Welcome to fit to be real and a little extra.

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:05,500
That's not good today.

3
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:07,800
Yeah, I am on it.

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:10,900
Well, I'm talking about me.

5
00:00:10,900 --> 00:00:14,400
Oh, but yes, together we figured it out.

6
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:16,500
It only took 82 weeks.

7
00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:17,600
Oh, my gosh.

8
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,500
82 weeks.

9
00:00:20,500 --> 00:00:21,500
Weeks.

10
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:23,300
Long weeks.

11
00:00:23,300 --> 00:00:23,800
Okay.

12
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,900
We're talking about meal prepping today

13
00:00:26,900 --> 00:00:31,700
because of the lovely bee claws who we've mentioned before.

14
00:00:31,700 --> 00:00:34,800
She had kind of perked my ears about it.

15
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:35,800
And I was like, you know what?

16
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,000
Everyone needs to talk about meal prepping.

17
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,600
I think people, it's a daunting thing for people

18
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:41,800
because they want to do it.

19
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,300
They like the idea of it.

20
00:00:43,300 --> 00:00:46,600
But then in their mind, it's too much work.

21
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:47,700
In their mind's eye.

22
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:50,200
In their mind's eye, it's just too much.

23
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,000
And it really isn't.

24
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,900
It has saved us for the past five years.

25
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:56,600
Yeah.

26
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,600
It really has.

27
00:00:58,600 --> 00:00:59,600
It saved us.

28
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:00,200
It saved.

29
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,400
No, but kind of for real, for real.

30
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:03,100
Yeah.

31
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:04,600
No, I mean, that's there.

32
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:05,800
It really did.

33
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:10,300
For it to be as extra as we can be, it really did.

34
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:13,800
And it was, it's a cliche for it.

35
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,700
It's a game changer.

36
00:01:15,700 --> 00:01:18,100
We are volume eaters.

37
00:01:18,100 --> 00:01:20,400
Victoria and I were volume eaters.

38
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,400
And it has, right.

39
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:28,000
And it has brought our portions down to where our body now

40
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,400
likes the size that we eat, like likes the portions that we eat.

41
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,200
We were eating so much.

42
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,500
Too much.

43
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:38,800
I think when we first started meal prepping and changing the portion size,

44
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,800
which is really all you need to do.

45
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,400
I remember looking back on like, you know how Instagram or Facebook

46
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,900
pops up a memory from like three years ago or something like that.

47
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:50,500
It was like a plate of food.

48
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:56,100
Like I took a picture of my plate and I cannot fathom eating that much in one sitting.

49
00:01:56,100 --> 00:01:56,400
Yeah.

50
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,100
It was like a breakfast like out to a diner.

51
00:01:59,100 --> 00:01:59,400
Like a diner.

52
00:01:59,400 --> 00:01:59,900
Breakfast.

53
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:00,400
Yeah.

54
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:06,400
I, there's no way I wouldn't feel sick after eating that helping right now.

55
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:06,900
Right now.

56
00:02:06,900 --> 00:02:07,500
Yeah.

57
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,900
I couldn't believe I was like, no wonder.

58
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:14,100
Because when you eat like that for so long, your body gets used to that amount of food

59
00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:15,200
and it's normal.

60
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,700
And then when you stop eating that way, your stomach gets smaller.

61
00:02:19,700 --> 00:02:20,300
Right.

62
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:21,400
And that's a good thing.

63
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:28,800
I mean, it's healthy, but I just think America in general, our portions are insane.

64
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:37,800
If we all bought smaller dinner plates for our regular, you know, dinnerware,

65
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:38,700
it would help.

66
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:40,200
Like my plates are huge.

67
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:40,600
Yeah.

68
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,600
So what do you do?

69
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,800
You fill up your plate.

70
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,400
But like our plates are huge.

71
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:51,200
And I think meal prepping is the key to creating that size for the plate.

72
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:52,000
Yep.

73
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,100
And we're going to talk about that today.

74
00:02:53,100 --> 00:02:56,000
All the tips for meal prepping and how easy it is.

75
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:56,800
Yeah, it really is.

76
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:57,200
Let's do it.

77
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,000
Let's just do it.

78
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:07,100
I'm Victoria.

79
00:03:07,100 --> 00:03:08,700
Hey guys, I'm Carly.

80
00:03:09,900 --> 00:03:11,500
And have you meal prep today?

81
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,200
I didn't today.

82
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,800
But I did on Sunday.

83
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:16,900
Okay.

84
00:03:16,900 --> 00:03:20,100
That's when I usually try to as well.

85
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:21,800
That's also a lie.

86
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:22,700
I've already lied to you.

87
00:03:22,700 --> 00:03:24,100
Oh, what a liar.

88
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:24,400
Yeah.

89
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,300
You weren't a liar.

90
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:27,800
Tuesdays are when I try to meal prep.

91
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,800
Well, that's when you have the most time because that's my most time.

92
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:30,500
Yeah.

93
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:33,400
But the idea of Sunday is yes.

94
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:34,500
Well, that's one of our tips.

95
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:35,700
So don't give it away.

96
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:36,700
Lying to us.

97
00:03:36,700 --> 00:03:38,100
I know.

98
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,000
It did it so naturally.

99
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:39,500
I know.

100
00:03:39,500 --> 00:03:41,200
Man, it just came out real fast.

101
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:41,800
Real fast.

102
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,300
I immediately took it back.

103
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:47,900
So meal prepping before we knock down the tips.

104
00:03:47,900 --> 00:03:48,500
What is it?

105
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:53,600
It's just setting yourself up for the week where you don't have to, you know,

106
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:58,400
work all day, open the refrigerator, whether you live in a house with a full

107
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,200
family or you're you and a roommate or just you and you don't look in the

108
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,500
refrigerator and go, what do I possibly have to make myself right now?

109
00:04:06,500 --> 00:04:08,400
I constantly or used to.

110
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,300
I still do sometimes when I have it meal prepped.

111
00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:15,100
I look in the fridge with and it's full and I'm like, I have nothing to eat.

112
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:15,800
Do you ever do that?

113
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:16,600
I still do that.

114
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:17,000
Yeah.

115
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,300
You look because you have to make it and you don't want to make it.

116
00:04:20,300 --> 00:04:24,300
Andrew's like biggest pet peeve with me is like at night.

117
00:04:24,300 --> 00:04:27,200
We have all this food and he's like, I will make you something.

118
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:27,900
We have so much food.

119
00:04:27,900 --> 00:04:29,300
I'm like, no, it's going to take too much time.

120
00:04:29,300 --> 00:04:30,100
I don't want it.

121
00:04:30,100 --> 00:04:31,500
I don't feel like making it.

122
00:04:31,500 --> 00:04:33,600
It's he's like, it's all right here.

123
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,300
It takes 10 minutes.

124
00:04:35,300 --> 00:04:39,700
But to me at the end of the day, the last thing I want to do is make something.

125
00:04:39,700 --> 00:04:40,200
Yep.

126
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,900
But it's just so much easier when it's already made and you don't have to think.

127
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:46,900
And in the morning, your brain dead.

128
00:04:46,900 --> 00:04:48,600
You just don't want to think about that.

129
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,700
We just started an overnight breakfast option that Carly is going to tell us about that

130
00:04:53,700 --> 00:04:56,500
is the meal prep version for breakfast time.

131
00:04:56,500 --> 00:04:59,300
And that to me was a huge game.

132
00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:01,300
I've never meal prepped breakfast.

133
00:05:01,300 --> 00:05:02,800
You're welcome.

134
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,700
Carly did it.

135
00:05:03,700 --> 00:05:07,300
This is Carly's brainchild.

136
00:05:07,300 --> 00:05:16,400
Kind of and it truly has been one of my favorite things and I make sure I prep it the night

137
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,300
before same every night.

138
00:05:19,300 --> 00:05:19,900
Yeah, I know.

139
00:05:19,900 --> 00:05:20,700
So good.

140
00:05:20,700 --> 00:05:23,800
So we'll we'll talk about like what that actually is.

141
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,500
I got yelled at.

142
00:05:24,500 --> 00:05:25,400
I wasn't allowed to give it away.

143
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,300
No, she like started giving away my tips.

144
00:05:27,300 --> 00:05:29,100
I'm like, I only have so many tips.

145
00:05:29,100 --> 00:05:31,800
Well, we have so much to offer you.

146
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,600
Yeah, we know.

147
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:34,300
Why now?

148
00:05:34,300 --> 00:05:37,500
Okay, let's get down to the nitty gritty here.

149
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:48,100
Tip number one, pick one day out of seven days that is a lighter day for you.

150
00:05:48,100 --> 00:05:49,100
Maybe it's Sunday.

151
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:50,300
Usually it's a weekend day.

152
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:54,700
If you work nine to five, you work, you know, a regular working hours.

153
00:05:54,700 --> 00:06:01,200
It's you don't have like the flexibility during the day to go to the grocery store like jobs

154
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,400
or careers that we have.

155
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,900
We can go to the grocery store on a Monday in the middle of the afternoon.

156
00:06:04,900 --> 00:06:05,400
Right.

157
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,700
So if your weekend is your lighter days, pick one of those weekend days.

158
00:06:08,700 --> 00:06:10,400
If it's during the week, pick one of them.

159
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:15,300
And that's when you'll do your cooking, your chopping, your prepping, your portioning.

160
00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:22,300
That's when it's all going to happen so that the rest of the six days that you have doesn't

161
00:06:22,300 --> 00:06:23,500
you don't even have to think about it.

162
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:25,700
No, it's just you get so much of your life back.

163
00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:26,900
You get so much time.

164
00:06:26,900 --> 00:06:32,100
You will not open the refrigerator and wonder what you want to avoid cooking that night.

165
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:37,100
I know you just have so much to think about in general in life that you have to make decisions.

166
00:06:37,100 --> 00:06:38,600
That is like my least favorite decision.

167
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,100
Yeah.

168
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:40,100
It's like the notebook.

169
00:06:40,100 --> 00:06:41,100
What do you want?

170
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:43,100
What do you want?

171
00:06:43,100 --> 00:06:44,100
I don't know.

172
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:45,100
It's my favorite.

173
00:06:45,100 --> 00:06:45,600
I know.

174
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,100
That's what goes for every situation too.

175
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:53,100
I do the meal prep in terms of like I don't meal prep my lunch.

176
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:58,600
I don't have a full lunch meal already packaged together.

177
00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,100
Really?

178
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:01,100
I have chopped everything.

179
00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:02,100
Everything.

180
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:08,400
So that I take my portioned chopped vegetables and stuff and I put it in one bowl so that

181
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,100
the work is already done.

182
00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:13,100
So like every day for me it's like I don't want tomatoes today.

183
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:14,100
I had them yesterday.

184
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:15,100
I just don't feel like tomatoes today.

185
00:07:15,100 --> 00:07:17,100
So I don't have to do it that way.

186
00:07:17,100 --> 00:07:18,100
Right.

187
00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:21,100
But the chopping is what I am like, oh my God, I have to chop all these things.

188
00:07:21,100 --> 00:07:22,600
So you only have to chop one day.

189
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,100
But you only do it one time.

190
00:07:24,100 --> 00:07:24,600
Yeah.

191
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:25,100
Yeah.

192
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:33,600
So that sort of bleeds into the next tip which is find containers that are reusable and

193
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:34,600
that you like.

194
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,900
So for us it's glass jars.

195
00:07:36,900 --> 00:07:39,900
We love to use and reuse our glass jars.

196
00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:40,900
They're dishwasher safe.

197
00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:41,400
It's glass.

198
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:42,900
You're saving the environment.

199
00:07:42,900 --> 00:07:51,600
I do make my lunch on Sundays and I pre-package it in a mason jar or a glass jar and I have

200
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,900
six of them in the fridge at all times.

201
00:07:53,900 --> 00:07:58,900
So that I just need to pick out a mason jar, open it up and put it in a bowl and then add

202
00:07:58,900 --> 00:07:59,900
my salad dressing.

203
00:07:59,900 --> 00:08:02,600
I don't put the salad dressing in because I don't like the bottom to get.

204
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,800
I used to put the salad dressing in the bottom but I don't want any more because I don't

205
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,500
like to get it soggy.

206
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:08,500
But it's already there.

207
00:08:08,500 --> 00:08:09,000
Yeah.

208
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,200
I've chopped everything on Sunday.

209
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,500
I packaged it on Sunday.

210
00:08:11,500 --> 00:08:13,200
I literally grab and go.

211
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:13,700
Yeah.

212
00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:15,200
But I do make my lunch every day.

213
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,400
I like to eat the same thing every single day.

214
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:18,900
Right.

215
00:08:18,900 --> 00:08:21,300
That is just something that I like to do.

216
00:08:21,300 --> 00:08:22,500
Not everybody likes to do that.

217
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:25,500
They like to switch it up like some days Victoria doesn't like to have tomatoes.

218
00:08:25,500 --> 00:08:27,700
I like the same thing.

219
00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:32,500
It's boring but it works and I don't have to think.

220
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:37,500
I would say 90% of my meals are the exact same.

221
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:41,900
One of the reasons I like the glass jars is because you can see if they've gone bad

222
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:47,900
or if you just waited too long and a chewy tomato is not my thing.

223
00:08:47,900 --> 00:08:48,500
I can't.

224
00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:49,100
I just can't.

225
00:08:49,100 --> 00:08:51,400
When they have wrinkles, throw it out.

226
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:52,000
No.

227
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,500
So that's why.

228
00:08:53,500 --> 00:08:53,900
Yeah.

229
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:56,300
But I enjoy eating the same thing.

230
00:08:56,300 --> 00:08:57,100
You know what you're going to do.

231
00:08:57,100 --> 00:08:57,800
You know what you like.

232
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:57,900
Yeah.

233
00:08:57,900 --> 00:08:59,900
Once you find what you like, why don't you just eat that?

234
00:08:59,900 --> 00:09:00,100
Yeah.

235
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:00,800
What's the problem?

236
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,100
I switch it up other days.

237
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:06,900
Sometimes on the weekends I'll switch it up or if I know I have an event coming up,

238
00:09:06,900 --> 00:09:07,900
I'll eat something different.

239
00:09:07,900 --> 00:09:13,600
But for the most part, I mean consistency when you're watching what you're eating is key anyway.

240
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,000
So if you know in your fridge you have what you have, it's always there.

241
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,400
It's just brainless.

242
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,400
Anything I can do to be brainless.

243
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,100
I'm in.

244
00:09:22,100 --> 00:09:23,200
I know.

245
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:23,900
We know.

246
00:09:23,900 --> 00:09:32,700
So you've done all the chopping and you put them in glass jars where you can see them

247
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:34,600
and or the snackle box.

248
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:40,200
Love a snackle box because it's clear on the top and you can still see your vegetables.

249
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:46,400
But you've now exposed the goods of the vegetables and they could go bad quicker

250
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,700
because that's what happens when you chop things, right?

251
00:09:49,700 --> 00:09:57,400
One of my must do's in my meal prepping day is putting a paper towel.

252
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:58,300
Oh, yeah.

253
00:09:58,300 --> 00:10:04,100
I right now lay one on the snackle box because I have tomatoes and carrots and peppers and

254
00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:05,400
they're all chopped.

255
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,100
So I lay it on the snackle box.

256
00:10:07,100 --> 00:10:08,200
I close the snackle box.

257
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,400
Why?

258
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:17,500
The moisture from the cut vegetables gets soaked into like the paper towel basically soaks

259
00:10:17,500 --> 00:10:18,400
it up like a sponge.

260
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,300
So it takes the moisture and it puts it in the paper towel.

261
00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:22,900
So you do have to change the paper towel.

262
00:10:22,900 --> 00:10:23,400
But guess what?

263
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,800
You're going to go in there and eat what you chopped.

264
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,100
So when you do that, just change the paper towel out for a new one.

265
00:10:29,100 --> 00:10:31,300
I also do it.

266
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:38,800
The snackle box is pretty specific, but I baggy cut onions or scallions and stuff and cilantro.

267
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,100
I have a whole bag plastic bag of cilantro and scallions with two paper towels with paper

268
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:43,700
towels.

269
00:10:43,700 --> 00:10:46,300
So you can just shove the paper towel in there.

270
00:10:46,300 --> 00:10:47,700
I wrap them in the paper towel.

271
00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:48,700
Oh, I'm not that cool.

272
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:50,300
I literally shove them in the bag.

273
00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:50,700
Yeah.

274
00:10:50,700 --> 00:10:54,500
Either way, it's going to soak up the moisture and the moisture is what makes them soggy

275
00:10:54,500 --> 00:10:59,700
and the moisture is what makes them a little like when the peppers get all slimy.

276
00:10:59,700 --> 00:11:00,900
Well, they go bad faster.

277
00:11:00,900 --> 00:11:01,400
Two cumbers.

278
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,400
They go bad faster.

279
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:08,700
So they, with the paper towel, you are saving your grocery list, your wallet because things

280
00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:10,200
are going to last longer.

281
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,700
I cannot give this piece of advice out to people enough.

282
00:11:13,700 --> 00:11:15,900
That's like my number one thing I say to people.

283
00:11:15,900 --> 00:11:21,700
It's funny because we are right on point here because my next one, I mean, we are killing

284
00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:26,700
the game is call is positioning your time sensitive ingredients at the front of the

285
00:11:26,700 --> 00:11:29,500
fridge, brilliant, which is something that I need to do.

286
00:11:29,500 --> 00:11:31,900
Carly's berries are like in the back.

287
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:33,900
That's exactly what I was going to say.

288
00:11:33,900 --> 00:11:35,500
And they're like fuzzy.

289
00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:38,700
Well, they have here this motto that I really like.

290
00:11:38,700 --> 00:11:41,900
It's called front of fridge, front of mind.

291
00:11:41,900 --> 00:11:44,200
So if it's in the front, you can see it.

292
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,600
You can see what's about to go bad.

293
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:51,200
What's not put your blueberries in the front, your raspberries, how many boxes of 699 raspberries

294
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,900
I've had to throw away because it got lost in the back of the fridge, right?

295
00:11:54,900 --> 00:12:00,500
Cause it's a small box or a small box of blueberries or strawberries are like moldy because it

296
00:12:00,500 --> 00:12:04,700
got shoved behind the leftovers of spaghetti or it got shoved behind the chicken or it

297
00:12:04,700 --> 00:12:07,300
got shoved behind LaCroix or whatever.

298
00:12:07,300 --> 00:12:08,300
Yeah, name it all.

299
00:12:08,300 --> 00:12:09,300
Yeah.

300
00:12:09,300 --> 00:12:10,300
What else could it get?

301
00:12:10,300 --> 00:12:13,700
If the things that are in front of it.

302
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:18,800
So put the stuff that's going to go bad in the front.

303
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:24,300
And yes, it takes a little more time to pull everything out to position it.

304
00:12:24,300 --> 00:12:28,660
And every time you go into the fridge, it might take five extra seconds instead of just shoving

305
00:12:28,660 --> 00:12:29,660
everything back.

306
00:12:29,660 --> 00:12:32,100
But if you can do that, you will save yourself so much money.

307
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:33,980
Yeah, it's so much money.

308
00:12:33,980 --> 00:12:34,980
It's true.

309
00:12:34,980 --> 00:12:37,700
I also like that you were like, I loved how they said that.

310
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:40,700
Are you looking at an article that you've put some good tips out?

311
00:12:40,700 --> 00:12:42,500
Front of shelf, front of mind.

312
00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:43,500
Yeah.

313
00:12:43,500 --> 00:12:44,940
I just said out of sight, out of mind.

314
00:12:44,940 --> 00:12:47,860
Just the opposite way to say out of sight, out of mind.

315
00:12:47,860 --> 00:12:48,860
So you think you're pretty?

316
00:12:48,860 --> 00:12:53,500
I just love that you were so tickled by that.

317
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:56,500
Oh, so you think you're pretty?

318
00:12:56,500 --> 00:12:57,500
Cool.

319
00:12:57,500 --> 00:12:59,500
Next tip.

320
00:12:59,500 --> 00:13:07,500
In a second, you're going to be out of sight, out of mind because I'm, I'm peacein' out.

321
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:08,500
Oh my gosh.

322
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:09,500
Okay.

323
00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:10,500
I'm so cool.

324
00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:13,500
Oh my gosh, okay.

325
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:14,900
I'm so glad that you enjoyed that.

326
00:13:14,900 --> 00:13:15,900
I enjoyed that.

327
00:13:15,900 --> 00:13:16,900
I think a little too much.

328
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:17,900
I agree.

329
00:13:17,900 --> 00:13:19,900
I agree.

330
00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:25,940
Moving on and backtracking slightly to something that Carly already talked about, that she

331
00:13:25,940 --> 00:13:28,500
likes to eat the same thing every single day.

332
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:29,500
Yeah.

333
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:30,500
I do too.

334
00:13:30,500 --> 00:13:32,580
I'm not bothered by eating the same meal for two weeks in a row.

335
00:13:32,580 --> 00:13:33,780
Like, it doesn't matter.

336
00:13:33,780 --> 00:13:36,100
Some people simply cannot.

337
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:37,100
Yeah.

338
00:13:37,100 --> 00:13:38,100
And I understand that.

339
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:39,100
Oh, totally.

340
00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:40,700
I agree.

341
00:13:40,700 --> 00:13:43,140
Here's a good way to change that.

342
00:13:43,140 --> 00:13:44,700
And it's kind of like a trick.

343
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:47,140
It's a trick for your mind to a degree.

344
00:13:47,140 --> 00:13:53,620
So let's say you're meal prepping and you're grilling all of your chicken or your cookie,

345
00:13:53,620 --> 00:13:54,620
cook your chicken.

346
00:13:54,620 --> 00:13:55,620
However you want to cook your chicken.

347
00:13:55,620 --> 00:13:56,620
Cook the chicken.

348
00:13:56,620 --> 00:13:57,620
Go get it.

349
00:13:57,620 --> 00:13:58,900
She doesn't eat chicken, so she doesn't know how to say it.

350
00:13:58,900 --> 00:14:02,100
No, but I know that like ever many times.

351
00:14:02,100 --> 00:14:05,220
And it's the easiest thing to like make this analogy.

352
00:14:05,220 --> 00:14:09,340
So your meal prepping while you're chopping all the veggies, you're also cooking your

353
00:14:09,340 --> 00:14:11,260
meat.

354
00:14:11,260 --> 00:14:14,700
And I'm go to BJ's, go to Costco, get the big one.

355
00:14:14,700 --> 00:14:16,380
Like cook it all, right?

356
00:14:16,380 --> 00:14:20,180
You're not individually cooking one chicken breast per day like that.

357
00:14:20,180 --> 00:14:21,180
No, my God.

358
00:14:21,180 --> 00:14:24,860
There's so much time consuming problems there.

359
00:14:24,860 --> 00:14:27,980
But you are someone that doesn't like to eat the same thing every day.

360
00:14:27,980 --> 00:14:31,500
So one chicken breast, you're going to season with salt and pepper and olive oil.

361
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:34,300
One chicken breast, you're going to season with the taco seasoning.

362
00:14:34,300 --> 00:14:35,300
I don't know.

363
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:38,820
One chicken breast, you're going to put lemon, pepper and lemon.

364
00:14:38,820 --> 00:14:39,820
Make them different.

365
00:14:39,820 --> 00:14:45,540
Make them taste different so that you're not, yes, you're eating a chicken on top of salad.

366
00:14:45,540 --> 00:14:49,980
Let's say that's your meal prep for your lunch, but it's seasoned differently.

367
00:14:49,980 --> 00:14:53,420
It's going to taste different even though you're still getting the right amount of protein.

368
00:14:53,420 --> 00:14:56,660
You're still being really healthy about it.

369
00:14:56,660 --> 00:14:57,660
That's ideal.

370
00:14:57,660 --> 00:15:05,780
That still isn't enough for you, cut the different seasoned chicken differently for everything.

371
00:15:05,780 --> 00:15:11,980
So let's say normal chicken on Monday and you're just cutting it up, putting it on a salad,

372
00:15:11,980 --> 00:15:13,980
tastes good.

373
00:15:13,980 --> 00:15:16,700
Tuesday, it's taco Tuesday.

374
00:15:16,700 --> 00:15:20,540
You're going to get those lettuce wraps and you're going to make your chopped vegetables

375
00:15:20,540 --> 00:15:25,060
into like a taco, but you're going to shred the chicken.

376
00:15:25,060 --> 00:15:27,180
So you've already cooked it, but you're shredding it.

377
00:15:27,180 --> 00:15:30,780
So now you're eating it in a different way even though it's exactly what you meal prepped.

378
00:15:30,780 --> 00:15:33,140
And you can meal prep shred at the same time.

379
00:15:33,140 --> 00:15:35,540
You don't have to do that the same day either.

380
00:15:35,540 --> 00:15:37,260
So that's totally up to you.

381
00:15:37,260 --> 00:15:42,180
But the way that you eat the food and the way that you season the food can be different

382
00:15:42,180 --> 00:15:44,900
every day even though you did it in all one shot.

383
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:47,060
It's like a mind trick.

384
00:15:47,060 --> 00:15:51,620
I was going to say something explicit, but it's a mind trick.

385
00:15:51,620 --> 00:15:54,140
Is that different from when I said it's like tricking your mind?

386
00:15:54,140 --> 00:15:56,940
Okay, cool, cool.

387
00:15:56,940 --> 00:16:01,980
It's insight in mind.

388
00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:08,620
But I truly think that that's such a big factor if you're not someone that can eat the exact

389
00:16:08,620 --> 00:16:11,020
same thing every single day.

390
00:16:11,020 --> 00:16:12,620
Just twist it a little bit.

391
00:16:12,620 --> 00:16:17,620
Make it easy for yourself because you can do so many different things in the kitchen

392
00:16:17,620 --> 00:16:19,420
if we weren't too tired to do it.

393
00:16:19,420 --> 00:16:24,140
Yeah, like when you're making your chicken, say on your Sunday, put everything but the

394
00:16:24,140 --> 00:16:27,940
bagel on one piece of chicken, put barbecue sauce on the other piece of chicken, put green

395
00:16:27,940 --> 00:16:30,980
goddess dressing on the other piece of chicken.

396
00:16:30,980 --> 00:16:32,260
Oh, it's so good.

397
00:16:32,260 --> 00:16:35,500
All of those items or options are amazing.

398
00:16:35,500 --> 00:16:40,860
And so once you make it like that every day, same salad, same basics, just a different

399
00:16:40,860 --> 00:16:43,140
chicken topping that's like a different meal.

400
00:16:43,140 --> 00:16:44,340
I'll go for it.

401
00:16:44,340 --> 00:16:47,220
I like how you said it.

402
00:16:47,220 --> 00:16:48,220
It's a mind trick.

403
00:16:48,220 --> 00:16:54,100
Okay, next one is what we started to talk about earlier, which is our new favorite breakfast.

404
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:55,980
Overnight oats.

405
00:16:55,980 --> 00:16:57,900
They are a breakfast lifesaver.

406
00:16:57,900 --> 00:16:58,900
Oh my God.

407
00:16:58,900 --> 00:17:05,020
So we, you all know that we drink rice coffee and if you haven't checked it out, you should.

408
00:17:05,020 --> 00:17:06,020
It's mushroom coffee.

409
00:17:06,020 --> 00:17:07,020
We love it.

410
00:17:07,020 --> 00:17:10,940
So the brand Rise, R-Y-Z-E, now makes oatmeal.

411
00:17:10,940 --> 00:17:15,100
And if you would like to sponsor us Rise, we eat it every day and it's sort of expensive

412
00:17:15,100 --> 00:17:16,700
so we could use some help.

413
00:17:16,700 --> 00:17:20,780
Listen, it's totally worth it and I hate oatmeal.

414
00:17:20,780 --> 00:17:22,220
Oh, Victoria hated oatmeal.

415
00:17:22,220 --> 00:17:24,940
And I told her about this, she was like, I don't eat oatmeal.

416
00:17:24,940 --> 00:17:26,980
I said, just try it.

417
00:17:26,980 --> 00:17:30,820
So Victoria, tell everybody how you do the overnight oats every single day.

418
00:17:30,820 --> 00:17:33,980
No, that's great, but tell them how to do it.

419
00:17:33,980 --> 00:17:38,380
Oh, well you follow the directions on the packet and you put in as much milk as you

420
00:17:38,380 --> 00:17:39,900
want four or eight ounces.

421
00:17:39,900 --> 00:17:42,140
I like four because it's not like liquidy.

422
00:17:42,140 --> 00:17:43,140
Like liquidy.

423
00:17:43,140 --> 00:17:44,500
See, I truly don't like oatmeal.

424
00:17:44,500 --> 00:17:49,420
It took 35 years for me to enjoy another option for breakfast.

425
00:17:49,420 --> 00:17:50,820
Other than egg whites and toast.

426
00:17:50,820 --> 00:17:55,420
Toast, toast, avocado, that was like my staple and I still love it and I do mix out.

427
00:17:55,420 --> 00:17:59,260
I do, yeah, switch it out per week or per day.

428
00:17:59,260 --> 00:18:05,780
But oatmeal was like a gag thinking about it and this has so much protein in it and

429
00:18:05,780 --> 00:18:08,900
I jam-pack a little bit more protein in it.

430
00:18:08,900 --> 00:18:09,900
You do, yeah.

431
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:10,900
Yeah.

432
00:18:10,900 --> 00:18:13,900
I mean, it comes, if you do the Rise, you can do any overnight oats, whatever, but we

433
00:18:13,900 --> 00:18:14,900
do the Rise.

434
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:17,620
It comes with a shaker.

435
00:18:17,620 --> 00:18:21,500
And you put it all in the shaker, you just put the oatmeal and the milk and you put it

436
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:22,500
in the fridge.

437
00:18:22,500 --> 00:18:23,500
Yep.

438
00:18:23,500 --> 00:18:26,420
You shake it like a protein, like you see people at the gym do, shake it, put it in

439
00:18:26,420 --> 00:18:28,140
the refrigerator, it's done.

440
00:18:28,140 --> 00:18:30,540
You're going to have cold oatmeal in the morning.

441
00:18:30,540 --> 00:18:31,540
It's so good.

442
00:18:31,540 --> 00:18:35,020
Well, let me tell you, there's nothing better.

443
00:18:35,020 --> 00:18:36,020
There's nothing better.

444
00:18:36,020 --> 00:18:39,540
I've also done it that morning and put it in the microwave and had hot oatmeal like a

445
00:18:39,540 --> 00:18:40,540
normal hot meal.

446
00:18:40,540 --> 00:18:41,540
Yeah, I do that too.

447
00:18:41,540 --> 00:18:42,540
And it's fantastic.

448
00:18:42,540 --> 00:18:43,540
You add berries.

449
00:18:43,540 --> 00:18:45,860
I add, I add berries.

450
00:18:45,860 --> 00:18:51,140
But I also add some almonds for extra protein and I also add some regular steel cut old

451
00:18:51,140 --> 00:18:54,020
fashioned oats to the mix the night before.

452
00:18:54,020 --> 00:18:57,300
The night before for a little more protein.

453
00:18:57,300 --> 00:19:00,300
So my protein in the morning is like 30 grams of protein.

454
00:19:00,300 --> 00:19:04,380
So right now I have three in my fridge for the week.

455
00:19:04,380 --> 00:19:08,860
So I know that I have three mornings of overnight oats and in between I'll have my egg whites

456
00:19:08,860 --> 00:19:09,860
and my toast.

457
00:19:09,860 --> 00:19:10,860
You pre-shake them?

458
00:19:10,860 --> 00:19:11,860
Oh yeah.

459
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:12,860
No way.

460
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:13,860
Yeah.

461
00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:14,860
I always do it the night before.

462
00:19:14,860 --> 00:19:16,060
I do it for the week.

463
00:19:16,060 --> 00:19:17,540
So it's over day.

464
00:19:17,540 --> 00:19:18,540
It's over.

465
00:19:18,540 --> 00:19:19,540
Oats.

466
00:19:19,540 --> 00:19:20,540
Oats.

467
00:19:20,540 --> 00:19:21,540
Oats.

468
00:19:21,540 --> 00:19:22,540
Oats.

469
00:19:22,540 --> 00:19:23,540
Oats.

470
00:19:23,540 --> 00:19:24,540
Over all the nights.

471
00:19:24,540 --> 00:19:27,660
And then next morning I'll put in the berries and I always put in a little granola.

472
00:19:27,660 --> 00:19:31,340
Victoria makes fun of me that granola is like my kryptonite.

473
00:19:31,340 --> 00:19:33,980
But I like to add a little granola one time.

474
00:19:33,980 --> 00:19:37,500
Somebody asked me like, what can you not like, what's your go-to?

475
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:38,820
What can you not stop eating?

476
00:19:38,820 --> 00:19:40,860
And I was like, oh my God, granola.

477
00:19:40,860 --> 00:19:44,380
And Victoria is like, oh granola, you can't stop eating granola.

478
00:19:44,380 --> 00:19:45,380
Okay.

479
00:19:45,380 --> 00:19:48,300
This whole conversation was on the podcast and it was about grapes.

480
00:19:48,300 --> 00:19:49,540
No, that also happened.

481
00:19:49,540 --> 00:19:50,540
Oh my God.

482
00:19:50,540 --> 00:19:51,940
Then it wasn't me.

483
00:19:51,940 --> 00:19:52,940
No.

484
00:19:52,940 --> 00:19:55,100
But granola is hilarious to me.

485
00:19:55,100 --> 00:19:58,660
I would choose cookies, chocolate chip or s'mores.

486
00:19:58,660 --> 00:19:59,660
You know?

487
00:19:59,660 --> 00:20:04,620
Well if you find a good granola that you like, put a little, like a little bit because then

488
00:20:04,620 --> 00:20:08,020
it ends up being cereal and that's what you don't want because there's sugar and granola

489
00:20:08,020 --> 00:20:12,980
and there's a lot of stuff that is not great if you have too much at once.

490
00:20:12,980 --> 00:20:16,380
But I like crunch in my- That's why I put the almonds in my-

491
00:20:16,380 --> 00:20:17,380
Oatmeal, yeah.

492
00:20:17,380 --> 00:20:21,380
And so I'll do raspberries or strawberries, a little granola and the oatmeal and it is

493
00:20:21,380 --> 00:20:23,820
like a party in your mouth.

494
00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:29,700
And because it's so much protein in just the overnight oat pack, you can always add more.

495
00:20:29,700 --> 00:20:30,780
Like I do.

496
00:20:30,780 --> 00:20:32,500
I'm satiated until lunch.

497
00:20:32,500 --> 00:20:33,500
I'm like, oh my God, it's lunch.

498
00:20:33,500 --> 00:20:34,500
I gotta eat lunch.

499
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:35,500
Right.

500
00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:39,420
Like I'm not even a little bit thinking about food until lunchtime.

501
00:20:39,420 --> 00:20:44,300
But you think of oatmeal as like a cozy winter meal and it is not-

502
00:20:44,300 --> 00:20:45,300
No.

503
00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:46,300
That.

504
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:53,380
Not wanna ch- It's honestly, I- I now, I would make a playlist or write a program, a workout

505
00:20:53,380 --> 00:20:54,380
program.

506
00:20:54,380 --> 00:20:57,940
I would do things in the morning with my coffee, sitting on the couch with the dog while I'm

507
00:20:57,940 --> 00:21:01,500
eating my toast and now I'm like, I'm just gonna enjoy this and because I'm not gonna

508
00:21:01,500 --> 00:21:05,300
do anything, I'm only gonna eat the oatmeal because I wanna savor it.

509
00:21:05,300 --> 00:21:06,300
Right.

510
00:21:06,300 --> 00:21:07,300
And then it's gone and I get really sad.

511
00:21:07,300 --> 00:21:08,300
I know.

512
00:21:08,300 --> 00:21:09,300
Until the next day.

513
00:21:09,300 --> 00:21:12,980
I think that's the misconception people think I have to eat healthy.

514
00:21:12,980 --> 00:21:16,380
It's gonna just be bland and boring and I'm gonna hate it and-

515
00:21:16,380 --> 00:21:17,940
Not even a little bit.

516
00:21:17,940 --> 00:21:20,220
You don't just, because what, what?

517
00:21:20,220 --> 00:21:21,220
Hold on.

518
00:21:21,220 --> 00:21:25,980
My God, you just glitched so hard.

519
00:21:25,980 --> 00:21:28,980
Like so hard.

520
00:21:28,980 --> 00:21:29,980
She's all right.

521
00:21:29,980 --> 00:21:35,540
Yeah, yeah, definitely don't cut that or anything.

522
00:21:35,540 --> 00:21:41,860
The misconception that you have to not like what you're eating to be healthy is a total

523
00:21:41,860 --> 00:21:42,860
misconception.

524
00:21:42,860 --> 00:21:43,860
Very good.

525
00:21:43,860 --> 00:21:46,220
I'm so glad that you thought about that.

526
00:21:46,220 --> 00:21:49,260
There are good foods that are healthy and this is one of them.

527
00:21:49,260 --> 00:21:53,700
We've spent a lot of time on overnight oats but that's how passionate we are about them.

528
00:21:53,700 --> 00:22:01,180
So I mean, honest to God, this was like a shock to me that I even humored you and did

529
00:22:01,180 --> 00:22:02,300
one pack.

530
00:22:02,300 --> 00:22:06,060
But I think some people in their heads are like, oh, oatmeal carbs, carbs are bad, can't

531
00:22:06,060 --> 00:22:08,220
have starch and carbs.

532
00:22:08,220 --> 00:22:11,420
We did an episode on carbs, people listen back.

533
00:22:11,420 --> 00:22:12,420
Carbs are good.

534
00:22:12,420 --> 00:22:14,060
Good carbs are good.

535
00:22:14,060 --> 00:22:15,740
Oatmeal carbs are fantastic.

536
00:22:15,740 --> 00:22:18,060
And guys, this is mushroom oatmeal.

537
00:22:18,060 --> 00:22:21,380
I know it sounds gross but it is so delicious.

538
00:22:21,380 --> 00:22:23,540
I mean, and good for your digestive system.

539
00:22:23,540 --> 00:22:25,420
There's oats in there.

540
00:22:25,420 --> 00:22:26,420
Digestive system.

541
00:22:26,420 --> 00:22:28,300
Very good.

542
00:22:28,300 --> 00:22:29,300
There's oats in there.

543
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:31,540
It's not like oatmeal made out of mushrooms.

544
00:22:31,540 --> 00:22:32,540
No, no, no, no.

545
00:22:32,540 --> 00:22:33,540
There's oats in there.

546
00:22:33,540 --> 00:22:34,620
There's adaptogens.

547
00:22:34,620 --> 00:22:37,740
There are different kinds of mushrooms that help different parts of your body.

548
00:22:37,740 --> 00:22:38,740
One's for your brain.

549
00:22:38,740 --> 00:22:39,740
One's for your gut.

550
00:22:39,740 --> 00:22:40,740
Adaptogens.

551
00:22:40,740 --> 00:22:50,060
Will you adapt in them?

552
00:22:50,060 --> 00:22:51,060
Adaptogens.

553
00:22:51,060 --> 00:22:52,140
You look up adaptogens.

554
00:22:52,140 --> 00:22:53,140
Okay.

555
00:22:53,140 --> 00:22:54,140
Okay.

556
00:22:54,140 --> 00:22:55,140
We'll look it up right now.

557
00:22:55,140 --> 00:22:56,140
We'll wait.

558
00:22:56,140 --> 00:23:00,140
She said, will you adapt in them?

559
00:23:00,140 --> 00:23:02,140
Adaptogens.

560
00:23:02,140 --> 00:23:05,180
I'd love to know how you spelled that.

561
00:23:05,180 --> 00:23:06,180
So wrong, right?

562
00:23:06,180 --> 00:23:07,180
Oh my God.

563
00:23:07,180 --> 00:23:11,380
It like didn't even know what word I was trying to get.

564
00:23:11,380 --> 00:23:13,500
Oh my God.

565
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:15,980
How do they, oh they benefit your skin.

566
00:23:15,980 --> 00:23:17,480
Yep.

567
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:18,480
That's so good.

568
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,860
They're herbs that reduce fatigue and toxic effects of stress.

569
00:23:22,860 --> 00:23:25,140
Basically, they adapt to mushroom.

570
00:23:25,140 --> 00:23:27,140
Yeah, they adapt to what your body needs.

571
00:23:27,140 --> 00:23:29,620
So they adapt to them.

572
00:23:29,620 --> 00:23:30,620
Those adaptogens.

573
00:23:30,620 --> 00:23:34,140
Did you spell it like gin?

574
00:23:34,140 --> 00:23:36,140
Sure did.

575
00:23:36,140 --> 00:23:37,140
Wow.

576
00:23:37,140 --> 00:23:38,140
Yes.

577
00:23:38,140 --> 00:23:39,780
Adaptogens are amazing.

578
00:23:39,780 --> 00:23:43,740
There's lots of adaptogens in the mushroom coffee that we drink.

579
00:23:43,740 --> 00:23:47,740
Read the pack.

580
00:23:47,740 --> 00:23:49,740
I'll adapt to them.

581
00:23:49,740 --> 00:23:52,740
I don't think you will.

582
00:23:52,740 --> 00:23:55,780
I don't think you will.

583
00:23:55,780 --> 00:23:56,780
Amazing.

584
00:23:56,780 --> 00:24:00,780
Okay, we're moving on and adapting into this next tip.

585
00:24:00,780 --> 00:24:01,780
Tipped.

586
00:24:01,780 --> 00:24:02,780
Okay.

587
00:24:02,780 --> 00:24:10,580
So shop your pantry before you do your meal prepping or before you go to the grocery store

588
00:24:10,580 --> 00:24:11,860
at two meal prep.

589
00:24:11,860 --> 00:24:17,740
Whatever day you have the most time to do all of this.

590
00:24:17,740 --> 00:24:22,700
Don't do what I do and buy four and five of the same thing.

591
00:24:22,700 --> 00:24:24,660
There was like a shocking.

592
00:24:24,660 --> 00:24:27,700
We're going to talk about an Instagram video that none of you have seen and that we're

593
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:29,460
going to explain wrong totally.

594
00:24:29,460 --> 00:24:31,300
And it's not even going to be worth it.

595
00:24:31,300 --> 00:24:32,500
Here we go.

596
00:24:32,500 --> 00:24:36,420
There was a reel of some music.

597
00:24:36,420 --> 00:24:41,820
I don't know, but the words were like, you know, when you just keep forgetting and it

598
00:24:41,820 --> 00:24:46,900
was a guy standing and what I assume is a pantry and it was just in the doorway and

599
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:51,060
he pulls out a loaf of bread and he puts it down and then he pulls out another loaf.

600
00:24:51,060 --> 00:24:52,060
Oh my God.

601
00:24:52,060 --> 00:24:53,060
Yes.

602
00:24:53,060 --> 00:24:55,780
He pulled out 12 different loaves of bread.

603
00:24:55,780 --> 00:24:59,900
And of course I got into an algorithm where like apparently it was trending and somebody

604
00:24:59,900 --> 00:25:04,140
did it with hot sauces of like the exact same hot sauce.

605
00:25:04,140 --> 00:25:07,340
Unopened but like ready for the Armageddon.

606
00:25:07,340 --> 00:25:08,340
Yes.

607
00:25:08,340 --> 00:25:10,580
So I kind of shop like that ready for the Armageddon.

608
00:25:10,580 --> 00:25:14,500
I'm like, let me just make sure I get two of them just in case they get discontinued.

609
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:16,540
Just in case I can't find it again.

610
00:25:16,540 --> 00:25:22,780
However, to save that time, that money and to meal prep efficiently, shop your pantry,

611
00:25:22,780 --> 00:25:24,020
do what you have.

612
00:25:24,020 --> 00:25:29,980
Make sure you don't have to get that everything bagel, you know, spice.

613
00:25:29,980 --> 00:25:30,980
Yes.

614
00:25:30,980 --> 00:25:32,700
Because you already have one and you already have a backup.

615
00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:34,660
And you're going to go to the store next week.

616
00:25:34,660 --> 00:25:35,660
Right.

617
00:25:35,660 --> 00:25:38,820
So it's not like if you go once a month, that would be amazing.

618
00:25:38,820 --> 00:25:40,940
If you could get it down to once a month, I would love that.

619
00:25:40,940 --> 00:25:42,140
I do like two weeks.

620
00:25:42,140 --> 00:25:43,140
Yeah.

621
00:25:43,140 --> 00:25:44,140
I've never been able to do once a month.

622
00:25:44,140 --> 00:25:46,060
So you know you're going to get back there again.

623
00:25:46,060 --> 00:25:49,780
We are all fortunate enough to be able to go back to the grocery store.

624
00:25:49,780 --> 00:25:52,300
Every time I go food shopping, I'm like, it's the last time.

625
00:25:52,300 --> 00:25:53,300
I know.

626
00:25:53,300 --> 00:25:54,300
Yeah.

627
00:25:54,300 --> 00:25:55,300
Why?

628
00:25:55,300 --> 00:25:56,300
I don't know.

629
00:25:56,300 --> 00:25:57,300
I do it with paper towels too.

630
00:25:57,300 --> 00:26:00,300
And like, could you bring some to C-Fix if you don't have any?

631
00:26:00,300 --> 00:26:03,020
No, I usually steal them from C-Fix.

632
00:26:03,020 --> 00:26:07,500
So I'm in the need for them.

633
00:26:07,500 --> 00:26:12,260
But then think of it just like what you were saying with in front of mind, front of body.

634
00:26:12,260 --> 00:26:13,260
What was your phrase?

635
00:26:13,260 --> 00:26:15,980
In front of fridge, in front of mind.

636
00:26:15,980 --> 00:26:17,820
There you go.

637
00:26:17,820 --> 00:26:26,020
Don't buy a second or third box of strawberries or three-cheese Mexican cheese blend because

638
00:26:26,020 --> 00:26:29,540
you didn't look to see that you already had one or two of them.

639
00:26:29,540 --> 00:26:34,860
Because then you're taking up space for all the jars that you're about to put in there.

640
00:26:34,860 --> 00:26:35,860
And then there's no more room.

641
00:26:35,860 --> 00:26:38,740
And you've just wasted because you're not going to be able to eat all of that by the

642
00:26:38,740 --> 00:26:39,740
time they go bad.

643
00:26:39,740 --> 00:26:41,060
You're just not going to.

644
00:26:41,060 --> 00:26:43,200
Even with the paper towel trick.

645
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:48,940
So you have to shop your pantry, shop your fridge first, write it all down, like be as

646
00:26:48,940 --> 00:26:51,460
organized as you can.

647
00:26:51,460 --> 00:26:55,340
And then that's how you're going to save the most amount of time and money in the long

648
00:26:55,340 --> 00:26:56,340
run per week.

649
00:26:56,340 --> 00:27:01,620
I love that because if you're like me and if you have a second fridge, we have one in

650
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:02,620
the basement.

651
00:27:02,620 --> 00:27:04,700
I like to keep my overflow of food down there.

652
00:27:04,700 --> 00:27:07,020
But then I never check that basement fridge.

653
00:27:07,020 --> 00:27:08,540
I thought it was for drinks.

654
00:27:08,540 --> 00:27:09,900
It was supposed to be.

655
00:27:09,900 --> 00:27:10,900
And then.

656
00:27:10,900 --> 00:27:11,900
Because it was for Andrew.

657
00:27:11,900 --> 00:27:13,060
Yeah, I got it for Father's Day.

658
00:27:13,060 --> 00:27:16,380
She drove to Home Depot and she was like, come get a fridge with me.

659
00:27:16,380 --> 00:27:17,380
I was like, what?

660
00:27:17,380 --> 00:27:18,380
You want me to pick up a what?

661
00:27:18,380 --> 00:27:20,020
I was like, you have a truck?

662
00:27:20,020 --> 00:27:21,020
She was like, it's small.

663
00:27:21,020 --> 00:27:22,020
It's a mini.

664
00:27:22,020 --> 00:27:23,020
It's like cute.

665
00:27:23,020 --> 00:27:24,020
Yeah, it's so cute.

666
00:27:24,020 --> 00:27:25,020
Oh my God.

667
00:27:25,020 --> 00:27:26,020
They laughed at us.

668
00:27:26,020 --> 00:27:27,020
I know because they were like, how are you going to get this in the truck?

669
00:27:27,020 --> 00:27:28,020
And I was like, we'll be fine.

670
00:27:28,020 --> 00:27:29,020
We work out like nobody.

671
00:27:29,020 --> 00:27:32,420
There was like, remember there was a guy that came out of his car and was like, do you need

672
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:33,420
help?

673
00:27:33,420 --> 00:27:34,420
Well, I was like, no, we got this.

674
00:27:34,420 --> 00:27:35,900
I hate when people try and ask us for help.

675
00:27:35,900 --> 00:27:36,900
Yes, sir.

676
00:27:36,900 --> 00:27:37,900
Please.

677
00:27:37,900 --> 00:27:38,900
Thank you.

678
00:27:38,900 --> 00:27:43,900
I was like, I'm going to tip it on its side because then all the antifreeze goes in and

679
00:27:43,900 --> 00:27:44,900
I was like, oh, oh God, nice to know.

680
00:27:44,900 --> 00:27:46,900
And then we had to get it in my basement without Andrew saying, that was fun.

681
00:27:46,900 --> 00:27:47,900
Happy Father's Day.

682
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:49,220
It's now not for drinks.

683
00:27:49,220 --> 00:27:50,220
It's for food.

684
00:27:50,220 --> 00:27:52,300
That's the truth.

685
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:59,500
There's no alcohol in there right now, but it's full of Dave's bread and almond milks

686
00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:02,900
that have since gone bad because you just pick them up as you go.

687
00:28:02,900 --> 00:28:04,900
Yes, because I'm like, I need four almond milks.

688
00:28:04,900 --> 00:28:07,140
I'll put two in the downstairs for each two in the upstairs.

689
00:28:07,140 --> 00:28:08,140
Oh my God.

690
00:28:08,140 --> 00:28:09,060
I'm like, I'm like, I'm not going to get it all the time.

691
00:28:09,060 --> 00:28:10,860
And then I forget that they're down there.

692
00:28:10,860 --> 00:28:11,860
They're $5 each.

693
00:28:11,860 --> 00:28:13,860
Yeah, I know.

694
00:28:13,860 --> 00:28:14,860
Because of the apocalypse.

695
00:28:14,860 --> 00:28:17,180
That's, I mean, yeah, I get it.

696
00:28:17,180 --> 00:28:18,180
So don't do that.

697
00:28:18,180 --> 00:28:21,860
It's a waste of money and it's a waste of money.

698
00:28:21,860 --> 00:28:23,580
Armageddon and apocalypse, the same thing.

699
00:28:23,580 --> 00:28:27,300
No, Armageddon is to fight the apocalypse, right?

700
00:28:27,300 --> 00:28:30,340
And the apocalypse is the act of.

701
00:28:30,340 --> 00:28:35,100
Armageddon is the action in defense.

702
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:36,100
Yes.

703
00:28:36,100 --> 00:28:37,100
Amazing.

704
00:28:37,100 --> 00:28:38,900
No, I don't think any of that's true.

705
00:28:38,900 --> 00:28:39,900
That is today.

706
00:28:39,900 --> 00:28:40,900
Let's ask Bruce Willis.

707
00:28:40,900 --> 00:28:41,900
Wasn't he in that movie?

708
00:28:41,900 --> 00:28:42,900
I have no idea.

709
00:28:42,900 --> 00:28:45,300
Oh, wait, is that the one?

710
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:46,300
Keanu Reeves.

711
00:28:46,300 --> 00:28:50,580
No, it wasn't Keanu Reeves, but wasn't that with the Liv Tyler?

712
00:28:50,580 --> 00:28:59,180
I'm close to you feeling your heart beating.

713
00:28:59,180 --> 00:29:00,580
And Liv Tyler didn't sing that.

714
00:29:00,580 --> 00:29:03,060
It was his, her dad, she was in the music video and the.

715
00:29:03,060 --> 00:29:04,060
Stephen.

716
00:29:04,060 --> 00:29:05,060
Stephen.

717
00:29:05,060 --> 00:29:06,060
What's his name?

718
00:29:06,060 --> 00:29:07,060
Jacker.

719
00:29:07,060 --> 00:29:08,060
No.

720
00:29:08,060 --> 00:29:09,060
Stephen Tyler.

721
00:29:09,060 --> 00:29:10,060
Stephen Tyler.

722
00:29:10,060 --> 00:29:11,060
Jacker is a completely different person.

723
00:29:11,060 --> 00:29:12,060
Stephen Tyler.

724
00:29:12,060 --> 00:29:14,060
Liv Tyler was in the movie and also in the music video.

725
00:29:14,060 --> 00:29:15,300
We should review movies.

726
00:29:15,300 --> 00:29:17,500
That's what we should do.

727
00:29:17,500 --> 00:29:18,800
Maybe just the ones we've seen.

728
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,060
This podcast should be about movie reviews.

729
00:29:21,060 --> 00:29:22,780
We're good at it.

730
00:29:22,780 --> 00:29:23,840
I've never seen Armageddon.

731
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,380
You said Mick Jagger.

732
00:29:25,380 --> 00:29:28,500
Anyway, don't do that.

733
00:29:28,500 --> 00:29:29,500
Yeah.

734
00:29:29,500 --> 00:29:30,500
Don't over buy.

735
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:31,500
Don't over buy.

736
00:29:31,500 --> 00:29:33,660
I also want to point out.

737
00:29:33,660 --> 00:29:40,620
We are talking specifically about us.

738
00:29:40,620 --> 00:29:41,620
Let me clarify.

739
00:29:41,620 --> 00:29:42,980
Let me clarify.

740
00:29:42,980 --> 00:29:46,260
I live alone and I meal prep for myself.

741
00:29:46,260 --> 00:29:50,180
You live in a family of five and you meal prep for everybody.

742
00:29:50,180 --> 00:29:51,180
For everybody.

743
00:29:51,180 --> 00:29:55,980
So it's doable for more than one person.

744
00:29:55,980 --> 00:29:59,300
I just had a feeling and just had a thought that some people are going to be like, okay,

745
00:29:59,300 --> 00:30:01,980
that's really nice, but I have to think about everyone.

746
00:30:01,980 --> 00:30:02,980
Oh no.

747
00:30:02,980 --> 00:30:04,500
I make food for everybody.

748
00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:05,700
So talk about it.

749
00:30:05,700 --> 00:30:08,420
So that's why we love the snackle box so much.

750
00:30:08,420 --> 00:30:12,620
I have saved so much money this summer and I honestly think it's been the savior of

751
00:30:12,620 --> 00:30:21,820
the summer because you know when you're at the pool or at the beach, your kids are running

752
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:22,820
around.

753
00:30:22,820 --> 00:30:23,820
They don't want to sit and eat.

754
00:30:23,820 --> 00:30:27,660
So what I've been doing is cutting up the cucumbers, cutting up their granola bars, cutting up

755
00:30:27,660 --> 00:30:29,980
the carrots and they live in the fridge.

756
00:30:29,980 --> 00:30:30,980
Cut up a granola bar?

757
00:30:30,980 --> 00:30:31,980
I do in half.

758
00:30:31,980 --> 00:30:32,900
Really?

759
00:30:32,900 --> 00:30:34,260
Because to just fit in the box?

760
00:30:34,260 --> 00:30:35,260
To just fit in the box.

761
00:30:35,260 --> 00:30:39,620
And also I noticed that they're only grabbing half and then they'll grab a cucumber.

762
00:30:39,620 --> 00:30:44,620
Instead of eating the whole chocolate granola bar or you know, chocolate chip granola bar,

763
00:30:44,620 --> 00:30:48,700
they'll pick and pick on cheese sticks that I cut in half or this and they'll grab a lot

764
00:30:48,700 --> 00:30:51,020
of everything, but they live in the fridge.

765
00:30:51,020 --> 00:30:55,620
So that's my meal prep for lunch and they bring it out.

766
00:30:55,620 --> 00:30:58,820
If they want a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, they'll ask me for it and of course I will

767
00:30:58,820 --> 00:30:59,820
make that.

768
00:30:59,820 --> 00:31:00,820
But the stuff.

769
00:31:00,820 --> 00:31:01,820
No kids.

770
00:31:01,820 --> 00:31:02,820
I don't want to eat what I make you.

771
00:31:02,820 --> 00:31:03,940
Get the snuggle box.

772
00:31:03,940 --> 00:31:10,260
But they have been eating number one healthier and number two, not wasting food.

773
00:31:10,260 --> 00:31:15,740
If you keep all your cut stuff in the fridge and pull it out for lunch, it just has, I

774
00:31:15,740 --> 00:31:18,540
mean, that's what we do at home and we meal prep for dinner.

775
00:31:18,540 --> 00:31:19,620
I do crockpot meals.

776
00:31:19,620 --> 00:31:22,980
I throw the chicken in the, in the crockpot or the air fryer.

777
00:31:22,980 --> 00:31:27,420
I can't wait for winter crockpot meals, but you can do that now.

778
00:31:27,420 --> 00:31:28,420
It just not as like.

779
00:31:28,420 --> 00:31:30,540
But I don't want something hot at night.

780
00:31:30,540 --> 00:31:34,260
Like at the end of the night when you know it's been cooking all day long and it's warm,

781
00:31:34,260 --> 00:31:35,980
like I can't wait for that.

782
00:31:35,980 --> 00:31:40,140
But yes, you can crockpot salsa chicken and that's a summer thing too.

783
00:31:40,140 --> 00:31:42,460
And we are leftover family.

784
00:31:42,460 --> 00:31:47,060
So I know some families don't eat leftovers and send them our way.

785
00:31:47,060 --> 00:31:48,940
Can you email us as to why guys?

786
00:31:48,940 --> 00:31:50,740
I mean, Victoria, dad doesn't eat leftovers.

787
00:31:50,740 --> 00:31:56,180
I know, but I would like him to email us as to why I don't understand.

788
00:31:56,180 --> 00:31:59,540
So that's why I'm saying lots of our stuff gets lost in the back of the fridge because

789
00:31:59,540 --> 00:32:00,540
that's big.

790
00:32:00,540 --> 00:32:03,500
Any of meatballs is in front because we are a leftover family.

791
00:32:03,500 --> 00:32:05,740
So like I do it for all.

792
00:32:05,740 --> 00:32:08,220
You're more than a leftover family, Carly.

793
00:32:08,220 --> 00:32:11,260
No, no, not yet.

794
00:32:11,260 --> 00:32:16,900
But it is possible and I do it for the week for everybody when I'm cutting up my salads

795
00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:20,500
on Sunday and I'm chopping all the vegetables and washing all the grapes.

796
00:32:20,500 --> 00:32:21,500
That's for everybody.

797
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:22,500
Right.

798
00:32:22,500 --> 00:32:26,340
I know Justin and I have talked about this, but he does it for the week too for his kids

799
00:32:26,340 --> 00:32:31,500
and he every day puts out or Abby and Justin put out a plate of fruits and vegetables for

800
00:32:31,500 --> 00:32:32,940
the kids that they can pick on.

801
00:32:32,940 --> 00:32:34,620
They can just pick on them.

802
00:32:34,620 --> 00:32:35,620
You're hungry.

803
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:36,620
Cool.

804
00:32:36,620 --> 00:32:37,620
There's fruits and vegetables on the table.

805
00:32:37,620 --> 00:32:38,620
Go get them.

806
00:32:38,620 --> 00:32:39,620
Brilliant.

807
00:32:39,620 --> 00:32:40,620
You know, instead of every five seconds, Dean will come up.

808
00:32:40,620 --> 00:32:41,940
I'm hungry.

809
00:32:41,940 --> 00:32:43,140
I want a Nutri-Grain Bar.

810
00:32:43,140 --> 00:32:46,460
No, go on the table and get the peppers that are sliced up.

811
00:32:46,460 --> 00:32:50,740
Pick off the net and eat it.

812
00:32:50,740 --> 00:32:52,980
But no, this is for everybody.

813
00:32:52,980 --> 00:32:53,980
It is doable for everyone.

814
00:32:53,980 --> 00:32:54,980
Yeah.

815
00:32:54,980 --> 00:32:58,540
It's a household that isn't just for you.

816
00:32:58,540 --> 00:33:02,820
I think that's really important to say because I think the majority of people have other

817
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:04,320
people to think about.

818
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:11,020
I do think that you kind of have to be on the same page with your spouse if you live

819
00:33:11,020 --> 00:33:17,420
with a spouse in terms of everything we're talking about.

820
00:33:17,420 --> 00:33:24,020
Because if you're going to make the chicken in different spices and flavors, easy, done.

821
00:33:24,020 --> 00:33:25,020
Yeah.

822
00:33:25,020 --> 00:33:26,420
Like barbecue, you like lemon pepper.

823
00:33:26,420 --> 00:33:27,420
Yeah.

824
00:33:27,420 --> 00:33:28,860
Like you don't have to make a second meal.

825
00:33:28,860 --> 00:33:32,940
No, it is hard when your spouse is like, oh, you're eating that salad with chicken on

826
00:33:32,940 --> 00:33:33,940
top.

827
00:33:33,940 --> 00:33:35,060
I'm going to have a burger and fries.

828
00:33:35,060 --> 00:33:36,220
That is definitely hard.

829
00:33:36,220 --> 00:33:38,740
Well, you do, you boo.

830
00:33:38,740 --> 00:33:39,740
You do you.

831
00:33:39,740 --> 00:33:40,740
Yeah.

832
00:33:40,740 --> 00:33:43,100
Did you leave that out on the counter all day for him to pick on?

833
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:44,100
No.

834
00:33:44,100 --> 00:33:51,020
But if your kids are not fruit and veggie kids, because I know some kids aren't, the more

835
00:33:51,020 --> 00:33:55,940
you put it in front of them and they don't have any other option, the more they will

836
00:33:55,940 --> 00:34:01,500
get to eat it, get to be like, okay, this isn't so bad, or you can put spices on it,

837
00:34:01,500 --> 00:34:02,980
or you can dip it in ranch.

838
00:34:02,980 --> 00:34:09,020
I know that's not everybody's favorite, but if you want your kids to eat carrots or celery,

839
00:34:09,020 --> 00:34:13,980
maybe let them dip it in ranch dressing, maybe let them dip it in Greek dressing, put a little

840
00:34:13,980 --> 00:34:15,420
peanut butter on the celery.

841
00:34:15,420 --> 00:34:20,340
There are ways to, I'm going to do it, jazz up the fruits and vegetables.

842
00:34:20,340 --> 00:34:21,340
I did jazz.

843
00:34:21,340 --> 00:34:24,580
Jazz hands, but only with her four out of five fingers.

844
00:34:24,580 --> 00:34:27,780
That was so upsetting.

845
00:34:27,780 --> 00:34:30,140
But the more you put it in front of them, the more they'll do it.

846
00:34:30,140 --> 00:34:31,140
It's true.

847
00:34:31,140 --> 00:34:36,180
Cut up apple sizes and get the cinnamon sugar shaker, like spice thing from like McCormick

848
00:34:36,180 --> 00:34:37,180
or whatever.

849
00:34:37,180 --> 00:34:40,900
Yes, it's cinnamon sugar, but you're getting them to eat apples and it's in little bits,

850
00:34:40,900 --> 00:34:41,900
so it's not that bad.

851
00:34:41,900 --> 00:34:42,900
Yeah.

852
00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:44,300
My kids have a banana with cinnamon on it every morning.

853
00:34:44,300 --> 00:34:50,020
We cut it up in little pieces and we put cinnamon on it and they're getting a full banana

854
00:34:50,020 --> 00:34:51,460
filling their stomachs.

855
00:34:51,460 --> 00:34:53,700
Yes, it's got cinnamon on it, but cinnamon is great.

856
00:34:53,700 --> 00:34:54,700
Yeah.

857
00:34:54,700 --> 00:34:56,820
Cinnamon is an adaptogen.

858
00:34:56,820 --> 00:34:58,700
I also put cinnamon on our overnight.

859
00:34:58,700 --> 00:34:59,700
Oh, you do?

860
00:34:59,700 --> 00:35:00,700
I forgot that.

861
00:35:00,700 --> 00:35:01,700
Yeah.

862
00:35:01,700 --> 00:35:02,700
I, yep.

863
00:35:02,700 --> 00:35:03,700
Yes.

864
00:35:03,700 --> 00:35:08,980
I put it in the shaker or if I'm making it in the morning like as is, I just put it

865
00:35:08,980 --> 00:35:09,980
on top.

866
00:35:09,980 --> 00:35:12,980
I hate cinnamon.

867
00:35:12,980 --> 00:35:15,180
What?

868
00:35:15,180 --> 00:35:17,300
I hate it.

869
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:19,900
Didn't you eat the Taco Bell cinnamon twist with us?

870
00:35:19,900 --> 00:35:20,900
No, not once.

871
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:21,900
That was just me and dad.

872
00:35:21,900 --> 00:35:22,900
And Julie and Billy.

873
00:35:22,900 --> 00:35:23,900
No.

874
00:35:23,900 --> 00:35:26,100
Oh my God, I love cinnamon.

875
00:35:26,100 --> 00:35:27,820
Cinnamon sugar or just cinnamon?

876
00:35:27,820 --> 00:35:29,780
Just cinnamon.

877
00:35:29,780 --> 00:35:31,420
I don't think I could live without that.

878
00:35:31,420 --> 00:35:32,420
You have your granola?

879
00:35:32,420 --> 00:35:33,420
I'm going to have cinnamon.

880
00:35:33,420 --> 00:35:34,940
No, I absolutely hate cinnamon.

881
00:35:34,940 --> 00:35:35,940
You're annoying.

882
00:35:35,940 --> 00:35:36,940
Okay.

883
00:35:36,940 --> 00:35:37,940
Okay.

884
00:35:37,940 --> 00:35:38,940
All right.

885
00:35:38,940 --> 00:35:45,220
So if all of that wasn't enough because you just can't get enough, we have pretty awesome

886
00:35:45,220 --> 00:35:46,940
real tips and real extra tips for you.

887
00:35:46,940 --> 00:35:54,140
So let's get into the real extra nitty gritty of it.

888
00:35:54,140 --> 00:36:00,060
Your real tip is about the frozen section of your refrigerator setup.

889
00:36:00,060 --> 00:36:01,540
The freezer if you will.

890
00:36:01,540 --> 00:36:08,420
I like a lot of frozen vegetables and I like frozen fruit in terms of making smoothies

891
00:36:08,420 --> 00:36:10,460
and stuff.

892
00:36:10,460 --> 00:36:12,660
But all of them are already bagged obviously.

893
00:36:12,660 --> 00:36:13,660
Right.

894
00:36:13,660 --> 00:36:14,660
Right?

895
00:36:14,660 --> 00:36:15,660
Like there's nothing.

896
00:36:15,660 --> 00:36:17,860
It's just how it comes.

897
00:36:17,860 --> 00:36:21,740
But you still have to open the bag and you still have to defrost it or you have to, if

898
00:36:21,740 --> 00:36:23,300
you're me, you have to like slam it on the counter.

899
00:36:23,300 --> 00:36:24,300
Slam it on the counter.

900
00:36:24,300 --> 00:36:25,300
Yup.

901
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:26,500
It's really frozen.

902
00:36:26,500 --> 00:36:28,740
And do the whole process.

903
00:36:28,740 --> 00:36:34,420
But if you baggy them individually for a portion of a meal, because you're going to take, like

904
00:36:34,420 --> 00:36:38,540
at the end of the night I like to make frozen, Harley taught me this, which I think dad taught

905
00:36:38,540 --> 00:36:39,540
you.

906
00:36:39,540 --> 00:36:40,540
We've talked about it before.

907
00:36:40,540 --> 00:36:42,460
Frozen vegetables with vinegar in the microwave.

908
00:36:42,460 --> 00:36:43,460
So good.

909
00:36:43,460 --> 00:36:44,460
So good.

910
00:36:44,460 --> 00:36:45,460
Sounds ridiculous.

911
00:36:45,460 --> 00:36:46,460
Very good.

912
00:36:46,460 --> 00:36:50,140
Like I said, a mixed bag of frozen vegetables.

913
00:36:50,140 --> 00:36:51,460
But you still have to go through the process.

914
00:36:51,460 --> 00:36:52,460
It still takes time.

915
00:36:52,460 --> 00:36:57,020
When I get home at 8.30 at night, I'm like, I don't even want to do that.

916
00:36:57,020 --> 00:36:58,020
I know.

917
00:36:58,020 --> 00:37:01,260
Like I don't even want to put that in the microwave, which is the least amount of work you could

918
00:37:01,260 --> 00:37:03,460
possibly do in a kitchen.

919
00:37:03,460 --> 00:37:10,540
But if you pre-baggy the frozen vegetables that you have, that eliminates the process.

920
00:37:10,540 --> 00:37:16,180
Like if I, it's Tuesday, I'm at a meal prep, I'm going to do that to my frozen food.

921
00:37:16,180 --> 00:37:20,780
If you're a smoothie maker, do it with the frozen fruit.

922
00:37:20,780 --> 00:37:22,700
This is really hard for me to set.

923
00:37:22,700 --> 00:37:23,700
I know.

924
00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:24,700
I'm watching it.

925
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:25,700
And I'm nervous for you.

926
00:37:25,700 --> 00:37:27,700
My brain is like sludge.

927
00:37:27,700 --> 00:37:28,700
Yeah.

928
00:37:28,700 --> 00:37:30,100
And I'm trying to talk through the sludge.

929
00:37:30,100 --> 00:37:32,260
I'm watching it happen in real time.

930
00:37:32,260 --> 00:37:35,500
I think it was your jazz hands.

931
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:39,540
So pre-portion your smoothie items as well.

932
00:37:39,540 --> 00:37:40,540
There's them.

933
00:37:40,540 --> 00:37:41,540
What do you have to do?

934
00:37:41,540 --> 00:37:43,740
You have to take it out of the bag, dump it in the blender and it's done.

935
00:37:43,740 --> 00:37:44,740
Add some milk.

936
00:37:44,740 --> 00:37:45,740
Whatever you do.

937
00:37:45,740 --> 00:37:46,740
But it's done.

938
00:37:46,740 --> 00:37:47,740
We forget.

939
00:37:47,740 --> 00:37:51,500
I tend to forget about the freezer stuff sometimes, especially if you don't have as much time.

940
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:58,740
But if you are a frozen food person, veggies, fruits specifically, this is a really great

941
00:37:58,740 --> 00:38:02,260
way to be efficient with all of that as well.

942
00:38:02,260 --> 00:38:06,140
I'm going to do that because I totally, my freezer is full of stuff.

943
00:38:06,140 --> 00:38:07,700
I don't even know what's in there.

944
00:38:07,700 --> 00:38:09,180
And it saves up room.

945
00:38:09,180 --> 00:38:10,180
Yeah.

946
00:38:10,180 --> 00:38:11,180
As well.

947
00:38:11,180 --> 00:38:14,020
Which I'm thinking of your freezer and it's hard to open the door and shut the door.

948
00:38:14,020 --> 00:38:15,540
She has one of the ones on the bottom.

949
00:38:15,540 --> 00:38:16,540
Bottom.

950
00:38:16,540 --> 00:38:17,540
Which I don't enjoy.

951
00:38:17,540 --> 00:38:18,540
No, neither do I.

952
00:38:18,540 --> 00:38:19,540
Yeah.

953
00:38:19,540 --> 00:38:22,020
But it would save up a lot of room that way.

954
00:38:22,020 --> 00:38:24,140
And if you, you know, threw some of the ice cream out.

955
00:38:24,140 --> 00:38:27,940
Ice cream and like frozen bananas that I keep meaning to make banana bread with.

956
00:38:27,940 --> 00:38:28,940
Just in case.

957
00:38:28,940 --> 00:38:32,220
I just threw mine out because I was like, these are actually really bad now.

958
00:38:32,220 --> 00:38:33,220
Yeah.

959
00:38:33,220 --> 00:38:34,220
I need to just get rid of them.

960
00:38:34,220 --> 00:38:35,220
Yeah.

961
00:38:35,220 --> 00:38:36,220
All right.

962
00:38:36,220 --> 00:38:41,020
So the next, the tip of the week, it's called be fun.

963
00:38:41,020 --> 00:38:42,780
Don't be all unfun.

964
00:38:42,780 --> 00:38:48,820
I hate that I know what you're referencing now due to BravoCon episode 80 or something.

965
00:38:48,820 --> 00:38:50,380
What's up, Sarah?

966
00:38:50,380 --> 00:38:51,540
Be fun.

967
00:38:51,540 --> 00:38:54,500
Don't be all unfun.

968
00:38:54,500 --> 00:39:00,260
Means when you have a mental thought in your head that meal prep is going to take a while,

969
00:39:00,260 --> 00:39:01,540
it's not fun.

970
00:39:01,540 --> 00:39:03,780
It takes time out of your Sunday.

971
00:39:03,780 --> 00:39:05,020
Make it fun.

972
00:39:05,020 --> 00:39:06,020
Put on music.

973
00:39:06,020 --> 00:39:07,020
Yeah.

974
00:39:07,020 --> 00:39:08,020
That you can jam out to.

975
00:39:08,020 --> 00:39:10,260
For me, the other day, it was Michael Jackson.

976
00:39:10,260 --> 00:39:12,180
Loved it.

977
00:39:12,180 --> 00:39:16,780
And I just spent an hour and a half in the kitchen chopping vegetables, cleaning, listening

978
00:39:16,780 --> 00:39:17,780
to my favorite songs.

979
00:39:17,780 --> 00:39:18,780
I'm picturing you.

980
00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:19,780
Beat it.

981
00:39:19,780 --> 00:39:20,780
Chop it.

982
00:39:20,780 --> 00:39:21,780
Beat it.

983
00:39:21,780 --> 00:39:22,780
Chop it.

984
00:39:22,780 --> 00:39:23,780
That's exactly right.

985
00:39:23,780 --> 00:39:28,580
But I, it passed the time and it made it so much more enjoyable so that you don't dread

986
00:39:28,580 --> 00:39:31,900
it and go, Oh God, I got to go food shopping and then meal prep.

987
00:39:31,900 --> 00:39:33,380
And it's like two hours later.

988
00:39:33,380 --> 00:39:38,180
Well, listen to your favorite songs and sing and have your like, my kids were dancing around.

989
00:39:38,180 --> 00:39:42,260
Like, that's just what we did for an hour and a half, two hours.

990
00:39:42,260 --> 00:39:43,260
And then it's over.

991
00:39:43,260 --> 00:39:44,260
Yeah.

992
00:39:44,260 --> 00:39:47,300
And then you think of all the time you saved and you're having fun doing it.

993
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:48,500
Have your kids help you.

994
00:39:48,500 --> 00:39:52,340
The more they help you and wash the vegetables and see what they're eating, the more they're

995
00:39:52,340 --> 00:39:56,620
apt to like adapt to gin into their daily life.

996
00:39:56,620 --> 00:40:02,060
I need gin right now, actually, preferably with some tonic.

997
00:40:02,060 --> 00:40:03,540
And make it fun.

998
00:40:03,540 --> 00:40:06,140
Don't be all unfun.

999
00:40:06,140 --> 00:40:11,300
I agree though, because I listen to like murder crime podcasts.

1000
00:40:11,300 --> 00:40:12,300
Yeah.

1001
00:40:12,300 --> 00:40:13,300
Same thing.

1002
00:40:13,300 --> 00:40:14,300
Totally.

1003
00:40:14,300 --> 00:40:15,300
Well, yeah, I'm chopping.

1004
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:16,300
It's great.

1005
00:40:16,300 --> 00:40:17,300
No, I'm kidding.

1006
00:40:17,300 --> 00:40:18,300
But it has the time and listening to a story.

1007
00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:23,300
Like, I'm not really paying attention to, I guess, not how long it is because I know

1008
00:40:23,300 --> 00:40:26,580
that the story is going to end at the most.

1009
00:40:26,580 --> 00:40:27,580
It's like an hour.

1010
00:40:27,580 --> 00:40:28,580
Yeah.

1011
00:40:28,580 --> 00:40:29,940
And you can just go on autopilot really and just listen.

1012
00:40:29,940 --> 00:40:30,940
Exactly.

1013
00:40:30,940 --> 00:40:34,940
I'm chopping, I'm pushing, I'm doing stuff that I know that I want to do, but I'm really

1014
00:40:34,940 --> 00:40:37,060
listening to the story and it's like a really, it's fun.

1015
00:40:37,060 --> 00:40:38,060
It's a good time.

1016
00:40:38,060 --> 00:40:39,060
Yeah.

1017
00:40:39,060 --> 00:40:42,060
I like that, actually, a lot.

1018
00:40:42,060 --> 00:40:43,060
Thanks.

1019
00:40:43,060 --> 00:40:44,060
Proud of you.

1020
00:40:44,060 --> 00:40:48,780
And that takes care of, remember when you were like, we used to have dance parties in

1021
00:40:48,780 --> 00:40:52,060
COVID all the time and we stopped doing that.

1022
00:40:52,060 --> 00:40:53,660
And that's a good way to get that back.

1023
00:40:53,660 --> 00:40:54,660
Yes.

1024
00:40:54,660 --> 00:40:55,660
Now that they're home.

1025
00:40:55,660 --> 00:40:57,580
Yeah, it's on a Sunday, so the kids are home.

1026
00:40:57,580 --> 00:41:01,020
And yeah, sometimes I'm like, oh my gosh, I should be doing something with the kids.

1027
00:41:01,020 --> 00:41:05,220
I don't want to take part in my Sunday away from them by like doing my meals stuff, my

1028
00:41:05,220 --> 00:41:07,460
food, have them involved.

1029
00:41:07,460 --> 00:41:11,740
Play their favorite song, let them dance around, have them, you know, Melody's 10 now.

1030
00:41:11,740 --> 00:41:14,500
She was cutting some of the peppers because she likes peppers.

1031
00:41:14,500 --> 00:41:15,860
And then it's like a family thing.

1032
00:41:15,860 --> 00:41:16,860
Yeah.

1033
00:41:16,860 --> 00:41:17,860
I love that.

1034
00:41:17,860 --> 00:41:19,380
I love that so much.

1035
00:41:19,380 --> 00:41:22,220
Definitely play some Michael Jackson in our house.

1036
00:41:22,220 --> 00:41:25,180
It's Michael Jackson, Ben Platt, Connor Price.

1037
00:41:25,180 --> 00:41:26,180
Imagine Dragons.

1038
00:41:26,180 --> 00:41:28,900
Or the Trolls soundtrack.

1039
00:41:28,900 --> 00:41:29,900
Or Trolls.

1040
00:41:29,900 --> 00:41:36,500
But yeah, all of those, you could, you know, put on a set list and have a little concert

1041
00:41:36,500 --> 00:41:37,980
while you're making food.

1042
00:41:37,980 --> 00:41:39,340
Listen to this while you're doing it.

1043
00:41:39,340 --> 00:41:42,380
Oh, you could totally, you know.

1044
00:41:42,380 --> 00:41:47,900
So yeah, I want to shout out to Bridget who kind of emailed me about meal prepping and

1045
00:41:47,900 --> 00:41:51,180
I was like, my God, we need to spread the word.

1046
00:41:51,180 --> 00:41:53,820
We need to share this with everyone.

1047
00:41:53,820 --> 00:41:58,900
So you can thank Bridget if you see her at Seafit in the next upcoming classes because

1048
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:00,020
she was the inspiration.

1049
00:42:00,020 --> 00:42:04,100
And I just think it's really, it's a really good way we're getting into September.

1050
00:42:04,100 --> 00:42:05,100
Schedules start to amp up.

1051
00:42:05,100 --> 00:42:09,100
But even if you don't have kids, like things just feel like it changes in September and

1052
00:42:09,100 --> 00:42:11,300
not for the easy breezy, right?

1053
00:42:11,300 --> 00:42:14,940
No, you want to set yourself up for the year, set set up for success.

1054
00:42:14,940 --> 00:42:17,420
And September is like the new January.

1055
00:42:17,420 --> 00:42:21,180
You want to, you start over, you know, like it is.

1056
00:42:21,180 --> 00:42:22,180
Yeah.

1057
00:42:22,180 --> 00:42:23,180
Happy New Year.

1058
00:42:23,180 --> 00:42:24,180
But it's true.

1059
00:42:24,180 --> 00:42:29,780
Like if you work a nine to five or any type of, any job, that's the last thing you want

1060
00:42:29,780 --> 00:42:33,180
to do is be like, I have to think about what I'm eating every single, I saw something.

1061
00:42:33,180 --> 00:42:37,420
It was like, I didn't know as an adult, I would be only thinking about what my next

1062
00:42:37,420 --> 00:42:40,620
meal was for the rest of my life.

1063
00:42:40,620 --> 00:42:41,620
Why?

1064
00:42:41,620 --> 00:42:42,620
There's no need.

1065
00:42:42,620 --> 00:42:43,620
Do it one day a week.

1066
00:42:43,620 --> 00:42:44,620
Done.

1067
00:42:44,620 --> 00:42:47,380
And it takes up so much more brain power for you to do other things.

1068
00:42:47,380 --> 00:42:49,860
So we hope this helped you.

1069
00:42:49,860 --> 00:42:51,860
I'm certainly ready to go meal prep right now.

1070
00:42:51,860 --> 00:42:52,860
I'm very excited about it.

1071
00:42:52,860 --> 00:42:53,860
I'm hungry.

1072
00:42:53,860 --> 00:42:57,980
And very usual.

1073
00:42:57,980 --> 00:43:02,740
We hope you remember that you are always fit to be real and always allowed to be a little

1074
00:43:02,740 --> 00:43:03,740
extra.

1075
00:43:03,740 --> 00:43:04,740
That's a lot.

1076
00:43:04,740 --> 00:43:05,740
Did you just say extra?

1077
00:43:05,740 --> 00:43:06,740
Yeah, always a lot.

1078
00:43:06,740 --> 00:43:07,740
Yeah.

1079
00:43:07,740 --> 00:43:08,740
Keeping it.

1080
00:43:08,740 --> 00:43:09,740
Okay.
