lizza told cool accident she's particularly good at whipping up breakfast foods whether it's quote eggs potatoes omelette French toast pancakes as have post reported there are I thought she was [Music] vegan what is up guys it's Ariel from Ariel's advice and today we're going to be reacting to a full day of eating from lizo so for those of you that don't know who I am I'm a registered dietitian in the State of Florida and I got my bachelor's and master's degree in nutrition and dietetics and lizo is an American singer/ songwriter and she's really well known for her influence in body positivity keep in mind this videos from the list so I don't know how accurate this is going to be but regardless let's check it out lizo is a role model for body positivity the kind starting off with a body positivity although I do think it's very important to love yourself at any weight and size I do think that the body positivity actually makes people comfortable and actually like glorify being obese I don't think that's a form of being positive with your body I believe being positive is to treat your body like a temple and exercise daily have a healthy nutritious diet so you can live as long and healthy as possible because it's not only how long you live but it's a quality of life while you're on this Earth and in my opinion I feel like the body positivity movement and with obesity that increases your risk of diabetes hypertension cancer and many more diseases but let's check this out kind of endlessly confident woman who isn't afraid to flaunt her curves and who unashamedly loves herself lizo is even open about her diet here's a look at what the Grammy winning artist eats in a typical day you have to just kind of realize that this is it you know like you're not going to change that is the most terrible advice ever to give someone and this is very common for people that have been obese for a long time they tend to develop this identity as the big person as the obese person and this becomes part of them that's why nutrition has a lot to do with psychology and most dietitians work with psychologists and eating disorder dietitians so when you have this identity that you're this obese person you're going to tend to do choices and develop habits that align with this identity so before you even start on a diet it's very important to get your mental right before you even start because then it's going to be a uphill battle but let's see what she eats in a day lizo can make any setting her own personal playground but when there's food involved she's really in her element while chatting to the cut she partook in some traditional Caribbean food at a restaurant in Brooklyn noting that if there are only black people in the kitchen it's usually a good sign sounds racist after ordering oxtails jerk wings and plantains and garlic sauce with Margaritas to chase it all down lizza revealed her all with Margaritas to chase it all down so having alcohol with your meals adds a lot more calories than you think because alcohol has 7 calories per gram and yeah it's okay to have a drink or two just know that certain drinks have more calories than others like margaritas or the sugary drinks if you're going to have drinks try to just have a hard alcohol or shots because you just need less alcohol to get a buzz if that's what you're looking for I'm fave she told the publication plantain is my favorite food in the world I love plantains as well since I'm Cuban I'm used to eating plantains throughout my whole childhood just know that plantains have a bunch of calories because not only is it a starchy fruit you're also frying it and when you add oil to the mix this adds a lot more calories just for reference around two tbspoon of any type of oil is usually around 120 to 150 calories it's easy to see why lizo loves the fruit as much as she does as Healthline explained plantains are a less sweet starchier variety of bananas that are a major component of diets and tropical plantains are actually Starcher than bananas but okay in tropical countries unlike bananas plantains are cooked before eating the battle of the burgers is one that's played out since the beginning of time or at least the beginning of fast food and looks set to rage on for the foreseeable future whether you prefer In-N-Out Shake Shack or some other variety depends largely on where you live and what chain of fast food restaurant is easily accessible to you Five Guys has delicious burgers and they use the peanut oil I believe lizo is a major Shake Shack proponent because as she told Nasty Gal it was their quote First Gourmet fast food experience however when it comes to the Stars go-to there's no competition she told the Five Guys the publication what Burger is the best fast food restaurant on the planet arguing that The Texas Chain is superior to In-N-Out which originated in California lizo explained it's just better it's better ingredients they're not all over the place they're just in Texas better ingredients better Pizza wait no Burgers so they can focus there and they have breakfast taquitos with cheese and egg and hash browns in them so delicious oh and a honey butter chicken biscuit lizo flirted with being a vegetarian for several years but in 2020 lizo went full on vegan in the so for those of you that don't know I was actually vegan for 10 years so I know what it's like you'd be surprised how much milk is in common foods even chips I know the struggle for a Tik Tok video that detailed her new way of eating she said as a new vegan I'm enjoying exploring flavors from plants and plant-based proteins every journey is personal and deserves to be celebrated the only uh downside I would say with the vegan diet is that it it is harder to get your protein in for me since I like to work out and hit the gym my protein needs are higher than the regular American so for the regular person as per nutrition guidelines through Aspen the typical person needs 8 to 1 G per kilogram of body weight in protein to start her day off right lizo opts for a super healthy green breakfast smoothie made with coconut water either kale or spinach depending on her mood and some frozen fruit in April 2019 so coconut water is great it has a bunch of electrolytes such as potassium and it makes for a good natural Gatorade if you will I never thought of including it in a smoothie but let's see if this is her typical breakfast Liz to cool accident she's particularly good at whipping up breakfast foods whether it's quote eggs potatoes omelette French toast pancakes as have post reported there are I thought she was vegan several major benefits to kicking the day off with a green smoothie digestion mood and even skin are all positively affected by these concoctions well yeah uh vegetables do improve the skin um especially vegetables with Vitamin A because vitamin A is a precursor to retinoic acid and retinoic acid converts to retinol which is good for the skin so foods such as carrots are really good for the skin and also keep in mind when you make smoothies it actually lowers the fiber content since you're blending it up so it will raise your blood glucose levels a little faster since there's no fiber to slow down the glucose Spike which is not a bad thing so I would just say that uh it will be good as a pre-workout so could have your glucose levels elevated before workout but if you're not diabetic or anything there's nothing to worry about don't get blending like lizo when it comes to lunch lizo opts for a colorful salad made with kale red cabbage broccoli avocado white onions and carrots the emphasis on Kale for both breakfast and lunch is not surprising considering as Healthline advises it's loaded with vitamins minerals and antioxidants and is one of the best greens you can eat by eating a colorful salad lizo is eating the rainbow as children are often encouraged to do as food Revolution explained fruits and vegetables contain a wide variety of vitamins minerals and antioxidants eating a diversity of colorful fruits and vegetables is a simple way to fortify your body with a wide range of these important vitamins and minerals so yeah antioxidants are great uh we can find antioxidants in our food especially in berries and they lower oxidative stress which we get from environmental factors such as pollution smoking and also eating very processed foods such as like uh chips and soda so having antioxidants in your diet helps lower the oxida stress which could cause cancer and other illnesses lizo snack of choice was once flaming hot Cheetos but she admitted to giving them up when embarking on her vegan lifestyle in 2020 plant-based snack ler evil paleo puffs have provided a welcome alternative with lizo noting I dip them in hummus bada boom bada snack a common misconception is that just because a snack is vegan that means that it's healthier so when you break down the word healthy it a lot of people have different definitions but um in her case if she's trying to lose weight the main priority is to eat whole foods that are very nutrient dense that means that they have a lot of nutrition and not that many calories as opposed to calorically dense is that they have a lot of calories and not that much nutrition so even though some she could have a vegan Cheetos that doesn't necessarily make it healthier still looks tasty though the switch makes total sense as a 1 oz serving of flamin' hot cheetah contains 160 calories 11 G of fat and 10% of the day's recommended intake of sodium according to eat this much the same amount of lesser evil paleo Puffs meanwhile yeah that's the serving size but most people including me don't have the serving size they eat four to five times the serving size contains 130 calories 6 G of fat and around 8% of the day's recommended intake of sodium according to their official site lizo may be a vegan but that doesn't mean she has to forgo treats altogether although she admitted on Tik to to not particularly liking diet soda the singer found a vegan diet cola variety she liked because as she put it I needed some sparkles in my throat and okay so a lot of people for some reason are very scared of diet sodas that they think that it contributes to cancer and um this really uh came from a study uh done with artificial sweeteners and rats but they found that the amount of artificial sweetener you have to have for it to be carcinogenic is a lot and personally I think it's better to go for the diet soda and save on those calories and sugar instead of just having the actual soda you can lose a lot of weight by simply just cutting soda or juices out of your diet and as for dessert the singer indulges in a peanut butter and jelly smoothie made with peanut butter frozen strawberries oat peanut butter is another food that a lot of people think that is healthy which it's not unhealthy but I it depends if you get the GIF that has the high fructose corn syrup but peanut butter is very calorically dense so due to its high fat content 1 tblspoon of peanut butter could be around 100 calories so if you're making this in a smoothie I don't know how much he's putting but you could add on the calories very easily especially if you're adding jelly oats oat milk and vanilla protein powder the strawberries will give lizo the sugar Kake she's craving from a dessert while the peanut butter and protein powder provide the necessary protein to keep her feeling full so peanut butter is really not a source of protein it has some protein but it's more a source of fat additionally oat milk is a solid base for the Smoothie as it is a nutrient-rich alternative to traditional cow's milk that may even bone and heart health according to Healthline it's tough to eat healthy at the best of times never mind when you're hung over after a long night of partying hard but lizo isn't one to back down from a challenge and although she admitted on Tik Tok that she quote used to Crave cheesy eggs when hung over she found a vegan alternative to hit the spot the singer uses just egg a plant-based alternative to eggs and mixes it with a Carne aada style bean and corn mixture topped off with a handful of spinach and vegan so nutrition involving for a hangover when you're hung over you T to be very de hydrated because alcohol is a diuretic so you really want to focus on rehydration so this involves obviously drinking water and also replenishing your electrolytes such as potassium and sodium you could do this with some coconut water which I explained earlier and add a pinch of salt into it or eat bananas or crackers eggs are also really good for a hangover because eggs are also really good for a hangover because eggs contain an amino acid called cysteine and cysteine helps break down alahh which is a byproduct of alcohol metabol ISM which gives you those hangover feelings also you can have some avocado which has a lot of potassium which is a good electrolyte to be rehydrated and also fruits and vegetables to help lower that oxidated stress but let's see what lizo eats and vegan cheese vegan bacon is lizzo's side dish of choice and the star knows exactly how to make the vegan variety more bacony frying it in maple syrup to make it quote nice and crunchy and so adding maple syrup again is going to add a lot of calories and it's not going to fill you up as much so with pean peut butter oils all these Foods there is very easy to gain weight on these so if you're watching this and you're actually trying to gain weight you could incorporate some oils in your diet if you struggle to put on weight or peanut butter but if you're trying to lose weight you want to avoid these Foods so let's address the elephant in the room no pun intended I'm pretty sure that this is not what lizo eats in a day let let me see how much she weighs so according to google lizo weighs around 260 lb so I'm pretty sure she's not just having salad and smoothies all day she's probably eating large portions of food and she could still be eating vegan food and gain weight but I believe that the portion sizes are a lot bigger than what this video is disclosing I wish I had a more accurate video but that is it if you learned a thing or two make sure to subscribe to my channel for more
