Rachel ends this episode with some wise advice!

Key Takeaways:

  • Batch cooking is the answer.
  • Carbs in different vegan Cream Cheeses:
    • Violife: 8g per 100g (TOO HIGH CARBS)
  • Sainsbury’s Free From 3.4g per 100g – cook with this one! 😊
  • Philadelphia Plant Based Almond & Oat Soft Cheese 2.4g per 100g 😊
  • Lots of little pots to split meals into keto-sized portions. 3 a day. Intermittent fasting.
  • If eating out – lunch, vegan burger (and coleslaw if vegan?) Take out your own mayonnaise!
  • Big tub Hellmann’s vegan mayo – I actually prefer taste of Heinz vegan mayo but I haven’t found it in big catering tubs.
  • Drinks? Spirits are a safe bet – vodka, gin, rum and keep the mixers sugar-free.  Spiced rum but do have a low amount of carbs in.
  • If want wine go for a dry one, less carbs, check vegan.
  • What about cream?
    • Coconut cream – Sainsbury’s is thicker
  • Elmlea Double – lasts in fridge for ages, whippable,
  • Coconut collaborative double
  • Dating someone? Be ready for them not to cook for you, be ready that they may not be keen on your food ☹
  • Eating + breath work:
    • Before eating thank the earth for sun, rain, farmers, processing, packaging, supermarkets etc.
  • Eat consciously – chew x40
  • Taste it
  • Be aware of body feelings
  • When think full stop
  • How to raise your vibration and live a better, more fulfilling life.

    • Rachel is also a hypnotherapist and has developed a ‘free from sugar trance’ that has been effective for a number of people. If you contact me and mention my podcast you can get this for £150 instead of £300 https://www.rachelgtherapy.co.uk/sugar-addiction

    Best Moments:

    • “I’d much prefer to eat something that’s been processed other than an animal – which isn’t necessary anymore is it?”
  • “I want my proteins; I don’t just want vegetables in a sauce - that’s not giving me the nutritious meal that I need!”
  • “I’m sorry, I just don’t like it! I don’t know why! I put lots of flavour with it. I just can’t do tofu!”
  • “We can’t control what is happening outside of us. But we can control what is happening within us.  Our thoughts are not the truth they are just thoughts.  And once we’ve raised our vibration our thinking becomes much more positive, we appreciate so much more.
