I just wanted to take a moment to say Thank you. I’m been struggling with all the things you mentioned in this blog post and it great to know that I’m not alone in my logic/thinking and to see where someone has been able and can articulate how they moved passed it all. Thank you for this post. I love the 80/20 rule and the overall message to be kind to yourself.

I just bought the gluten free meal plan for a week and spent a little over two hours in the kitchen last night prepping for the entire week and I just want to thank you for making this super easy to accomplish. I feel very confident that I am going to succeed in making this lifestyle change and am so excited to begin this new chapter of my life. thank you so much!

I loved this from your post:
“Well, first of all, let me tell you this: no flat tummy is going to make you happy like quality time spent with your best friend. So, spend time with your friend – live life! … I’ve been that terrible friend who cancels dinner because she doesn’t want to overeat.”

My sister bought me the Inspiralizer for my September birthday. I’ve since bought 2 more for friends.

Yesterday, I ate Celeriac for the first time in my life. It was a good base for your beef stroganoff (without mushrooms … mushrooms, Ick!).

Forgot to mention that I found nutritional yeast used in the chicken squash pasta recipe at the Atlantic superstore (I live in Nova Scotia Canada) by Bob’s Red mill – large flake nutritional yeast — from Milwaukee Oregon – a 226 g bag. Then I discovered it in the local bulk barn with the bins of spices and could have bought a small amount to try. This is used in the chicken squash pasta recipe and people were having a hard time finding it. Hope this helps.

Bought the gluten free meal plan and spent today prepping some of it. Made the burrito bowl recipe which I thought I’d like the least and loved it. Used sausage instead of chicken because I wanted to make the chicken squash pasta recipe from the other day and forgot to buy chicken for it so using what I bought for the burritos. I have a kuhn Rikon pressure cooker and decided to try the burrito recipe in it instead of the slow cooker. Seemed to work fine. Took about 10 minutes – saluted the sausage first and added the other ingredients and cooked at high pressure 4 minutes, let it sit to release a few minutes and then used quick release. Having the fish recipe for supper. Looks good. Thanks.

Love the post! Thank you for being so honest! I was wondering how do you balance going out to dinner? What do you usually order? I also notice you eat vegan often. Do you try to eat most meals vegan? Or add in meals with meat? Just curious! Thank you! As always, love your posts!

I’d like to know what is included in the meal plans. It sounds like there are shopping lists. If that’s so, that’s a great help. Is there somewhere where we can look to find out what the meal plans include?
Thanks – – – Happy New Year!

Thank you! This is wonderful information. I noticed that you haven’t included eggs in your meal plans. Are eggs considered “clean eating”.

I’ve lost over 40 lbs since March and being Inspiralized has been part of that journey. I bought the Inspiralizer (the best on the market!) and both cookbooks. I even bought two as gifts. One for my sister and one for a dear friend. It’s so much fun to use in the kitchen. I, however, like many others have gotten off track during the holidays. This article has been a wonderful reminder on how to get back on track and be kind to yourself at the same time. I’m going to print it out and put it in my purse to read and remind myself of these pearls of wisdom. I have a long way to go but I’ll get there. You are wise beyond your years, Ali, for figuring this all out while you are still so young! For me, better late than never. 🙂

This is so inspiring! You look amazing! I’ve made some big life changes over the last year as well and have seen great results, but this was a great kick in the pants to get going fresh again NOW (not January!). One of my favorite sayings is “A year from now, you’ll wish you’d started today.” I love your cookbook and I’m inspired to spiralize even more this year. Happy New Year!
