and welcome back to my channel in today's video i'll be sharing with you some of the things that
i eat like a full day of eating when i'm on my period when it is that time of the month and i'm
going to be really realistic with you guys and just show you what i actually eat and honestly
this is very realistic for me and i'm not going to try to make it seem as if like i float out of
bed feeling my best self because i actually really don't i feel really hungry and irritated and
so i'm not going to sit here and tell you guys oh my god yes i eat like lots of salad and stuff
like that i mean that is fine if that's you but for me let's get into it so first up i love having
a hot cup of tea first thing when i wake up it makes me feel really good and it's really good
for my digestion as well because like i mentioned i am so bloated on the first like three days of
my period so a hot cup of tea is really soothing you can choose whatever you like but this is how
i like started off the day let us talk about the advil listen this is my lifesaver i actually
really don't get cramps because i am on birth control so my cramps are not really that painful
but if i feel any kind of discomfort i make sure and pop those advil that makes me feel really good
for the rest of the day so i would only take this like on the first day of my period and then of
course it's so important to stay hydrated and i'm doing my chlorophyll water you guys know i like
doing this i feel like if it's because i give so much trouble to drink water throughout the day
and i have to have something that makes me feel really good and i know chlorophyll has
like a ton of added benefits such as detoxing your body and helping with digestion
so if you are familiar with my what i eat in a day videos you know i do intermittent fasting
and that is what i do the majority of the times but when i have my period i just want to eat
so i would start off with getting something good like cereal this is a protein cereal i
love keeping cereal in my apartment especially around times like these because i never know when
i might feel to eat it and this is so good with some fresh fruits like berries you know blueberries
strawberries or something like that and i used oat milk and this makes me feel really really full
it makes me feel very seated and you know it does not make me feel to just be eating crazy crazy
crazy what really helps me is having my apartment stocked up when i know i'm gonna get my period
because i love to eat on my period and i love to eat everything you know making sure i have like
cereal and really good filling items like you will see it makes me have that balance of eating
whatever i crave but not like overdoing it and for me that is something that is very easy to do
since i want to eat everything in sight i wanted a really hearty lunch and that's what i crave so i
did these black bean quesadillas which are so easy to make you just need like these soft shell
tortillas and then you have cheese black beans sour cream vegetables whatever you'd like so i
did use some frozen vegetables because that is more convenient for me since it's just myself
living alone and then i added some like fresh mushrooms and garlic and other little items like
that the only thing i was missing from this was some kind of spinach but i need to find like a
balance in my apartment because since it's just me my bags of spinach tend to rot really quickly
and spoil so i don't know i need to just it just needs to have smaller portions of spinach for
people who live alone i love my pink pot by the way i will have it linked down below so i just did
olive oil garlic and the frozen fajita medley and then i will let that cook up for a while then add
my fresh ingredients like my mushrooms and tomatoes and then let that cook up some more
and then i added my black beans so black beans is just a protein that i like to keep on hand
because i can make little salads little bean salads on quesadillas like this of course you
can use whatever meat you'd like but for me i'm just really like picky i just like having like
shrimp and beans and occasionally salmon in my kitchen oh and tofu is the next one i also have
my free grocery list guide like some essentials that i keep all the time in my space so i'll have
that link down below as well if you'd like to check it out but you guys know i don't eat meat
it's just like seafood and beans and stuff like that so i have my tortilla and i'm just putting
in the filling on half of it and then some shredded mozzarella cheese you guys looking at this right
now i think that i need to make this over because it's so good when i folded it in half i put it
back in the pan you can also put it in a toaster oven to let it get all melty like this i don't
know my camera just did not record that piece but you can tell that it is toasted when i break it
apart and you see all the melted cheese and stuff like that so please don't forget that step because
it makes it have that added crunch and it makes it taste really good so sour cream is like a
weakness that i have and i love that as a dip for so many different things like salads and
like these so i did some dill and topped it with some saiv and oh my gosh chef's kiss you guys
need to try this and like i said you could use whatever meat you'd like oh my gosh i forgot to
also mention spices you can do like mexican spices or like a taco mix spice or something like that
this is just so filling it makes me feel so good when i eat it because it's like a ton of vegetables
and just good things but like the tortilla it just makes me feel really like you know okay i'm full
now i don't have to continue eating and that is what i love and that's why i like to have like a
hearty lunch to keep me through
if i started feeling hungry in the evening time which is kind of unlikely but in the event that
i do and i crave something sweet i like having like a ton of fruits so i have a kiwi strawberries
and blueberries and i make a little platter for that and that's really good but like i said the
quesadillas and having a really hearty lunch kind of helps fill me and i don't feel like peckish
but it's still good to just have some fruits that you can throw and make a little something with
on to dinner now i have been loving this really easy ramen and i think it's because i randomly
picked up this mushroom ramen and it was not overly salty and stuff like that which i really
liked so i would do some chopped garlic and then to my pot i would do olive oil and add the garlic
like you guys this is so easy and again i'm using frozen vegetables do not judge me it is just so
also my pink little chopper and this really gorgeous glass pot i will have it linked down
below there from amazon and i love it so much it's so cute everything in my kitchen is just
looking so cute and i'm just here for it so my garlic ended up almost burning because it got
really really hot quickly and this is the mushroom ramen i was telling you guys about
okay so let me just say ramen is not the healthiest thing to eat and maybe if you have like authentic
noodles that might be better but store-bought convenience is sometimes you know just the
convenient thing to do so i added my ramen water and i would just let that cook for a while until
the noodles are semi like soft then i did the frozen vegetables and the shrimp because i don't
want anything to overcook or my vegetables to get soggy i also added a few drops of the liquid
aminos which is basically like soy sauce but i think a better alternative and for some weird
like i mentioned this ramen packet is not that salty at all so i don't know if it is just like
the mushroom flavor i don't know what it is but that's why i love making it because it does not
make me feel like if i am going to die of salt intake poisoning or something like that so once
everything is cooked and my noodles are really nice and soft and my vegetables and my shrimp
is all pink i you know this is time for your girl to eat this gives me two portions which is really
good because i have some leftovers or you know sometimes i eat the entire thing and why not
i just do whatever my body tells me to do and by adding frozen vegetables or fresh vegetables to
already like store-bought packed ramen it really just boosts the nutritional content to it
and there is lola she has to investigate every single thing that i eat and if you know you know
i normally eat a very low carb dinner so the soup is an exception this time of the month anything
goes and it makes me feel really really good and to help with that chocolate craving ice cream is
like my favorite thing in life and i buy like these haggardness these small scoops like portion
size so i would not sit and eat the entire tub which i contend to do that is the end of this
