2019-02-09 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 14 min
Chantal films a day-of-eating and exercise vlog showing parts of her at-home cardio and a seated 20-minute chair workout for elderly/obese viewers, a short stair sprint attempt, a small grocery haul (including Synergy kombucha and Good Bean roasted chickpeas), and multiple meals and snacks across the day (diced pineapple; kombucha; roasted chickpeas; red pepper hummus with sliced red pepper, mini cucumbers, and vegan crispy fingers; a blended smoothie with frozen peas, strawberries, banana, oat milk and flax meal). She discusses logging calories in Lose It, portion control, and accountability (showing measured chips and promising to preserve the bag to prove restraint).
