MY 400 LB LIFE: DAILY FOOD DIARY

2019-03-22 · YouTube · Foodie Beauty · 17 min

Chantal records a daily food diary while running errands. She stops at Starbucks for a peach white iced tea and considers egg bites or a burrito bowl, discusses starting a prescription pill that seems to curb appetite and reduce anxiety, describes ordering a food journal and a food scale, and explains following a structured low-carb meal plan with portion control. She plans a medical weigh-in on the 8th and shares two meals: a tuna salad (tuna, mayo, sriracha, lettuce, Laughing Cow) and a final meal of chicken sausage with a large salad and shredded mozzarella. She also mentions follow-ups with an eating-disorder clinic and upcoming movie plans.
