This is everything I ate in the week! Please don't forget, I'm not working towards fat loss or muscle building at the moment (I recently had phases of each until early this year), so this is me focussing on training-specific goals and enjoying my workouts! Everyone's diet and nutritional requirements are unique, so this is just for simple meal ideas and sharing how much things can vary for me day to day! Love ya 🤍
Recipes at your request!!:
Matcha Pancakes (makes 8 pancakes):
- 2 cups oats (you can use the same amount of plain flour if you prefer!)
- 2 tbsp matcha powder
- 1 large banana
- 2 cups milk (I used almond milk)
- 3 tsp baking powder
- Optional: sugar, salt, vanilla extract, 1tbsp oil ( I didn’t have any of these in mine but you can season to taste!)
Blend all the ingredients together in a mixer until smooth. Heat a lightly greased pan to medium-high heat and pour the batter. Cook for about 2-3 mins each side or until both sides are golden/greeny brown! Serve with anything you like! The grilled bananas are below 😘⬇️
For the bananas: Slice the bananas in half lengthways. Heat a lightly greased/ non-stick griddle pan to high heat. Add the bananas flat-side down and heat until golden brown stripes appear! Enjoy ❤️
Mac’n’cheese (serves 4):
- I followed this recipe (eatlean.com/about/blog/low-fa...) but made a few swaps:
- Instead of using 2 pots of eat lean, I swapped one pot for dairy lea spreadable
- Instead of the bacon medallions, I just chopped 100g ham slices
- I didn’t have eat lean shaker so didn’t use it… but I don’t think it makes much of a difference (:
Flat bread (makes 4):
- 250g plain flour
- 250g greek yoghurt (5% fat)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: herbs, seeds, olive oil (I didn’t use any of these but they would all work!)
Mix the ingredient together into a bowl and knead for 5 minutes. You can cover the dough and leave it to rest for 2 hours if you wish - I skip this step often and I don’t personally notice a difference! Split the dough into 4 and roll it out so it’s about 3mm thin. Heat a lightly greased pan to high heat and lie the flat bread flat, cook for ~2mins both sides - it should puff a little bit! If there are a few brown spots that’s great too! Repeat for the remaining 3 flat breads and keep them warm in the oven or wrapped in foil until the remainder are cooked! Serve with chicken, tzatziki, tomatoes and cucumber!

Can we please just talk about how many skills this woman has outside of fitness!? Altering a jumper for herself - no problem! Cooking meals that are all delicious and totally look like they are out of a fancy cookbook - you got it! Running several businesses whilst managing her time and health - killing it! Making me laugh out (way too) loud at least five times in 30 minutes through a computer screen - no effort needed 😎 The list could go on and on and the same goes for Mario.
I truly admire your sense of balance, it's sooo reassuring to watch. Thank you so much for being such an inspiration Natacha! sending big hugs xx ❤
and don't forget her tracking all of those calories... I already get overwhelmed when tracking one meal :D
Agreed
somehow I get both inspired and ashamed of myself while watching her :)))) but mostly inspired...sadly it goes away before I actually make a change :))
YESSS!!
@@sdestiny414 Ikr, I want to track my calories just out of curiosity but have no idea ( or patience) to do it. I get lost pretty easily 😅
whenever I am having a day where I don't feel great I always come watch one of your videos for your levelheadedness, joy, and knowledge ! It's infectious and makes my day so much better too :) ♥️
ahh thank you so much!! we had a lot of fun filming this one!! I had like 12 hours of footage from the week so it was super hard to cut it down ahah!! xxx
@@natachaoceane a new venture: Natacha Océane uncut 😂 and now with all the tasty food ideas I've been watching I'm set to grocery shop this week ... Bagel with cream cheese and salmon I am coming ....
I agree, @Natacha i always save your videos when i see you have a new one, they brighten my day. thanks for being you 💓
omg same, I concur!!! I love Natacha and her positive energy so much, it's contagious!🥰
I absolutely agree. ❤️❤️
I love that Mario contributes more and more in front of the camera, I love to see the banter between the two of you =)
Omg you know what would he great? Like a weekly grocery haul! You manage to always make delicious meals and would love to see what you have in your fridge to whip up all these delicious recipes
Does anyone else's mood just go up by x1000 when watching Natacha on CZcams? You make me smile girl, I love when you release new videos. Hope you're keeping well Lovely! xx
totally!!! she's the human equivallent of a golden retriever - doesn't sound right but I hope people will get it. she is just so inspiring and goofy and amazing, without making us feel bad for not being equally awersome -not sure how she does it, to be honest :)))
You are literally the only youtuber I can watch chat about food and working out and come out of it feeling really good. I just want to commend you on putting *actual* wellness out there. My brain is so messed up from all of the contradictory and strict messaging it has gotten over my lifetime. But I feel like just hanging out with you and chatting about your process is like having a friend I aspire to be more like. It's nice. So thanks, bud
Agree! I am pretty sure I have tried every food protocol out there and I always end up feeling disconnected from myself. It's so good to finally trust my food choices are the right choices fo me, because it's my body! This is the work I do with my clients for food freedom! I am finding this is so needed!
If it's helpful, I'm always happy to share the recipes for the meals + snacks I made in this video in the description box ❤🔥just let me know which ones you'd like and I've got your back 🤍
EDIT: OK the most popularly requested recipes (matcha pancakes, mac'n'cheese + flat breads) are in the description box now! There's a character limit though so I can probably get a couple more in but that might be my limit. Let me know which ones! 🤍🤍
I’d love the recipe for the matcha pancakes pls! 🍵
Marios miso-honey-tuna salad looked soo good as well! 🥗
Definitely the mac and cheese recipe!!!
The Mac & cheese plz 🤌
Agree with Julia C - recipe for the matcha pancakes please!
Congratulations to Lululemon on getting you as an ambasador! Lululemon --- we need Natacha to design a collection (& possibly hand alter the pieces in her living room? haha!) and have it be available for purchase asap please. Also, Mario is just a delight. I love your content so much Natacha, congratulations on everything and thank you for continuing to put out such great, engaging content.
I'm drooling about how good those meals look. Also these WIEIA week videos are my favourites from you so definitely film more!! Makes me happy in a weird way haha
as someone recovering from an ED these videos make me so happy, just motivation that i could build a healthy relationship with food too, so THANK YOU SO MUCH, NATACHA
You have no idea how much that means to me and how happy it makes me to hear you talk about building a healthy and happy relationship with food. You more than deserve it, and I totally believe you’re gonna get there and find so much goodness in that freedom 🫶
Hey Sophie...I am also recovering from an ED, and I agree these videos are so freeing. It's like permission granted to just eat! If you ever wanted to meet remotely for a quick hello (I am US based), it would nice to connect. I am a food coach, but no strings and no pressure :)
It's really calming to see you eating so healthy and wholesome without meal prepped bento boxes. So nice to see how little effort and stress has to go into that kind of eating! these what i eat in a week also make me realize just how chill ur what i eat in a day videos usually are. it's nice to see the bigger picture of how u fit in (or don't fit in) eating/cooking/training into a workday❤️❤️❤️ thank u for another amazing video
This is exactly what I needed! 🥰♥️ I love your content and your energy! Made my day
ahh thank you Elissavet!! Sending you lots of happiness your way!! ❤❤❤
Congrats on your lululemon ambassadorship! 🙌🏼
I loved this! I always thought my yo-yoing appetite was strange, but this video helped me realize just how normal AND necessary it is for our body to require those different amounts of food as our hormones and activity levels shift throughout the week.
Yes, and trusting my own hunger signals vs questioning them, which perpetuates the cycle of disordered eating!
I want to send you a massive thank you for videos like these!! I consistently fall back into unhealthy eating patterns but these encourage me to get back on the right track. I also bought your recipe guides and I’m excited to try them! Plus you and Mario are so entertaining to watch 😂
hey Anna!! I'm glad these videos help (: sometimes it helps seeing that you can enjoy food and achieve your goals (: I hope you love the recipes in there, I turn to them all the time when I feel uninspired!! All my love!! xxx
I second this!!!!
SO happy for you for your Lululemon sponsorship! I'm so glad you were able to find a company you connect with again. Also, need to try that yogurt flatbread thing... looks easy. Lots of love❤❤❤
I really needed this video today. I have been working through an ed for a while now and I just needed this reminder that your body is the best judge of how much food you need and I don't need to freak out when that fluctuates. Love you!!!
100%! I am also recovering from an ED. I coach women on this topic (certified life and food and nutrition coach). if you ever wanted to connect, it would be an honor to help. No pressure. Much love.
does anybody see how much EFFORT Natascha puts on each video she makes? it's extraordinary !
I’m on week 8 of your Cut program, and I’m feeling great! I love having the guidance without having to follow a video while I workout. It allows for interruptions from my kids. I’ve also never had a healthy mindset around food, and you’ve helped me so much in my approach. I’m usually all or nothing, and if I eat a cookie I throw in the towel and eat the whole bag. Restrictions are so bad for my psychology. I truly appreciate your influence! It’s too early to tell, but I think you’re changing my life for the better! I can’t even explain how grateful I am for you.
literally love how you’ve been posting regularly recently, and it’s always great content. was honestly just thinking about watching ur old vids recently and boom here ya are. have a super cool day natacha
This year I am embracing fitness in a way that I previously never thought possible for me, and revisiting your content has been such a joy to me! I’ve also been sharing it with anyone who will listen lol. Thank you Natacha!
I have to say, on the second workout your form is EVERYTHING. Precise movements and balance, even though the ball was tough you rocked it. Very impressive.
Absolutely love your content! I love how you show what balance looks like. You train hard but you also eat well and don’t restrict, which is so so refreshing to see. So many health and fitness influencers or social media personalities show toxic advice and tips for ‘healthy eating’ or ‘weight loss’ that is so harmful. So thank you thank you thank you ❤️
I suffer from eating disorders and at times it can be very hard to deal to everything that comes with them: the blame, the body dysmorphia, the difficult relationship with the gym. Anyway, everytime I watch One of your videos I think I can do it. I think that It is possibile for me to have a normal life and to stop struggling every single day with every single meal. And I find myself smiling while watching your videos because you have the power of making it all look so simple and enjoyable.
Thank you for this kind of content. You really make my day!
Sending love! You've got this. If you ever wanted to meet remotely, I would be happy to chat (I am a food coach). No strings...
This channel gives me such a huge motivation boost! I really need to be reminded sometimes of why I started a body recomp journey. To be strong, capable and just enjoy the day to day for every little gem and spark we find in life. Natacha’s positivity is infectious; it fuels me! 😄❤️⭐️ Thank you for finding the time to create for CZcams amongst all of your other projects and endeavours!!!
Blessed with a 30 minute video. Thank you for this, Natacha!
I just started my journey as a software engineer and am finding such a hard time finding a place for fitness now a days. Your videos inspire me every time I watch them. So truly, thank you for your joyful personality and lighthearted and fun videos
Your video are honestly something else. The time and effect you put it is above and beyond. We are so thankful for online people like you!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💕
Recently started watching your content.. I have to make a confession. I’ve definitely been subscribed for a long while. I followed when I was on my 876898th time of starting a “weight loss” journey. But never got around to actually watching your videos only bc my motivation was quickly puffed out in an instant. On my recommendations list sometime a few weeks ago, I believe it was a running video of yours came up and I decided on a whim to click on it and give it a try. I was doing some mundane task and I just needed to have something on in the bg and none of my other faves had uploaded. I clicked out of sheer chance, I listened to your thought provoking monologues bc it resonated with my jumbled up brain, and I binged the rest of your videos bc I was instantly hooked on your energy. Your drive. Enthusiasm. And your genuine passion for doing what you love. Is this a quick, messy and brain dump of a love letter?? Maybe?? But it’s something I felt I needed to tell you even if you don’t get a chance to read it right away. I hope I can keep you, your videos and Mario in my life for a long long time from these days onward! ♥️
Natacha you are such a breath of fresh air! Thank you for showing how its possible to live life and reach your fitness goals at the same time ❤️ I've been following you for over 5 years now, and my mindset has definitely evolved with you 💕
Yay!! I needed a Natacha video today. Currently struggling with a lower back injury and I just binge-watched your videos when you were struggling with one too. Seeing how active + happy you are now gives me hope that I’ll be able to come back even stronger just like you did. Thank you for being you & sharing your journey. ❤️
wow omg SAMEEE hahaha
How bad of an injury?
YES!! loveeeeee these!!!!! I love how you’re not obsessive with food, you just enjoy it along with the rest of your life.
i truly love this content! i’ve had a terrible year obsessing about weight loss and fitness and it has led me down a wayward path trying to recover. i am super thankful for your videos on nutrition, training, and uncovering the science behind fat loss and muscle gain. it’s helped me improve my mindset on what fitness and health are and instead, i’ve been working towards enjoying my training and how it makes me feel. im nowhere as recovered as i’d like to be but i’m excited for what’s to come. i cannot thank you enough natacha- peace and love ✨💕! ☺️
Hi Natacha!! I just wanted to say you completely changed my perspective and mentality on food and exercise over these past few years. I used to have such a strict diet and workout schedule and I always felt so tired and worn out because of it. You made me realize the importance of fun workouts and enjoying meals and living life without focusing on stressors like caloric intake and body size. I just really appreciate all that you do in the fitness community because it’s nothing but uplifting :) thank you!
Natacha, I love seeing your food - it always looks so GOOD. I was wondering about how you plan your meals, or like shop for them? How often do you go to the supermarket and how do you know what you are going to be in the mood for that week?
I’d love to know this too!
U save my eating habit natacha! I was restricting my calories and at the end of the day i binge and felt guilty, i just found out that i need more calories to even be focus on my work and not felt lethargy at all! I am eating close to 1800 and i am still losing fat, i felt better, i felt happy and not hungry at all!! U r the only person i trust when it comes to fitness and health! Keep it up natacha! Love u!
I love these type of videos! If i’m not feeling really happy or nice in relation with food, i like to watch your videos that definitely help me to feel better and listen to what I want and also to listen to my cravings, which is something that is totally fine. Thank you 💓
you make me feel like I can finally take care of my body the right way once and for all. i struggled for years natacha and your videos and everything you post online has me feeling like I finally understand and I can do this. I love you 💘 thank you 💘
Sophia! 🤍 you really have no idea how much this comment means to me. I am beyond happy for you and so so full of belief that you can and will do this! you deserve it and you have so much to bring the world! I love you back
your energy is infectious, your smile is contagious and I admire the strength with which you carry yourself :)
Over the last few videos I’ve noticed how you’ve incorporated some elements of the training you did with the Olympians you worked with into your own routines (tempo rows, the banded lateral walk, the assault bike…)- you’re not afraid to mix it up! That’s so admirable and inspiring 🤌
You inspire me everyday to fuel my body properly and I feel so calm and happy watching your videos. Always come back to them when I’m stressed💛💛
These what I eat in a week videos are probably my favorites! Feels like we just get the pleasure of hanging with you and Mario for a bit😊
Thank you for being a channel that just reinforces time and again what true HEALTH looks like!
Lots of love💗💗
soooo happy that you are a lululemon ambassador!!! I have been watching your videos for about a year now and LOVE you!!! I am so inspired by your mindset, work ethic, knowledge and athleticism💪🏻 I am the store manager at lululemon in Oslo, Norway, and couldn’t believe it when I saw the news! So proud to have you on our team😍😍😍🥳🥳❤️💪🏻
natachaaa, I missed your videos. I’ve been studying the whole time so I didn’t have the time to watch them. You spread so much positivity and love. that’s why I just love watching your videos. sending u much much love
I love to see you enjoying your workouts! It always inspires me to be more active, and have fun with my workouts!
i strive to have the same positive mentality towards food as you do !!! i'm getting there i think and i believe its all about being consistent with my training and listening to my body. some days are harder than others and i fumble a little (over or under eat then i feel horrible and beat myself up over it, force workouts when i have zero energy) but i'm learning to be patient and have discipline !!! the hardest part for me is the mental aspect of it but your mental resilience is so inspiring and i keep thinking that if you can do it then so can i!! ure my biggest inspiration 💐
Natacha, I just found your videos like three weeks ago and I've been binging them harrrrd. Your approach is so needed and so refreshing after digesting years of fitfluencer garbage. Plus, you and Mario are genuinely hilarious. Never hit the subscribe button so fast in my life.
I can’t help but stupidly grin the whole way through your videos. Thank you and Mario for the content you make and the bright light you bring to this space. Congrats on your ambassador role!!
Natacha, these vlogs are everything. They radiate so much joy and lightness but I see how much real work you put in every day to keep yourself happy and healthy. I know you only show glimpses into your life and I'm very much aware that what we see on social media (and especially here on CZcams) isn't the full picture, but I really admire your work ethic and your level of commitment to your craft. You're living proof that a person can work hard and not be too hard on themself. You inspire me to live a life as free and as true to one's self as yours. Keep doing what you do!
Natacha I am very thankful to you for showing me that I can still eat "alot" and maintain/lose weight you've really taught me alot about nutrition and healthy eating habits and also whenever I see you exercising it just motivates me to exercise too! You look so happy doing it as if it was easy and really overall you're just a super funny, hardworking and kind person that I aspire to be like❤
Natacha, I have to thank you, your videos have completely inspired me to find enjoyment in fitness and healthy living again. I'm not focused on how I look anymore but focus on how I'm feeling attacking my workouts and my overall wellbeing. It really has changed everything moving forward - thank you for sharing your journey with us!!
yes yes yes I am so happy for you, you can't imagine!! go for it! you deserve to feel good and strong, and to have energy to take on all the things you can! I'm rooting for you, I know you can so surprise yourself with all the things you can do ❤🔥
You’re my favourite. Your videos make me smile and bring so much comfort when I’m going through tough times. So thank you ❤️❤️
You together make me sooo happy. it makes my day, also your mentality, hobbies and time to make meals and eat on the table is soo good!! love all of you guys!
Thanks for making me realise how much a highly active person really should be eating. Old habits die hard and I'm so sure watching this that I'm still under-fuelling despite being miles out of the gate from a former ED
Totally agree. I have worked hard to get back to intuitive eating and connection to self trust. I really do know what's best for my body
So the same. I am just afraid that my body has gone used to dealing with less and that eating what I actually need will be put into storage right away.
I live for you “week of eating” it’s like a mini series of the best actual reality series. 💛💛
Genuinely, there is nothing that motivates me more in the healthiest of ways than you're videos! I swear they are a god send I cannot explain it please never stop making them
Been watching Natasha for a good few years and her videos and channel is such a positive space on CZcams thank you for that 🫶🏻🫶🏻
I'm in the middle of a program that has me tracking calories and macros. Started with a deficit to cut and now reverse dieting back up. My trainer and I have been talking a lot about making sure I'm still living my life and maintaining balance in my diet with nothing being off-limits. I've learned I can be quite obsessive when it comes to my diet and discovered your videos just a couple days ago. They've been immensely helpful as I work to recalibrate my brain away from its obsessive nature. Thank you for doing these!
With you on the obsessive nature. OMG. Best of luck.
@@jenniferkaplanski5810 Thank you! You too! I've gotten better, mostly. I still have bad days, for sure, but always working on it!
you two are freaking hilarious sometimes I forget I am watching for fitness inspiration
hahah not everyone gets our sense of humour but I'm really happy you understand us 😂
as someone struggling with anorexia, I wish you made videos every day to help keep me going. You are truly inspiring and so real. I appreciate the happiness you and Mario bring me ☺️💖
The world is soooo grateful to have you Natacha !!! Thank you for everything you share ! The positive attitude you have towards fitness, food, challenges, & life in general is so inspiring. + I didn't know i needed SO MUCH someone in the fitness influencer game to talk so freely about eating AT LEAST 2000kcal/day to be sure not to crash later in the week, seeing food as fuel but as fun and pleasure as well. From the bottom of my heart : THANK YOU.
Yayyy we've been blessed with another Natacha video! I've been so uninspired food-wise lately and I can't wait to get some fun ideas from you, so many of your previous shown recipes and meals have become staples in my life😂 Always delish and easy😍 And of course, it's impossible to be in a bad mood after seeing one of your videos, you (and Mario as well) always radiate joy and it is SO contagious!💛
Your presence makes our lives better ♥️
You both are hilarious 😂
Thanks for the love, laughter, inspiration and strength
Lots of love Natacha & Mario 🥰🥰
Ur aura and energy that u give off inspires me so much to keep on intuitive eating and growing a stronger relationship with food
Girl you keep on being one of the most inspiring people out there who actually provides quality content that genuinely helps others!
Honestly that last sentence was so true and hit me so hard - 'Living life fully and having energy to do so'. This was the most important message of the whole video and I want to thank you for this! ❤❤❤
Such good content to show people you can be a normal human, eat normal food and still look/be fit!! The realness of this channel is what makes it the best CZcams channel. I will never be able to thank Natacha enough for all the knowledge she shares here ❤️
Also, congratulations on being the new ambassador for Lululemon!! Two of my favorite things in this life together 😍
Yasssss!!! My favorite Natacha videos!!! You have blessed us once again. I swear i be missing you girl💁🏽♀️💁🏼♀️. Hehe. Really excited to try some of these meals out. Been feeling very uninspired and in a bit of a rutt if I’m honest so the timing of this video couldn’t be better. Injuries and finding a balance has been difficult, I’m pretty sure you can relate. But I’m not giving up 💪🏾. Love you Natacha and thank you as always for being you. And hello Mario! We’ve missed you as well! Have a great week you guys💛💛
hey Aleah, I totally know what you mean about feeling in a rut where nothing feels inspiring ): I hope you find some of these meals exciting, sometimes a little twist or something new can help a little (: I'm sorry to hear about your injury, it really sucks and really feels like it controls your physical and mental wellbeing but I'm so glad you're not giving up!! I wish you a speedy recovery and sending you so much love!! And Mario sends his love too!! Big hugs!! ❤❤❤
@@natachaoceane thank you so much💛💛
I LOVVVVE your What I Eat in a Week videos!! The recipes all look amazing, plus I love how you turn it into a vlog also :)
Keep doing you, Natacha! I will always be so glad that I found your channel a few years ago!
As someone who has been struggling with eating disorders for a few years now, these videos are so helpful.
I’m having a high anxiety day today, and I almost skipped this video for fear of it increasing that anxiety. Alas, I did not, and I am so so glad I didn’t! Truly this video uplifted my spirits and lessened some of my anxiety.
You’ve taught me that having a scientific approach to eating can actually be listening to cravings and hunger cues, and that our bodies are quite smart in figuring out what we need. Thank you!
Yayyyy - a Wednesday evening delight! Thanks for posting Natacha. Can’t wait to watch. Big love xxx
hey Debbie Louise!! I hope you enjoy it and that you're having a lovely week so far - what a summer we've had!! All my love always!! xxxx
Definitely enjoying it - food looks delicious, as usual! Just reached the part where you’re talking about being the new lululemon ambassador!!! I mean.......???!!! Natacha?! This is THEEE PERFECT collab! Both absolute 💯 quality! What a dream for you, for them, for us?! Ahhh 😃😃😃😃
And yes, the summer has been absolutely gorgeous, loving this weather as I’m sure you are too!
Lots of love 💕 xxxxx
I really enjoy your "what i eat" videos. The food looks amazing and it's always nice to see someone who is very in touch with her body needs and wants.
All of these meals were clearly made with so much love! I feel like I am back in London when I see you and Mario at the Pret grabbing a sandwich. The scenery is really lovely in every video you make. You and Mario make the best team! Tellement magnifique, merci!
Hi Natacha!! It's always so fun to see the recipes youre loving these days. Hope you're happy and well❤️
Your videos are an eye candy ❤️🔥 As always, there are no words how amazing you and Mario are 🔥 Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. It is very much appreciated 🎉 You have an immaculate taste in literally everything: food, style, your values and ethics 🔥❤️
this was a wonderful video and thank you for brightening up my day, u truly are an inspiration to me 💗💗
I just recently found your channel and have been watching videos a lot as I am on a health journey. Im a 30 year old woman 5ft 3inches tall and weight of 164lbs. Its the heaviest Ive ever been and Im been so ashamed of my body lately. I feel so much more empowered by watching your content to have a slow sustainable weight loss. You are wonderful ❤ thank you!
You guys are the best! Always happy to see you guys showing a week of food and workouts. It reminds me to be present and to keep as you say, “the eye on the prize”. At the end of the day it’s a journey not a race to our over all health, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Cheers
honestly still on the pre video ad and already liked it 😘 also 30 whole minutessss? stop it too good I can't wait for all the laughs and knowledge
you're too good to me Daniella!! the non-skippable ads are killing me lately!! But at least you got 30mins waiting 😘😘😘
you helped me discover intuitive eating and recover from my eating disorder. I can't thank you enough!
hey!!! I am so proud of you, you have so much to give and to bring the world and I'm so happy you're sounding like you're at your best. I'm always cheering for you Willa ❤🔥🐥
Great video Natacha! I think your approach to food and caloric intake is spot on and will help so many people who watch this! Thanks for all the yummy recipe ideas.
I appreciate these videos. I liked how you tracked and showed what you ate over a week and how it varies. I love how you train (currently doing your cut program) and your meals you create, thanks for the ideas 😍🙏💕
I made ure salmon-grapefruit-bagel for lunch today (for the first time) and it was the most delicious thing! So I'm exited for some new inspiration. Recepy wise and in all kind of ways you inspire me to eat properly🌈 Lots of love from germany 🙋♀️
Oh and I think Mario is the best sidekick out of every youtube channel I've ever seen😊
hey Annika!! It really works together right?! I'm so glad you got to try it and that these videos make you feel inspired to fuel yourself properly (: all my love always!! xxx
@@natachaoceane Yes it was so delicius I think I will have it again tomorrow 😊
I've had that too bc of Natasha and omgggg..Soooo good!
Congrats Natacha on your partnership with Lululemon! I love the foods you eat and the message you spread! Can't wait to see more :)
Just love your videos so much! So much thought and artistry go into them and you can really tell. I mostly just put videos as background noise, but I can't with yours or I'll miss everything! Love them and I hope they never stop coming! Thank you for sharing with us
WE LOVE TO SEE IT!!!! all time favorite blogs - two of the best humans on the planet 🙌🏽💙🦋
the best fitness influencer in the world ✨ my dream is that natacha opens a balanced food restaurant and serves these foods to us
that's an amazing idea Becca, my only experience of restaurants has been as a waitress but definitely an idea I'd be interested in!! All my love!! xxx
Oh my gosh I would LOVE that!
A 30 minute Natacha Oceane video? A literal gift 😍🤧
Thank you for being so honest and real, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it!
This video made me so happy! The food looks absolutely mouthwatering and your positive energy is just what I needed right now! Thanks you for this as always Natacha! 💛
I just want you to know that you single handedly cured my eating disorder. You’re so strong and beautiful, and you eat such amazing food while enjoying life. That’s what’s important. I stopped living, and I didn’t notice until you showed me what life is supposed to be about - fun!! Your training & fun meals inspire me so much, so thank you💗
Okay, this video was really helpful to me! I recently tracked my calories for a few weeks and to be honest it made me a little insecure because the numbers seemed very high for a smallish woman like me. I'm a climber and I usually do 3 pretty intense bouldering sessions per week, plus daily cycling (about 30 minutes - 2 hours total per day). In my mind those activities are nowhere near on the same level as the kinds of workouts you do, but in reality, I guess they're not too far off either. So just seeing the caloric intake you need to fuel that kind of exercise puts things in perspective and makes me feel a lot better about it 🙈 Thanks! ☺️
It's actually a really good thing to be maintaining your bodyweight on a higher caloric amount! It means your metabolism is upregulated 😊 definitely nothing to be ashamed of!
Hello Natacha and Mario, the way *you guys get along make me giggle, and the positive vibes from this video uplifts me a bit.* 💖
I'm struggling with body identification/weight gain and I can't seem to lose weight and I don't want to battle with food and exercise and drag myself through everything. I've gained a lot of weight in the past two and a half years.
I would like to alleviate the suffering and attachment I have to my weight, and like some of the content you have that makes me feel a bit less guilt.
went on youtube thinking 'I could really watch a vid from natacha right now' and boom here you are 🥰 thanks for all you do! it's really needed and appreciated ♥️
Omg a 30 min Natacha video?! This is exactly what my day needed 😍🎉
You’re the greatest, I hope you love hanging out with us!
I laughed out loud when you were eating a donut 'in the wild' HAHAHA! You're amazing and thank you for reminding us life is to be lived and enjoyed, the purpose of eating is for energy, health and fun!
Video after video… these two are truly the perfect people! Inside out! Imagine the world if more were like them - beautiful and smart and healthy and funny and productive…
The end really got me. I've been struggling with energy levels due to psychological stuff and have been bedridden without an explananation to what's happening. I got my diagnosis and meds a year ago now and I started playing badminton as well. It's crazy how much my life has changed. I've been seeing a nutritionist as well and have found out that I gained weight while I was eating faar too little food! Since taking care of my mental health, nutrition and physical activity I've been able to live life much much more. I wouldn't say it's "perfect" yet but it really touched me when you said that you work towards being able to live life to the fullest because that's my mission as well! I've been watching your videos more the past weeks and I just love your openness and honesty, it is so motivating, real and relatable! This video has brought a big smile to my face and a little happy/sad tear at the end
You know, I’ve gained weight eating too little as well. I’ve found that I don’t want to eat that much but that I’m doing that it does not serve me. I’ve also found that not wanting to eat is a form of starving for me, and I am starved for live somewhere in the back of my mind and in my childhood. Searching through the enneagram workbook has gotten me to journal about what’s been weighing me down and holding me back and to find healing. Just thought I’d share since I have depression as well and have been frozen in place for periods of time and gained weight eating too little.
a bowl of oatmeal and a new natacha video, a beautiful combo :)) i also do wonder, when your goal is to maintain, what sort of thinking/planning do you do for your training? i'm so used to doing so with a goal in mind be it gaining muscle or losing weight etc that i don't think i even know how i would go about such a thing, if that makes sense ^^
hey beautiful!! haha I actually know what you mean! When I'm maintaining I find a routine that fits my schedule, it can be the same split as a muscle building or fat loss programme but it doesn't have to be. Exercise-wise I focus on my big muscle groups and foundational exercises like lunges, pull-ups, squats, press-ups etc and push myself always, trying to go as heavy as possible throughout and then working in some of the new skills I want to work on. Sometimes I'll get stronger and notice myself having better endurance or strength but the biggest sign that I might not be eating enough would be losses in strength/cardiovascular fitness. Maintaining means i truly can listen to my hunger cues for each day rather than focussing on increasing my calories a little (for muscle-building) or lowering them a little (for losing fat). Hope that helps!! All my love xxx
@@natachaoceane this helps so much! thank you for the response and the help
I’ve been binging your videos! You’re definitely one of my favorites! Coach Greg, thank you!
Ive had too completely overhaul the way I approach food + exercise. My whole childhood, I was obsessed with wanting to be tiny. I know it came from family - brown, immigrant families have no filter or awareness of the impact of their comments. Now I try really hard to workout because its medicine for my depression and good food balances out my mood. I try to remember its not about pushing myself to oblivion every time I get on the mat. I live my the notion of consistent mediocrity now, just a consistent 60% effort for my brain.
I love seeing your videos because I didn't have good examples of nourishment growing up. As for exercise I began posting my workouts on my channel, so I'd have a visual to SEE with my own eyes, that I'm getting stronger, and better at yoga/pilates and exercise isnt just about trying to be small.
Ok but I can confirm these Greek yogurt flatbreads are SO good! I found them on Felu - fit by cooking’s channel, and I make pizzas out of them. Usually takeout pizza is too hard on my gut, and these are great for gut health! Low calorie too! Love you Natacha x I’m a long time viewer for years now. You’ve changed my life with your content ❤️
