Hey there, sunshine.
00:00:01.542 --> 00:00:08.807
Jared and I know that you are busy and often on the go, and when you are, what do you eat?
00:00:08.807 --> 00:00:14.131
Today, we're sharing with you one big tip of how you can make travel successful.
00:00:14.131 --> 00:00:16.768
Stick with Whole Food, plant Base and still enjoy it.
00:00:16.768 --> 00:00:20.730
Hey sister, welcome to the Power On Plants podcast.
00:00:20.730 --> 00:00:26.091
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?
00:00:26.091 --> 00:00:31.481
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?
00:00:31.481 --> 00:00:37.753
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
00:00:38.201 --> 00:00:45.429
Hi, we're Jared and Anita Riesel, christ followers, health care professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.
00:00:45.429 --> 00:00:57.649
We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers to traditional routes.
00:00:57.649 --> 00:01:04.871
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant base living.
00:01:04.871 --> 00:01:08.650
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods and it's not hard.
00:01:08.650 --> 00:01:10.242
You just need the way.
00:01:10.242 --> 00:01:16.004
That's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived If you're ready to enjoy your meals.
00:01:16.004 --> 00:01:22.069
No longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place.
00:01:22.069 --> 00:01:27.349
So grab your favorite plant based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:34.171
Hey friend, like Jared and I said in the intro, we get how busy life can be.
00:01:34.171 --> 00:01:41.567
You're often on the go, running here or there to maybe appointments or somewhere with your children or to meet up with friends and family.
00:01:41.567 --> 00:01:45.489
There's always something on the, there's always something happening.
00:01:45.489 --> 00:01:50.240
Maybe you're traveling and you're taking a trip, or maybe you're just traveling around town.
00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:52.347
This can apply to both.
00:01:52.347 --> 00:01:59.566
When you're out and about and you need something healthy to eat, you're feeling snacky, you're peckish and you're wondering what in the world can I eat?
00:01:59.566 --> 00:02:01.010
A left home without anything?
00:02:01.010 --> 00:02:02.724
First of all, don't do that.
00:02:02.724 --> 00:02:07.951
Set yourself up for success by taking a purse snack with you or a big bag of snacks.
00:02:07.951 --> 00:02:12.701
We'll do that sometimes, but maybe you just didn't have time today, so you've hit the road.
00:02:12.701 --> 00:02:15.650
You don't have your favorite drink in your cup of happy, like you should.
00:02:15.650 --> 00:02:21.522
You didn't grab a snack before you went out the door, or maybe you didn't know you were going to be gone this long.
00:02:21.522 --> 00:02:25.551
And you're out and you're thinking man, my blood sugar feels low it happens.
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:26.763
I do not feel good.
00:02:26.763 --> 00:02:28.044
This is reality.
00:02:28.044 --> 00:02:29.163
What am I going to do?
00:02:29.163 --> 00:02:31.705
And there's that fast food calling your name.
00:02:31.705 --> 00:02:35.383
That fast food drive through and it's saying come on over here.
00:02:35.804 --> 00:02:36.145
It's so easy.
00:02:36.145 --> 00:02:37.008
You used to like me.
00:02:37.008 --> 00:02:38.110
Yeah, you used to like me.
00:02:38.110 --> 00:02:39.254
We used to be best friends.
00:02:40.016 --> 00:02:45.531
It's so easy, it's so quick and it's going to make you feel terrible and then you're going to regret it.
00:02:45.531 --> 00:02:47.366
I would not call it food hangover.
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:48.741
I mean people ask us.
00:02:48.762 --> 00:02:55.146
They think we're talking about alcohol but really it's a food hangover, all these addictive foods that are terrible for you.
00:02:55.146 --> 00:03:00.210
They inflame you the minute you start eating them and you think it tastes great and we've talked about this before.
00:03:00.210 --> 00:03:01.224
We call them good.
00:03:01.224 --> 00:03:02.790
That was so good.
00:03:02.790 --> 00:03:03.300
You eat it.
00:03:03.300 --> 00:03:07.084
It tasted good to you, so you say it was good.
00:03:07.084 --> 00:03:10.312
But we've got to reframe what we're saying is good, that is not good.
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:20.168
And I would say, even if you think it tastes good, because now those foods to us don't taste good but, even if in that moment you think, oh, I remember this.
00:03:20.168 --> 00:03:21.330
You're going to regret it.
00:03:21.330 --> 00:03:23.054
Don't do it.
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:29.385
That's why we're sharing this tip with you today, because you're thinking what do I do when I'm in that situation?
00:03:29.385 --> 00:03:34.631
Then I mean, if I'm not supposed to wheel into the drive through because it's quick and easy, what can I do?
00:03:34.631 --> 00:03:39.449
Well, we're going to share with you one thing that's just as quick and easy to do today.
00:03:39.449 --> 00:03:42.384
Try to whip in your car into the drive through.
00:03:42.384 --> 00:03:44.510
Whip your car into the grocery store.
00:03:44.510 --> 00:03:47.888
It doesn't take you any longer than waiting in that line.
00:03:47.888 --> 00:03:48.569
It doesn't.
00:03:49.120 --> 00:04:04.879
If you have an idea of some of the things we're going to share with you today, of what you can grab, and then, as you do your regular shopping, start intentionally looking for those snacks that you can take on the go, that you can stop easily grabbing it in your car, because you're gonna think of other things that we're not even gonna mention today.
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:11.325
There are so many options here, but pull in and do things like what we've done in the past.
00:04:11.325 --> 00:04:18.336
We go straight to the hummus section and we will look for a hummus that is low oil or, better yet, no oil, oil-free hummus.
00:04:18.336 --> 00:04:20.103
There are several brands out there.
00:04:20.435 --> 00:04:24.223
And we did this just a couple days ago actually, we did this is very tip.
00:04:24.625 --> 00:04:25.927
We're sharing with you the real stuff.
00:04:25.927 --> 00:04:26.899
This is what we do.
00:04:26.899 --> 00:04:28.720
This is what we share here.
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:35.399
We get more in depth into our course and into our masterminds and communities, because we can.
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:38.502
We have time to do that, but we've gotta get you started here.
00:04:38.502 --> 00:04:40.422
You've got to start getting results.
00:04:40.422 --> 00:04:41.817
We don't want you to wait.
00:04:41.817 --> 00:04:43.062
Start today.
00:04:43.814 --> 00:04:47.060
So you wheel in, you walk in and you look for the oil-free hummus.
00:04:47.060 --> 00:04:48.540
Maybe you don't know which brands are needed.
00:04:48.540 --> 00:04:49.242
I don't know which brands.
00:04:49.242 --> 00:04:49.944
I don't know what to look for.
00:04:49.944 --> 00:04:55.197
I don't have time for looking at everyone While you're there just doing your regular shopping during the week.
00:04:55.197 --> 00:04:56.642
The next time, start looking.
00:04:56.642 --> 00:05:03.000
Start turning them over and looking for what your store carries that has the least oil, the least salt, the least sugar.
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.300
But I would say look for no oil, because it is inflammatory.
00:05:06.300 --> 00:05:08.483
It caused so many problems for me in my past.
00:05:08.483 --> 00:05:12.942
We've seen it cause many problems for clients as well, and we want to save you from that.
00:05:12.942 --> 00:05:14.682
So let's look for the oil-free brands.
00:05:14.995 --> 00:05:20.041
If you're not sure where to find those or which brands are oil-free, get inside Podcasts and Siders.

Experience our free group and start asking each other and sharing.
00:05:22.723 --> 00:05:28.002
Here is the oil-free hummus I use If you already have one, that's awesome.
00:05:28.002 --> 00:05:29.144
Get in there and share it.
00:05:29.144 --> 00:05:29.656
You're gonna help.
00:05:29.656 --> 00:05:36.305
So many people Ask and share these things with each other at powerandplantscom forward slash P-I-E.
00:05:36.305 --> 00:05:38.942
That's powerandplantscom forward slash pi.
00:05:38.942 --> 00:05:40.660
It's our free group.
00:05:40.660 --> 00:05:42.360
It's a wealth of information.
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:45.684
It's a great place to share these products that you're eating.
00:05:46.154 --> 00:05:54.519
Maybe you can say well, I already have a hummus, but I need to know what's everybody else swinging in and getting from the grocery store instead of sitting in that line waiting for the fast food.
00:05:54.519 --> 00:06:01.360
That's gonna make them feel terrible, hang on to weight, increase inflammation, be hurting the rest of the trip.
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:02.800
We don't want that for you.
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:03.858
There's no reason for that.
00:06:03.858 --> 00:06:06.423
So you have to start making these choices ahead of time.
00:06:06.423 --> 00:06:20.442
This is what I'm gonna do if I get hungry, I'm gonna find a store, because even if you're on a long road trip, a lot of exits that are gonna have the drive-thrus will have some kind of local store there that you can just swing into and get food.
00:06:20.442 --> 00:06:26.324
And thankfully, these foods are much more readily available today than at any other time in history.
00:06:26.324 --> 00:06:27.718
I'm talking about hummus.
00:06:27.718 --> 00:06:35.701
Look, fruits and vegetables have been around since the beginning of time Genesis 129, right, they've been around for us to fuel our bodies.
00:06:35.701 --> 00:06:38.742
Well, so go and pick up vegetables.
00:06:38.742 --> 00:06:44.281
Get beautiful, pre-washed, pre-chopped veggies Broccoli's, one, that's readily available.
00:06:44.735 --> 00:06:47.600
Carrots baby carrots With hummus is amazing.
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:48.598
Broccoli with hummus we love it.
00:06:49.134 --> 00:06:56.423
You know a lot of people eat the carrots or the pre-chopped things like the bell peppers, but we really love broccoli and hummus.
00:06:56.574 --> 00:06:57.418
You could do celery sticks.
00:06:57.418 --> 00:07:01.641
You could I mean sometimes you can find those party platters with the pre-chopped veggies.
00:07:01.875 --> 00:07:03.120
You could just buy a party platter.
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:10.982
It depends on how many people are in your party, what you wanna buy, but we've bought, just with the six of us, bags of different veggies.
00:07:10.982 --> 00:07:18.863
It's still gonna be cheaper, and if it costs you a few more dollars now, I want you to start thinking in terms of long-term cost.
00:07:18.863 --> 00:07:20.086
Think about it.
00:07:20.086 --> 00:07:22.583
What's it gonna cost you in your opportunities?
00:07:22.583 --> 00:07:27.180
Do you want to be around for your children and grandchildren long-term?
00:07:27.180 --> 00:07:36.483
Do you want to not just be there present, but you wanna actually fully live and experience those days and those important milestones with them?
00:07:36.483 --> 00:07:41.862
To plant the seeds that you were put there to plant inside those precious little babies.
00:07:41.862 --> 00:07:43.699
They don't stay babies long.
00:07:43.699 --> 00:07:45.562
They grow up so fast they do not.
00:07:45.935 --> 00:07:47.380
Plant the seeds now.
00:07:47.380 --> 00:07:54.624
And in planting the seeds, if you're a mom and you're breastfeeding your baby, that includes what you're putting into your body now.
00:07:54.624 --> 00:07:58.043
It doesn't mean be stressed about it or worry about it.
00:07:58.043 --> 00:08:01.761
Get a lot of color, get a lot of whole foods.
00:08:01.761 --> 00:08:03.923
Find your new favorites.
00:08:03.923 --> 00:08:05.259
That is the big key.
00:08:05.259 --> 00:08:12.841
But when you're at that place and you're outrunning errands and you've got things to do, get those nutrients into your body.
00:08:12.841 --> 00:08:14.841
Get color, think color.
00:08:14.841 --> 00:08:24.860
Broccoli, bright green, beautiful carrots, orange, gorgeous rainbow carrots, red, yellow, purple all different colors.
00:08:24.860 --> 00:08:26.360
There's so many options there.
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:28.843
Don't just eat one color or colorless.
00:08:28.843 --> 00:08:30.699
Eat them all.
00:08:30.699 --> 00:08:33.842
And this is so simple and it's so quick to do.
00:08:33.842 --> 00:08:37.471
Get these pre-chop, pre-prepared veggies, fruits.
00:08:37.471 --> 00:08:42.426
Grab bananas, grab oranges, grab apples.
00:08:42.426 --> 00:08:44.942
They're very easy to get.
00:08:45.575 --> 00:08:52.883
Maybe you left home and you had some leftover hummus, brownie batter, hummus from the Power and Plains Cookbook and you put a little bit in a container in your purse.
00:08:52.883 --> 00:08:57.000
All you need to do is grab a banana to dip in that or an apple to dip in that.
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:00.735
It's so delicious, it's absolutely delicious, anita.
00:09:00.735 --> 00:09:03.100
I'm not gonna have a knife or anything to slice up my apple.
00:09:03.100 --> 00:09:08.701
Well, take a bite of it and then take a bite of your brownie batter hummus with a spoon you're always gonna keep in your car.
00:09:08.701 --> 00:09:13.061
You know why you're gonna always keep spoons in your car For you and your family members?
00:09:13.061 --> 00:09:20.702
Because you can use it to eat a bite of your brownie batter hummus and then take a bite of your apple, because you can use it to eat yogurt.
00:09:20.702 --> 00:09:26.120
Buy whole food, plant-based vegan yogurt, but again, turn that over.
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:27.600
Is it filled with sugar?
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.082
Is it filled with colorings and all those things?
00:09:30.082 --> 00:09:30.956
Get one.
00:09:30.956 --> 00:09:35.642
That's very simple, the simplest one you can buy, and keep that spoon in your car.
00:09:35.995 --> 00:09:45.998
You can buy small containers of plastic utensils where they have the forks, spoons, knives in them, and you just keep it in the glove compartment it's always there and then you can wash them.
00:09:45.998 --> 00:09:48.879
Or if you need to toss it, toss it, just get some more.
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:50.741
But it's a great thing to have on hand.
00:09:51.394 --> 00:09:55.380
And I wanna share one more thing that you might not have thought about, and it's heart of palm.
00:09:55.380 --> 00:09:57.162
We love just eating these playing.
00:09:57.162 --> 00:09:58.139
The kids love them.
00:09:58.139 --> 00:09:59.538
They're wonderful.
00:09:59.538 --> 00:10:00.918
They come canned.
00:10:00.918 --> 00:10:05.662
You can open up the can, drain off the liquid and just hold them in your fingers and eat them.
00:10:05.662 --> 00:10:07.320
It's a great snack.
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:12.504
It doesn't take two seconds to run into a store, grab some heart of palm leave and eat it.
00:10:12.504 --> 00:10:14.160
Now some are in a glass jar.
00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:15.458
You can open it up.
00:10:15.538 --> 00:10:20.258
In the event that they're not, you could keep a can opener in your car, a travel one.
00:10:20.258 --> 00:10:23.224
I mean, that's another thing you could keep in your car so that you have that.
00:10:23.224 --> 00:10:27.301
So if all they have is canned, you can buy the canned and you've got it right there.
00:10:27.301 --> 00:10:29.061
I mean, these are super easy.
00:10:29.061 --> 00:10:32.379
How long would it take you to get spoons and a can opener into your car?
00:10:32.379 --> 00:10:37.460
Not long at all, but it's gonna set you up for success having these things ahead of time.
00:10:37.460 --> 00:10:41.600
How long would it take you to write out a list of your favorite snacks that you're gonna keep?
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:45.860
Adding to that you can just whip into the store and grab when you're on the road.
00:10:45.860 --> 00:10:54.219
You could keep that in your glove compartment, so you don't even have to think about what do I usually get, what brand is it, where do I buy it.
00:10:54.219 --> 00:10:57.725
You just keep those things and set yourself up for success.
00:10:58.054 --> 00:11:00.022
Because it's hard to have ideas when you're hungry too.
00:11:00.162 --> 00:11:00.363
It is.
00:11:01.054 --> 00:11:07.518
I mean, if you're traveling or if you're in your home city and you're just on the go, you're busy and you're in the middle of all that and you think, oh, what do I need?
00:11:07.518 --> 00:11:12.541
You may not think of it, I mean, you just may have trouble recalling it because of all the things that are going on.
00:11:12.541 --> 00:11:23.164
So if you pull out your list, like, oh yeah, over here at Publix or over here at Whole Foods or over here at Kroger, I've got this thing that I normally eat, that we love, yeah because you wanna get it and be gone.
00:11:23.455 --> 00:11:26.581
When the hunger hits, all you're thinking about is feeding you belly.
00:11:26.581 --> 00:11:35.221
You wanna eat, you're hungry, and it's so much easier to pull your car right into the parking lot of a grocery store, run in, grab what you need and you're done.
00:11:35.221 --> 00:11:37.621
And, honestly, it can be quicker too.
00:11:37.621 --> 00:11:54.658
You're going to feel better in the long run, still have a snack that you enjoy and you're not gonna feel guilty or worry about it or be counting calories or keeping up with points All those ridiculous things that just don't have to be and you're setting yourself up for the future that you want.
00:11:54.658 --> 00:12:07.722
Do everything you do with the present in mind that you want, but also the future that you want, because there are great days ahead for you, sunshine, and we are so here for it.
00:12:07.722 --> 00:12:13.461
We love having you as a member of the Power On Plants family and here with us on the podcast.
00:12:13.461 --> 00:12:24.479
If you're getting great value week after week after week, it would mean the world, to me and Jared, to see your message that you leave in Apple Podcast as a review.
00:12:24.479 --> 00:12:26.702
All you have to do is leave one or two sentences.
00:12:26.702 --> 00:12:32.543
It literally will take you about one minute to do this, but it would make all the difference to us.
00:12:32.735 --> 00:12:37.761
We can't wait to hear from you and hear how Power On Plants is changing your life.
00:12:37.761 --> 00:12:39.360
We love getting your letters.
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:43.321
We read every single one, and you might even hear back from us too.
00:12:43.321 --> 00:12:44.557
There's a very good chance.
00:12:44.557 --> 00:12:45.701
We do that quite often.
00:12:45.701 --> 00:12:48.460
We love you, we are praying for you.
00:12:48.460 --> 00:12:50.419
You are a treasure.
00:12:50.419 --> 00:12:55.062
God has great plans for your life and we are so happy to be a part of them.
00:12:55.062 --> 00:12:57.864
Have a great week, sen, sean, and we'll see you soon.
00:12:57.864 --> 00:13:29.227
Music you.
