I realised I forgot to write them! The spices are 2 tsps ground cumin, 2 tsp ground coriander, 2 tsp cinnamon, 2 tsp ground tumeric and I added a touch of chilli powder. For the dumpling mixture you just drop around a tablespoon of the mixture into the simmering soup and they will puff up and cook in around 5 minutes. x
@@lucylismore Why didn't you add it to the description after realizing this? Adding what you wrote here to the pinned comment also works. There are probably 70 comments here with people asking for the spices and parts of the recipe that are missing, and more (like me) will show up over the years, just fyi. Your answer here that I am replying to is extremely buried. That being said, I'm really looking forwards to trying out this recipe. Thanks!
Thank you for your comments! I didn't realise the comment wasn't pinned but have just done it after seeing your comment! Thank you so so much, I really hope you enjoy the recipe! xx
My elder mom was obese most of her adult life. She spent thousands on diets, and Weight Watchers. I was stuck w/ her during Covid, I eat healthy (long-time healthy vegan) and did the cooking, she went from 2-3x to size16 and has maintained it. We learned much of her health issues were solved by not eating dairy. She has muscles for the first time, she can kayak, and she had a healthy colonoscopy. Learning to eat healthy as a lifestyle is the best investment in our health. It is wonderful you were able to make this change at a young age. My siblings have diseases from their lifestyle choices. Great video.
That idea of having a fruit tea after dinner, giving you time to properly about whether you actually want a pudding, is a stroke of genius! I always crave something sweet after dinner. It's too late for me to try this tonight 😋 but I'll definitely give it a go tomorrow! x
I had tea last night... definitely helps... especially now that it's cooler... tea gives me a warm happy feeling after dinner and I think that's what we looking for. Now to actually make it a habit;)
For years and years I’ve watched fitness videos and never actually come away feeling that motivated or that I could relate to the influencers at all. This is the best most realistic weight loss video I’ve ever watched. So so clear in what you are saying and I just feel brilliant and that I can do this after watching so.. thank you ☺️💗
❤️❤️❤️ this gave me goosebumps thank you so much! I could ask for anything more and this is why I do what I do!! Thank you so so much for taking the time to write this comment, you’ve put a huge smile on my face!! Xxxxx

Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great! I have worked as a personal trainer since 2019 and now I have started my youtube channel as I want to help more and more people achieving their goals. I do mostly home workouts and all the exercises that I post are proven and their results are very pleasing. I would appreciate a lot your support by subscribing and maybe you will find something that may help you as well.
I felt the same way as did many other of you guys liking this post, so much so that I paused it at the 17:32 mark and called a friend to share that same sentiment. It pretty much knocked down the walls standing in the way by simply scrubbing all your graffiti “knowledge,” of all the expert advice, to a four word phrase a child can comprehend, “Move More, Eat Less.” Your tips offered were as simple, but brilliant!! It was positive from beginning to I’m sure the end cause it’s still paused, but I’ve been on the move!!
I found that when I set any goals or expectations and a timeframe to reach them - no matter how high or low those expectations are; or how long or short of a period of time that is, I just can't shed that excess weight. Then in time I realized it's because I get stressed and feel pressure and my body literally locks itself. When I decided I didn't care if I lose weight or not, and I knew that somewhere along the way I surely would, I just wanted to make healthier choices for my body, then I started seeing results and quick ones, mind you. Its exactly like you said in this video. Sometimes, less is more.
@@AC-iw5mv Definitely! I went to a dietician years ago to lose the weight, I was so determined and after 3 months (and I was soooo hungry, all the time!)all I could lose was barely 5 kgs. My dietician was so disappointed and absolutely sure that I was eating pizza and hamburgers in secret :) Now, I'm never hungry and lost 8 kgs in 2 months. I believe its just the way we treat our body that makes the difference. Nutrition over calories, compassion over harsh expectations.

@@misstrawberryjamit’s possible that you were trying to restrict too much for your body. I notice when I restrict too much, my body rejects that notion. 😂 When I up my intake and focus instead on what my body wants, I lose the weight. ❤
Out of dozens and dozens of RU-vid videos, i honestly love this the most! A lot of what you said, my doctor told me as well. Like smaller portions but sticking to what you like, and it doesn’t matter what exercise you do walking is perfectly fine and underrated! So not only was this very informative, but it was honest and good advice. ♥️
I'll keep coming here to get motivation and keep y'all updated😊: Start: 74.4kg, 160cm (18 January 2023) Goal: 55kg💪 Update:70kg (25th March- Stopped going to gym for about 2 months, will start soon hopefully)

This is a life process. Don’t ever feel defeated just pick up what you learned throughout trial and error and eventually you’ll have your personal plan to stay fit. 🥂🥳 You can do it just take it little by little each day. Change comes with consistency and imagining yourself being the best you. ❤️
"When you're starting out, there is no right work out for fat loss" love it! No need to procrastinate by looking for the best exercise then I suppose, just get on with it. The best common sense I've heard about starting to work out. x
I did NOT expect to get so encouraged. I have been feeling so down and frustrated about my weight. As a stay at home mom who homeschools, I couldn’t figure it out for 3 years now. But like you said “keep it simple, enjoy your life, enjoy the process”, ugh! So deep and awesome. Everything you said just resonated with my current situation. I am truly, deeply encouraged to make a change, TODAY. Thank you Lucy. 🥺🙏🏽💓
This makes me so full of happiness!! I just know you’ve got this 🫶🏻!!! Enjoy the process is the big one because the goal post will keep moving forever so enjoy every little awesome thing you do each day. That’s the stuff you’ll look back and and smile at 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your journey is so similar to mine (which just started this spring). I lost 10 kg without actually making difficult changes. One day, the famous switch flipped and I started exercising 5 times a week and making better choices about what I eat (portion sizes, more fruits and veggies, no meat). And now here I am, still loving to exercise, feeling better than ever and I'm very close to finally manage a toe push-up. I'm so much more confident and even my lipedema can't get me down anymore.
Thanks Lucy! You've been one of my biggest inspirations since the beginning and your videos have given me the much needed confidence that I could do this. ❤️

I really love this video. Thanks for showing healthy and sustainable ways of getting fit and healthy. I'm currently on my own fitness and weightloss journey and I'm down 11kg in 4 months. It's all about portion control, making healthier versions of your meals, moving a little bit more and just adjusting here and there. Another thing that has helped me is NSV (non-scale victories) like pushing through a workout, being less tired, feeling better, clothes fitting looser, ... . And most important thing: there is no bad food/food groups ... you can eat carbs, you can have dessert, you can eat pizza. It's all about portion control, making healthier versions of your meals, moving a little bit more and just adjusting here and there - NO restriction!

What you just described applies to relatively metabolically healthy people and who are not utterly addicted to (bad) carbs/sugar. Know thyself. Are you a moderator, or should you be an abstainer? Great example: moderators can buy a bag of chips or cookies. Then have a few and come back later so late that your treat has gone stale. However people that need to be abstainers are those that buy the same treat, but find that they've consumed it all in a rapid period of time. Or if trying to moderate your consumption of it is like psychological torture...
It's all about eating smarter! knowing how much calories each food adds up and controlling the portion size.. then you can eat whatever you want! Thank you for the video and motivation :)

14:19 Hi! I'm a nutrition counselor & personal chef. Calories is not the way to figure out if something is nutritionally beneficial for your body. The more natural & less processed the food source, the more nutrients it contains. Counting calories is not the way to find out if something is more nutritious. For example, 1 cup of coke is 100 calories , while 1 cup of almonds is 547 calories. Obviously, there's nothing to compare because coke would not be considered nutrient dense, while almonds are and contain many vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein, and healthy fats even though they are more calorie dense. (Not that 1 cup of almonds is a normal serving size, but it makes the point clearer.) Nutrient dense foods also keep you fuller for longer, as opposed to a chocolate bar and a diet soft drink. Of course, enjoy the fun foods in moderation, but don't say they are replacing/ better for you than a nutritious granola bar.
I love that you added that after the weight loss, you continue to have fluctuations. I think that is so important to recognize and understand. Life changes and body changes happen and that is normal. People who have never been overweight have fluxuations. They happen with even small life changes. It shouldn’t result in a panic and worry.
You're so genuinely POSITIVE! Not the "fake" positive kind of vibe just to make us believe it's possible ❤️ I especially love how happily u showed us the loose skin and stretch marks, without any shame and that just made me CLAP 👏👏👏 Nobody should be ashamed of loose skin or stretch marks. They r natural and tell a story of their own and they're much better than being unhealthy and unhappy with your body that always feels tired and worn out (I am not fat shaming, this is not that. If u feel great in ur current body then I applaud u bcos ur indeed b e a u t i f u l and doing something I can't at my current state 👏🍷💜) Great video 🥂
If you are a woman in or post menopause it is quite different. Higher cortisol levels cause lots of weight for us. You have to lower the coritisol levels with no extreme workouts (which raises cortisol). Walking and strength training is a menopausal woman's best friend. Of course proper diet too (mediterranean diet). I hope this helps some oldere women out there who can't figure out why their exercise is not getting rid of the weight or is adding weight on them.
Am I the only one who didn't get the dumplings? What happened to them? How? And, also, the spices aren't mentioned in the description (for the soup) :)
Thank you Lucy, today is my first day in diet after the "lightbulb moment". I lost 25kg and gained them back the last couple of years, so here I am back on track. Your video is very realistic.
@allthingseve That's the problem with diets. The weight will always come back. I did that too and the moment I stopped dieting the weight was coming back with a vengence and more. Now I changed what I eat and I don't need to died anymore. My weight shifts 3pounds up and down, but I don't need to worry that I will gain 15 pounds in 2 weeks. Best of luck to you. You can check Chef AJ an all her guests, that might give you some god ideas too.

You can definitely do this. Don’t forget this is a lifestyle change, not monthly change. 🫶🏽 Don’t feel defeated, just pick up the keys you’ve gained from trial and error and eventually you will have your meal plan down packed, your workout plan down packed. Change something little by little. Baby steps and build that momentum and one day it’ll just be in your nature to make good choices without thought. 🥳🥂
Make small adjustments and take your time! It took me almost a year to lose 8 kg I put on but I was losing about 1kg per month or month and a half. Don't restrict yourself and try to move your bofy whenever you can. You can do this!
Love how you made this really relatable with eating real food and not “Instagram” types meals. If I can lose weight and still eat fajitas I’m in! Lol currently on week two and haven’t seen much progress. Your video has given the motivation to keep going! 😃
I love everything about this video. Every seconds of it were insightful and enjoyable to watch. Thank you, Lucy! Wish us luck with our journey! Stay fab and healthy
I will try the Moroccan Chicken Soup tomorrow, it looks so delicious. Thank you a lot. However, I cannot see the spices you added in, could you please share them? Thank you.
Really appreciate you Lucy! This year I finally just took the uncomplicated approach that you share and have lost body fat over a sustained period of time. I feel so proud of this slow + consistent approach. It honestly doesn’t feel super difficult because I was just eating the same foods, just making small switches so I hardly felt different while I lived a normal life. Some days I ate way more than normal, like at a fam dinner or gathering etc. but I didn’t stress about it. Over 9 months I’ve lost 14 pounds and I feel really good about that. Not too fast, not too slow. Not always consistent but that’s life. Thanks for all the info you put out. It’s very helpful to the rest of us that haven’t studied nutrition science! 🧡😘

I’m a Moroccan and it took quite some time to recognize the lunch dish. We don’t call it soup though but close enough! Really recommend it, it’s delicious
Dear humans, i have to add something, if you are a Person with a Natural menstrual cycle, take that into consideration. weight fluctuates a lot during the cycle. I will weight myself only once a month right after my period. Otherwise you cant track the progress correctly❤️👌👍take care
I have a question im 69 kg and I’m trying to lose weight but ( my skin is getting loose) what will happen to my loose skin after loosing weight do I have to get surgery done ????

You are spot on. The exercise is an acceleration for what you’re already doing with just the right diet/ deficit. The kind of exercise doesn’t matter, as long as you’re active, you’ll lose fat faster. Also you lose fat EVERYWHERE, not just one place. You can’t just target your stomach or just your arms, because it’s doesn’t burn in one place of the body. It’s burns all over. ❤️✨ keep up the great advice!
I'm 55, been disabled since birth and in a wheelchair for a few years now. Entering menopause too... Been seeing my blood work getting worse over the last 2 years and also gained weight above what has been my upper "limit" before hand. I live with a hubby who loves to snack and has no intention of doing anything healthy to get off or reduce his multiple meds for blood pressure, cholesterol, etc, even after multiple heart issues he's had. But I've decided that at my age I don't want to become like him and have 6 meds a day to keep my blood work looking 'good'. I have about 20-25 kilos to lose but I'm not going to go nuts about it. Small, gradual changes that will work for me is the way to go as well as finding more physical activity that I will enjoy. If it takes a year or two - that's fine with me. Thanks for your words and inspiration. You're the first that managed to do that! :)
I’m checking in on you 2 years later to see if you took the bull by the horns and shed some weight off to get your health where you wanted. I hope so! Your comment reached me in the U.S. I wish you all that is happy, healthy, successful, safe and protected! I hope your husband is well, as well.
I don't see anywhere the listing of spices you used in your Morracan chicken soup?? Your video says, see below for list of spices..I've looked EVERYWHERE, and do not see. Thank you
Great video! I lost about 15 kg and it took me 1,5 years. I did no sport at all but changed the way I eat completely. Many things you said in the video reminded me of my journey especially the sweet drink story you shared. I drank softdrinks all the time. So I started to mix them with a third of water, then half and half and then I only drank water because all of a sudden all these sweet drinks were too sweet for my taste. I ate more non produced food and vegetables and didn't have my candy plate around all the time. ;-) Every week sometimes month I wrote dowm my weight and that's it. I still enjoyed my sweet treats like chocolate, cake but I was more aware of the portions like you explained. Many years later I gained a few kilos again so I will do the same what I did back then. I think it was easy for me because I wasn't browsing the internet to get confused by all the false advertising. I simply did what I could and was succesful. Everyone can do it!
Thank you so much for your story ! This was so motivating for me, I’ve had a rough couple of year went from being super fit to gaining back all my weight + more. I’m definitely a new subscriber here, I think it’s more encouraging also when I see people who get the weight loss struggle and know the feeling of being heavy & unhealthy. My you reminded me of so many things I know but just either couldn’t remember (which is so weird) or didn’t focus on. You’re a gem 💎 and I thank you so much !!!
Awww thank you so much Jill! It means so much to me that you can relate to my story and that it helps you in some way! I really hope the new year and beyond is more positive for you, I’m right behind you 💕💕💕
I've been trying this route for the past few weeks, eating healthier, moving more... My only challenge is that I don't really believe I'll lose the weight so it's hard to keep going.
I've gained some weight due to stressful events in life (went up by 2 sizes) and so I've been watching a lot of these kind of videos of people who lost weight. Your are probably the first person I've watched who seems to have a very healthy (both physically and mentally) approach to weight loss. It's very inspiring and it feels close to my heart. I also feel that if I start with just small changes of behaviour, I'll be able to maintain it better in a long term. Thank you for sharing this video and your journey!
Thank you Lucy! I’ve always hated wanting to go to the gym because it would hurt or make me anxious and was always so nervous to even step on the treadmill. And my diet is horrible rn and I always watch videos of other fitness guru and their GRWM videos and it would be so unrealistic?! But after watching with this video I feel so.. motivated!!
I love your energy! Super inspirational. I love how you focus on how quickly the weight will drop once you get into a rhythm. Thats the hard part for most people.
This feels a lot like intuitive eating which is wonderful. You didn't force yourself to eat a big breakfast because you weren't hungry, you ate something that was filling and delicious for lunch and then you allowed food that you loved and craved. No wonder that worked for you because that is very sustainable
I’ve come across your video by chance. I’m 52 I had always been in a gorgeous physical shape until I reached 45 then something changed and I’m now probably 10/15 kg overweight. I keep saying “Tomorrow!!” But it never happens. You’re lovely and inspiring. I hope this is the right time to start. You are simply amazing, so balanced and wise. Adorable xxx
Same with me - looked at my body and didn't recognize it. Cut down to fo meals per day - 12pm and 4pm and lost a stone so far, better but going for another one. Hope you are doing ok x
wow we have the same exact story growing up gaining the weight! i don’t think i’ve ever watched someone that i can fully relate to their story but i can with yours! i lost 50lbs in the last year & am working on another 30 or so more!
I remember first time when i decided to lose weight. I was walking in city and seen my reflection in one of store window. And then in hit me i had to do something that time i was 17 years old and already on 100kg. I lost like 18kg that time, stop working out for almost 7 years after i get to university. And now im back on my journey for year and half and more serious about it then ever. Now im first time in my life at state when im intetionaly adding more callories to my diet, call it lean bulking, to gain more muscels. Btw great video and great tips for someone who starting with his/her fitness jurney.
Awww wow, you are the perfect example of the journey. It really is a lifelong journey and rarely thought of like that!!! Well done for everything you have achieved and I just know you are going to achieve anything you put your mind to! Thank you for the feedback and I am so happy you agree! xxx
Can someone help with the soup recipe? It sounds amazing but how long does it need to boil for etc. and when do we add in the dumplings? And is the chicken just chucked in the pan with no oil or anything at the start?
Oh my gosh. I have a similar experience with my weight. I don’t see myself that large but for some reason when I see photos of myself I realize how different I see myself than what it’s really there. When I weigh myself I’m considered “overweight” but I don’t see it. It’s strange but at the same time I do see it. I can’t explain it. I think my diet is okay but I struggle with motivation to move and workout.
It's a really strange feeling right! You only need to do what you want to do so just do you and find what you enjoy the most even if that takes some time! x
Exactly the same here. Funny though, when I was younger, I always saw myself in the mirror and thought I am to fat while being too thin, now it's the other way around. -.- On the bright side: I have a much better mindset. I wouldn't trade my weight now for any of my insecurites I had back then. But of course I'd feel even better, being thin again. That would be perfect!

Thank you for an amazing video! I am a lot older than you and am trying to shift 10KG but because of my age, it is proving hard. I will take some of your advice and see how it goes. Keep up the good work!
The video is just what I needed. I got weight slowly in corona time and then it has become faster after I lost my father. (It has been 1,5 years). I am super fat and I feel ashamed to go gym because of my fatty-girl looking. I am all the time post ponding my events: going for a hike or skiing etc. I feel I am not able to do those. I always wait the day that I am gonna be fit and comfortable. But int he meantime, I do not do diet either.. I just started doin exercise again. This video made me motivated a lot.
I started to cry when you said your weight has fluctuated about 10kg since. My goal weight is 60kg and I was at 60.5 two weeks ago, but today i weigh 62 kg. I panicked and I feel so bad. Thank you so much for saying that.

Lucy, I love your vibe! I have recommitted to losing weight recently, and want to lose enough to wear my size 14 pants. It is cold and snowy right now, but I am walking in the basement, and working out on the elliptical trainer. Looking forward to watching more of your videos!!😊
Am I just missing the spices for the soup or did you not add them? I have been wanting to try the soup since I watched the video last week and It looks amazing and I got the things I need to make it!
I love how your changes are realistic, satiating, and fun. I’m so excited to make your Morroccon soup! New subscriber ❤️ I’m trying to lose 10 lbs and it’s been SO HARD! You’re so motivating. Thank you!
I love this video. Such practical and achievable advice. One question, what are ur thoughts regarding suppliments like protein powder for someone starting out? Thanks and amazing information 🙂

Thank you so much. I really enjoyed listening to you. I guess those tips will be quite helpful and I have a feeling you really want to help us achieve change for the better. Thank you so much again. -3.5 kgs already, 15.3 kgs more to go….
You're beautiful , well spoken, kind and humble in your approach. Congratulations on your weigh loss and thank you for your thorough explanation really helpful
Dear Lucy, I have recently discovered your channel and I LOVE your videos! Thank you so so much! I would love to cook the soup as it looks delicious! Could you please tell which spices (and how much) you have used? I couldn‘t find that in the info box. :) Thank you!
I hardly ever comment on RU-vid, but I must say this. I listened to this while driving today and whne I got home I started peeling vegetables to make soup. It's Wednesday night and my lunch soup is prepared, my oats for the breakfast is soaked. Alarm set for my workout. I workout and can be consistent with that but always struggle with food.
"move more, eat less" Ok so having it phrased that simply was a penny drop moment for me, for some reasons! :| Thanks? … Thanks!!! that's easy to remember and to tell myself, without too much brain power!
Dear Lucy, I was 146kg around 5 years ago. I began my weight loss journey in 2018 and lost 40kg by early 2020. I was super disciplined with myself and I became so much happier. I was hooked with kick boxing and I went to the gym 5 times a week. By then Covid happened but I tried to stay consistent as possible. Unfortunately I went into a mental breakdown due to multiple lockdowns and succumbed to overeating again. It’s 2023 and I am now 136kg, I gained so much of weight. I became in denial but it struck me hard when the clothes that was loose on me are now super tight again. I am currently struggling to get back on track... came across your channel and it made me realised that I should not procrastinate and should give it a serious go again. Easier said than done but I’m not getting any younger, my family and friends are living their best lives now. I must find my mojo again... thank you Lucy. Love your story on your weight loss journey . If anyone is reading this and you’re struggling like me... PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP ON YOUR WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY
This has been so helpful you’re the first person I’ve come across so far whose day to day life is similar to mine so it’s a bit easier to envision myself doing this🥰
Omg your cat in the background @10:32 😂😍 PS love this video, you are so down to earth and relatable. I can definitely hear the Ozzy lilt in your voice!
What an awesome video! I must tell you, I came across your stuff by accident, but have become a big fan of what you do and what you are about. Thanks so much for inspiring, I am lifting my butt right now to go for a quick run with my daughter.
@@lucylismore It was great! It's actually scary to think that at the beginning of this year I could not even run 400m. Now at least up to 2.5km at a time.
Hi Marianne If you need healthy holiday treat ideas you can go check out Nibble Eats on youtube. We are working on a healthy holiday sides video going up next week. There are also plenty of sweet treats that you can make guilt free :) I just started the channel so please go show me some love :)
I am now five weeks into Lucy's beginner workout program and let me tell you, I tried so many times to lose weight and get fit but it never worked for me. By saying that I mean several workout programs (BBG, freeletics, Chloe Ting, free style) and a lot of different diets (5:2, 16:8, and unhealthy free style diets, too) in the last years. I am not fat or something, actually just at the top of normal BMI but I was never really happy with my pear shape and belly area and felt that I don't even have an impact on my body, no matter what. However, with doing the beginner program and starting a mostly low carb diet with a few exceptions, I managed to loose 2kg in four weeks and I am already able to do exercise that I couldn't do before. For me the biggest difference in this program is that I actually have fun when exercising because I am not completely overwhelmed and exhausted. So as a person who was ususally disappointed and discouraged after every other training, I can really recommend it to everyone who might feel the same way 💪😊
I just stumbled onto this video and I am so glad I did! Excellent advice! One question I have is how long are your workout sessions? Mine normally go from an hour and a half to 2 hours (3-5 days a week) and I feel I am maybe overdoing it, as I feel the motivation to do workouts this long the next day starting to wane. I also go indoor rock climbing 2 times a week.
Arrrgh, I've lost so much weight and kept it of for years but I just can't loose the last 10kgs. I'm at the upper end of healthy sometimes sitting in the overweight range. Because I lift heavy weights with a focus on progressive overload I maintain this weight eating whatever I want. I am truly happy about this but wish I could find the drive to loose another 10kgs. I had so much determination to achieve what I have to date but I just can't get my head back into the game. I have lost over 30kgs and kept it off for 3 years now. I train 5 to 6 days a week. I'm a size medium and 171cms tall. So I'm OK but I'd love to be slimmer just not enough I guess
I must say, your video is one of the most realistic videos I've seen so far. I learned so much with this video and you truly gave me the 'click' I needed! ♥️♥️♥️
