What I Eat in a Week

I'm about to show you my perfect meal

0:02

plan I've been eating every week. I

0:03

rarely share my own recipes cuz I'm a

0:06

little insecure and a lot of you tell me

0:08

that I eat like a caveman who recently

0:10

discovered fire. So, as the video goes

0:12

on and you have an opinion about my

0:14

cooking, comment me in the comments,

0:16

bro.

0:16

>> It's about to go down.

0:19

>> To make the perfect meal plan, we have

0:20

to take a look at three factors. The

0:22

first one is the GABA diet, focusing on

0:25

protein, carbs, and fat. you know, uh,

0:28

we can care about it less.

0:29

Micronutrients and vitamins don't exist.

0:32

The second factor is convenience. I'm in

0:34

law school right now. I'll talk about

0:35

that a little later. So, I'm always

0:37

running out of time. I have a lot of

0:39

homework to do, even though I don't do

0:40

them, but I like to pretend that I do.

0:42

Last, but very much least on this food

0:45

channel. Taste doesn't really matter.

0:47

What matters is uh getting these games.

0:50

Now, let me explain to you my weekly

0:52

schedule.

0:54

So, Monday to Thursday, I have classes

0:57

from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. There's some

0:59

gaps in between, but I don't like to

1:01

leave school. And on Wednesday, I have

1:02

an additional night class running all

1:04

the way till 7:00 p.m. These days, I

1:06

really do need the meal plan. Friday to

1:08

Sunday, I tend to leave it open. I

1:10

either go out to dinner or I'll attend

1:12

one of those legal advocacy dinner to

1:15

steal free food. Like last week, I was

1:17

at a Jewish LGBTQ+

1:19

award show dinner. I'm not Jewish. I'm

1:22

straight. But who says an ally can't

1:25

support the community by eating lasagna

1:27

garlic bread too quickly?

1:32

From the moment I wake up till 12:00, I

1:34

don't really eat anything cuz I feel

1:35

like I think a little clearer on an

1:37

empty stomach. Around 12:00, 12:30 is

1:39

when I finish my criminal law class. At

1:41

this point of the day, I'm usually

1:42

pretty traumatized from all these

1:44

murders and So, I'm going to need

1:46

some substance in my system to continue.

1:48

I tend to go with the David bar, in

1:49

particular the blueberry pie one. It

1:51

tastes like a blueberry pie. Now, I'm

1:53

aware that the company David Proteins

1:56

currently being sued in a class action

1:57

led by Danella Lopez alleging that the

2:00

nutrition label lied about it being 150

2:02

calories is actually closer to 300.

2:04

There's a significant underestimate of

2:06

the fat content, but the counter claim

2:08

from David saying that the fat that they

2:10

use, EPG, is an artificial vegetable fat

2:13

that tastes like fat but actually don't

2:15

get absorbed by the body. much similar

2:17

to artificial sugars, even though they

2:19

technically have calories, but we just

2:21

put it right out. But I was raised by

2:23

reasonable parents, guys. My dad once

2:25

made me smoke an entire pack of

2:27

cigarettes just to teach me a lesson on

2:30

brand loyalty.

2:36

>> Now is when things start getting seas

2:39

after 4:00, I start heading home. I

2:41

usually walk to get that steps in, you

2:42

know, and all of us know that no hunger

2:45

can even come close to the after school

2:47

hunger that you get. So by 4:30, I am

2:50

dying. We need something quick and easy

2:51

to sustain ourselves before going crazy.

2:54

Lollip. These tomatoes are so sweet.

2:57

They literally taste like somebody added

2:58

sugar to them. Make a quick salad with

3:00

it.

3:07

>> Sicilian sea salt or virgin olive oil.

3:10

You know, I never used to get the hype

3:12

of this until I actually got a bottle.

3:15

It's so naturally sweet. The vinegar is

3:17

actually going to bring out the

3:19

sweetness of the tomatoes even more. No

3:21

need for anything else. I guess if I

3:23

wasn't cutting, I'll be putting some

3:24

mozzarella. Just straight up vegetables

3:26

for now.

3:30

Now 6:00 p.m. We're having dinner number

3:32

one. It's egg whites. Not just any egg

3:35

white. is the signature future canoe gab

3:38

egg white special sauce dish. Now, if

3:41

you have been watching the channel for a

3:43

while, you'll notice that the most

3:45

frequently returned character is

3:47

actually not PA, it's steamed egg white.

3:50

I eat it every single day, and I have

3:52

pretty much mastered the art of cooking

3:54

seared egg white. It's almost like a

3:57

sunny side up. Kind of crispy on the

3:59

bottom, soft and fluffy on top. And

4:01

we're doing it in a stainless steel.

4:02

Many of you who are doubters will be

4:05

asking what if it sticks. There's no fat

4:07

content in egg white and it might stick.

4:10

Let me tell you something. When a master

4:12

is cooking, you should um be quiet and

4:15

just watch the art that's being formed.

4:17

It's not going to stick. You see how I

4:19

got the pan at the right temperature,

4:21

the oil is hot, the egg white is dropped

4:23

into the oil at the exact time, it will

4:26

release itself from the stainless steel

4:27

and steam on top simultaneously,

4:30

ensuring a perfect dish.

4:35

No matter how low effort my meal prep

4:37

is, I still have to spend half a day

4:39

cooking and cleaning. That's why I've

4:40

been using Factor. Factor delivers

4:42

fresh, chef crafted, dietitian approved

4:45

meals straight to my doorstep. It's made

4:47

staying on track so much easier when I'm

4:48

busy. No prep, no clean up, heat, eat,

4:51

done in 2 minutes. I've been liking the

4:53

daily greens cuz it's once daily green

4:56

drinks that taste good and makes it easy

4:58

to get in real veggies and nutrients I

5:00

might be missing. What surprised me the

5:01

most is how many options they have.

5:03

There are like 100 plus rotating weekly

5:05

options like meal, salads, breakfast,

5:08

and shakes. And the meals always have a

5:10

smart balance of carbs, healthy fat,

5:12

protein. My favorite part is just how

5:14

easy it is to add into my routine. If

5:17

5:38

are in pieces. We'll drizzle on top a

5:41

simple sauce like a Thai peanut sauce

5:44

similar to the ones on chicken saté. Two

5:46

tablespoon of PB2. I have this like

5:48

chili bean paste thing. I call it the

5:51

lit sauce cuz I don't know what it is,

5:53

but it's lit.

5:55

>> Teaspoon of soy sauce cuz this is

5:58

already really salty. Water. It's okay.

6:02

This is our salad dressing.

6:07

I

6:09

feel on the gas now. Move out the way

6:12

about to go down. Coming in hot, I ain't

6:14

back down. Won't give it to me. I'll

6:16

take that ground. Moving and shaking.

6:17

I'm shaking that ground. Got to stay

6:19

ready. I'm ready right now. I bring the

6:21

making the sound for you cuz I'm

6:32

The craziest part is I usually eat with

6:34

this plastic spoon, too.

6:38

Don't knock it till you try it.

6:40

Literally tastes like

6:43

pat thai.

6:48

Up till 8:00 p.m. I haven't really had a

6:50

real meal. I found intermittent fasting

6:52

to be a little too harsh on the stomach.

6:54

So, I do this thing called macro

6:56

fasting, just focusing on protein

6:58

forward meals till later and you start

7:00

eating carbs and fat. Learned about this

7:01

from my boy Well Tennyson. To work on

7:03

your health and fitness, you really

7:05

don't need to pay anyone or sign up for

7:07

programs. So many great YouTubers

7:09

sharing their experiences and expertise

7:11

for free on the internet. Like my whole

7:13

workout routine is an exact replica of

7:16

Wills. And what you do at the gym is not

7:18

that important anyways. You got to focus

7:19

on the diet, sleep, and the dose of your

7:22

steroid. So for the flavor of the

7:24

chicken, we're going to keep it as

7:26

simple as possible. Just aromatics,

7:27

herbs, and one lemon. Okay. Something is

7:31

smelling so bad right now.

7:33

I think it's coming from the chicken

7:35

cavity.

7:36

Then we'll grab the

7:39

the the the lips.

7:42

Use the lips to enclose it. You know,

7:45

kind of open up the skin. And instead of

7:47

butter, we're going to stuff it with our

7:50

never- ending wagu fat. Pull back and

7:53

just push forward.

7:55

Stuff it in.

8:00

Pull back.

8:02

push forward. Now I have them stuffed

8:05

and oiled up. We'll do one last round of

8:08

seasoning. Make sure we put a lot of

8:10

salt on top to crisp up the skin. All

8:13

right, so with the oven on 375, we'll

8:15

put these two in. So 30 minutes for each

8:18

pound. This is about 3.5. So we'll do

8:21

about an hour and a half. 20 minutes for

8:25

each pound, sorry. To go with it, we're

8:27

going to have some salt baked potatoes.

8:29

Yukon Gold cuz it's naturally sweet and

8:32

buttery and the salt is going to extract

8:34

a lot of the moisture it has to make it

8:37

even fluffier. Here's a few holes for

8:39

the air to escape later. There's about

8:42

30 minutes left. I'll take out the

8:45

potatoes. It should be ready when we can

8:48

like pierce it through semi easily with

8:51

a knife. Right now the I feel like the

8:53

chicken's already cooked, but we want

8:55

some more color on there. So every day

8:57

you can have half of this chicken. It's

8:59

about 700 calories packed with protein.

9:01

So two whole chicken will last you 4

9:03

days. And I don't really account for the

9:05

fat that we used. I think it just mostly

9:07

acts like a protector of the meat. As it

9:10

bakes and rest, it just fall off, right?

9:12

Like my channel.

9:14

Still really hot in here for dinner

9:22

with the baked potato.

9:24

go over to my TV and just have a good

9:28

time, you know, with the glove and

9:30

everything. Actually pretty juicy.

9:34

Some of that Frank Red Hot on top there.

9:37

And this is why I'm wondering if my

9:39

subscribers are tired of hearing about

9:41

protein maxing and gab diet on this

9:43

channel. I want to give you some context

9:44

to my obsession. So, as a kid, I

9:47

developed many, many bad habits in terms

9:49

of eating. One of my favorites where I

9:51

used to unwrap a whole box of Ferro

9:53

Rocher, put them in a bowl and I'll eat

9:56

them like popcorn while watching TV. I

9:58

can kill two boxes in one sitting. You

10:00

know, just the kid eating his feelings

10:02

away while waiting for my dad to come

10:04

back with the milk.

10:05

>> They're just food. They're not love.

10:07

>> So, after a large dinner, we got to top

10:10

it off with a nice dessert. And I call

10:12

it a blueberry cheesecake. Starting with

10:16

about a cup of cottage cheese. To

10:19

sweeten this up, we have our

10:20

zerocalorie. I think 15 calories. And is

10:23

butter flavor, so it tastes like there's

10:25

butter in it.

10:29

Our blueberries. Here is the key

10:31

ingredient. Creamify it with a jello

10:34

snack. Sugar-free, of course. You can

10:36

pick your own flavors. Usually I go with

10:38

the chocolate, but today I think churro

10:42

delissioso.

10:45

It's not only going to give it a nice

10:47

smooth texture, but also going to add

10:51

additional flavor and sweeten it.

10:55

You don't have to mix it too thoroughly.

10:58

Inconsistency sometimes adds to it. All

11:01

right.

11:04

Damn.

11:06

It literally tastes like a choro

11:08

cheesecake. I'm actually pretty proud of

11:10

this one. It keeps you really full, too.

11:12

That's the goal of the Gab diet. You

11:15

want to eat the minimal amount, but

11:17

feeling the most bloated. Now, it's

11:19

pretty late. We should probably call it

11:20

a day. I weigh around 160 lbs. So, 2,000

11:23

calories more than enough for me. But

11:25

sometimes if I did cardio or still

11:27

feeling hungry, I might just add a

11:29

snack. I really recommend these Quaker

11:31

Rice Crisps. Very easy on your stomach.

11:33

And sometimes if you want a more

11:35

expensive option or low on protein, uh,

11:37

I like these Korean flavor wilds chips.

11:40

It's made from chicken breast. Ending

11:41

the day with 2100 and this macro

11:44

breakdown. Pretty solid. Do I stick to

11:46

this meal plan every single week? Not

11:48

really. You know, life comes up. Your

11:49

friends ask you to get fro yo and now

11:51

you have to skip a meal. That it it

11:53

happens. The key is to stick to it most

11:55

of the time. I think any type of health

11:57

or fitness goals should be looked at in

11:59

terms of years instead of month or

12:01

weeks. Well, thank you for making

12:03

through this unusual format of a video.

12:05

I realized we didn't do a Q&A last year,

12:07

so this is another way for me to yap.

12:09

I'll be sharing more personal stuff this

12:11

year leading up to the face reveal. All

12:13

right, thank you.

12:20

We don't
