    I am an animal activist, and it feels so usual for me to be depressed and sad all the time after seeing all the horrible footages and outreaching with the public. Your dishes help me a lot, gives me strength to stand up again and fight for the voiceless.

    Thanks for the great video, Derek! I have started a fitness protocol and I am currently trying to build (for strength). Body recomp is not really an option for me. I am quite lean, my home scale says 9% body fat and 45% muscle mass, but I know that home scales are not really trustworthy (I am a 44 yo woman, btw). I don't want to add extra fat, because I am a professional dancer, so I wish to keep the caloric surplus as low as possible, but still gain strength. Also I don't necesarily want to have a lot of hypertrophy, again because of my dancing. I would love to learn more about why we need to be in caloric surplus to build strength, and how to approach it if you can't do body recomp. Maybe Crystal can give some advice how she does this without counting calories and measuring all the food. How to interpret hunger cues eating in a slight caloric surplus whole food plant based. Should I just eat a little bit more than my hunger cues, or will my hunger automatically increase when I am building strength (working out with progressive overload). I have always eating based on my hunger cues (not counting calories), but since I eat whole food plant based (7 years), I noticed that I sometimes don't eat enough because I will feel full (and then wake up hungry, because apparently the meal was too low in calories). Btw, I eat a well balanced diet (legumes, whole grains, veggies, fruit, nuts, seeds, tofu, tempeh, soy, TVM, and recently started using plant protein powder and creatine). Thanks for your reply. Maybe it would be an interesting topic for a video. Love your channel, always so inspiring and motivating, both for fitness and for nutrition!!!

    Guys are lucky. They get to eat sooo much food and don't get fat. I could eat all that and more, but I'd be a whale. I have to suffer everyday cause I'm so hungry all the time. I only get 1700-1800 calories and it just doesn't feel like enough, but if I eat more than that, I gain weight.
