Welcome to my new series on eating like a Vicoria’s Secret Angel. I will be posting weekly on this series on any of my social media platforms so please check them out and follow me if you want to keep up to date on this series. Links are in the top right.
Disclaimer: I am not a nutrition expert. Please advise your doctor before you change your diet, especially if you have medical conditions. This is not to tell you how to eat. This is what I have observed from Romee Strijd from her Youtube vlogs; and I am taking her eating habits and applying them to my diet. I am not limiting myself entirely from sugar, carbs, or fats. I plan on eating wholesome nutritional food that is healthy and to personally document my experience and possibly improve my nutrition and digestion.
I went to Walmart and picked up these food containers with dividers that are similar to ones that Romee Strijd has on her vlogs, they were only $3. I also picked up this cute bowl mug from TjMaxx for my overnight oats because to be honest I had to motivate myself to make this oats for my breakfasts because I wasn’t sure how it would turn out.

5 Tips for Success
Tip 1: If you cannot afford protein powder you can add peanut butter or milk alternatives to your oats instead; Romee likes to have both, just a little tip.
Tip 2: Berries are also expensive generally so you can buy frozen berries at the same price with more quantity and lasts longer; if you don’t end up eating them.
Tip 3: Use what you already have. I have a lot of pollack in my freezer so I will be having that for a couple weeks for lunches and dinner too.
Tip 4: If you suffer from bloating or discomfort from eating please advise your doctor. With this diet, I do recommend a probiotic for digestion due to the increase in fiber consumption. i.e. fiberone powder or add yogurt to your diet. Personally I hate yogurt! But, I try to find ones that are yummy like a dessert.
Tip 5: Don’t starve yourself. Remember to eat enough for you to not go hungry. These models needs to stay full of protein to sustain their energy and muscles, crash diets don’t work. Fill your body with wholesome nutritional foods and cook at home to get your nutrients without paying a fortune eating out.
Meal prep and curb the #hanger.
