♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡
this is a one week program i made based on various brandy melville girls on youtube. i've been watching their vlogs and eating videos to curate this program based on what a brandy melville model lifestyle is like. before you start, set a calorie limit for yourself for this program - i recommend taking your TDEE and subtracting 500 from it, which will give you a nice, clean, sustainable weight loss of 2.2lbs a week by default (obviously higher with exercise). for the recommended meals, you can take some food out or add some in to suit your calorie limit.
♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡
day 1
brandy girls have a refined, straight posture. you'll never catch them slouching or with lazy, drooping shoulders. to improve your posture, stand straight against the wall. pretend the wall is pushing all your limbs towards it and you have no choice but to stand completely straight with your chin up. remain in this position for a few minutes, then, not breaking the posture, walk around so you get used to the feeling.
exercise
take a 1 hour walk with perfect posture. if you get tired, walk slower, but no matter what do NOT slouch. having a good posture can make you look inches taller than you are! not to mention how classy and polished you'll look. finish off with a steady 20 minute jog. if you're unable to jog for whatever reason, do another 1 hour walk.
recommended meals
today is a high carb day so you start off with a lot of energy. have some oatmeal for breakfast, with whatever add-ins fit within your caloric intake. for lunch have some avocado toast (sprouted/whole wheat bread if possible) with any seasonings you'd like. for dinner the choice is yours!
day 2
today is a self-care day so that you can focus on perfecting your skincare routine. do a DIY mask based on your skin type. don't forget sunscreen if you want youthful, age-defying skin. speaking of skin, you know what's bad for it? dairy! it's no wonder why lots of brandy girls avoid dairy or go vegan altogether. milk can increase your blood sugar level which stimulates hormones like testosterone that directly cause more oil. opt for plant based milks (which are also really low cal), or just simply avoid dairy. that means no yogurts, cheeses, or milk.
exercise
since today is a self-care day, do one hour of relaxing yoga and one hour of pilates. (link: https://tinyurl.com/1houryogaaa for yoga, repeat 3 times for pilates i recommend "blogilates" on youtube)
recommended meals
today is kind of a freebie, just don't go over your calorie limit, and no dairy. also, processed carbs can be just as bad as dairy for your skin, so no white bread, white rice, pasta, or sugary cereals, either.
day 3
brandy melville is famous for its chill, laidback californian vibe. you wouldn't be wearing stuffy sweatpants or jeans in the sweltering california heat, would you? brandy girls usually opt for a cute pair of shorts or a high-waisted skirt, so you need to get those legs in shape!
exercise
do a booty/leg workout on youtube. i recommend chloe ting's workouts, they seriously burn so many calories and will get you that brandy body. repeat three times, feel free to take a break in between. (link: https://tinyurl.com/chloeslegworkout)
recommended meals
since you're trying to tone your legs, make sure to consume lots of protein today. for breakfast have some scrambled eggs or tofu scramble. for lunch a simple protein shake of your choice will suffice, use plant based milk/protein powder if you have some available. if not, i highly recommend buying some. for dinner, make a tofu stir fry (link: https://tinyurl.com/tofustirfryxx). if you're using the recipe i attached, modify the ingredients as needed to fit your calories.
day 4
brandy girls are well-known for their advocacy for "juice cleanses." juice cleanses give your metabolism, digestive system, and energy levels a much needed detox. for the sake of this program one day will suffice, but i highly recommend you doing a full three day cleanse once you're done with this program.
exercise
since your legs might be sore, focus on toning those arms today. do 200 push-ups (knee pushups if you're unable to do a regular one) and 30 planks (45s each) scattered throughout the day.
recommended meals
juice cleanse. i personally love these recipes (https://tinyurl.com/...ecleanserecipes) but feel free to use any you'd like. you can also buy premade detox juices if you can afford them.
day 5
water clears your skin and gives you that hydrated, glowing complexion that's trademark of brandy girls. ever notice they don't seem to wear a lot of makeup? today, buy a cute water bottle that you can sip from throughout the day. feel free to add lemon or mint for extra flavor. experiment with other veggies/herbs. try to not drink any alcohol, it's pretty much a waste of calories.
exercise
do chloe ting's "do this everyday to lose weight" (link=https://tinyurl.com/chloetingshred) workout and have a brief water break every set. make sure to drink at least 3 liters of water today, and 2 liters everyday for the rest of the program. repeat at LEAST four times throughout the day. take breaks as needed, but get it done! you can do this!
recommended meals
since we're trying to up our water intake, continuously snack on veggies and fruits with a high water content. for veggies: zucchini (hint: zoodles), cauliflower (cauliflower rice), celery, cucumber, iceberg lettuce, tomato, broccoli, and spinach. for fruits: blueberries, plums, apricots, oranges, pineapples, melons, cantaloupes, and raspberries.
day 6
one of the staples of a brandy girl's wardrobe is crop tops. showing off your lean, toned stomach will be sure to garner the envy of everyone around you. before you start trying to get those chiseled abs, you have to lose fat around your entire body. luckily, working out makes this a simple feat.
exercise
again, do chloe ting's "do this everyday to lose weight" workout (linked earlier). supplement with her HIIT workout (link=https://tinyurl.com/10minhiit). repeat each four times. your body will thank you!
recommended meals
protein day! for breakfast have some proats (blend together vegan protein powder and oats) with any toppings that fit your calories. for lunch, make some lentil stew (recipe that i love: https://tinyurl.com/lentilstewmm). if you're still hungry, for dinner have some cauliflower fried rice (https://tinyurl.com/y65syo2n - vegans can substitute or take out the egg).
day 7
all that hard work led to your first photoshoot! photoshoot days are quite busy. for breakfast you only had time for a cup of green tea before you had to rush to the shoot. you only get one lunch break, and by the time you're home you're so exhausted you forget to eat before you fall asleep.
exercise
during a photoshoot, models are on their feet the entire day. aim for 15k+ steps today and spend as much time as you can standing rather than lounging in bed. don't forget that posture!
recommended meals
today is OMAD (one meal a day). your meal should be packed with nutrients and protein, so i recommend a salad/lots of veggies with a protein such as tofu, tempeh, or some salmon.
♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡
if you stick to your calorie limit along with this program, you should see results in your body within a week. these results will continue to add up as you repeat the program. good luck, you got this !

Servings: 8 - 234 kcal/5g protein per pinwheel
1 package (8 oz) Pillsbury Original Crescent Roll Sheet*
1 batch Vegan Pistachio Pesto (or 1 cup of any pesto)
8 sun-dried tomatoes (chopped/cut)
1. Sprinkle some flour on your working surface and roll out the Pillsbury Crescent Dough Sheet, being careful to not pull it apart. Pinch together any of the perforations, making sure it is one continuous sheet of dough.
2. Spread the pesto over the whole sheet and sprinkle sun-dried tomatoes.
3. Take the shorter side and roll up the sheet of dough being sure that the end is pinched together so nothing falls out.
4. Cut off the sad-looking ends that might not be exactly perfect, then cut the roll into 8 pieces. Note, you can still cook the ends but they won't look as cute as the other parts of the rolls.
5. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-16 minutes or until the edges get a golden brown.
6. Enjoy your festivities!
HELLO Y'ALL, since my low cal pizza recipe was a success i decided to post another one of my go-to recipes!
Disclaimer: i do not encourage eating disorders, i am not a nutritionist whatsoever, but i have studied nutrition for five years so i’ll give you some tips to curb cravings without guilt
Another disclaimer: i did not steal this recipe, i was fucking around in the kitchen one day and found this gem and after a while i decided to post it here :)
ok so first of all you’ll need
1 tbsp of sweetener (0 cal)
2 tbsp of flour (52 cal)
2 tbsp of oats (76 cal)
1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar (5 cal)
0.3 tsp of cinnamon (3 cal)
0.3 tsp of ginger (3 cal)
5 tbsp water (0 cal)
After mixing all dry ingredients add the wet ones (i usually eyeball this part but by measuring it should be around 5/6 tbsp of water and depending on how strong is the apple taste of your vinegar you may want to change the measurements a bit)
it should have this consistency
then cook them like normal pancakes, by flipping them when u see bubbles on the surface
if you don’t use oil don’t forget to use a non-stick pan or else you’ll just have a giant delicious mess
and voila! as you can see, they’re super easy to make and totally guilt-free!
the whole batch is just 137 cal, so one pancake is just 34 calories!
now, for the useful tips:
oats have a little bit more calories but since they have a lot of fiber they’ll make you feel full for longer
when you restrict a lot your insulin levels are all fucked up, so please, if you have 50 spare calories, swap the sweetener for real sugar, it will give you a bit of energy and curb the sugar craving while still being rly low cal overall
binges happen bc you lose control over ur cravings, so to take the power away from food try incorporating everyday some foods that you usually crave (e.g. since i often crave sweet stuff and pizza i eat these pancakes and my low cal pizza basically everyday), since i started doing this i haven’t basically binged!! (and i’m bulimic so… yeah that says a lot)
(2-3 portions)
You need:
-200g broccoli (56)
-200g champignons (44)
-1tsp vegetable broth(10)
-soy sauce, spices (optional)
How to:
-cut the veggies into smaller pieces
-put them in a pan and stir for a minute
- add in ur 50ml vegetable broth and put a lit on top.
-wait for the broccoli to be done then add in ur spices and soy sauce(if you want to)
Enjoy:)
99 cal. pancakes!
I have officially perfected my pancake recipe.

Ingredients:
1 +1/2 tablespoon flour 42 cal
1 egg white 15 cal
2 table spoons low cal milk ( I used soy milk) 12 cal
Applesause or 30 g of banana :30 cal. (Idk how much applesause you are supposed to use since the one I used is homemade and was only 1 apple, so I used half of that =30 cal)
Cinnamon 0 cal
A sprinkle of baking powder 0 cal
Sweetener 0 cal
Steps
Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form.
Mix the other ingredients in a separate bowl, starting with the dry ones ->wet.
Mix in the egg whites into the bowl with wet and dry ingredients.

1/3 package Impossible Burger (240)
1 Package Bunapi mushrooms (35)
1 package Shiitake mushrooms (40)
1/2 onion (20)
3 cloves garlic (0)
1/2 Tablespoon oil (50)

1 Teaspoon onion powder (8)
5 Tablespoons water
1 Teaspoon vegan bouillon (10)
Pepper (0)
Heat oil in skillet
Break apart Impossible Burger, and sauté on med-high heat until just starting to brown
Add chopped onion, cook until just translucent
Add mushrooms, pepper, onion powder, and Oregano. Sauté covered until mushrooms begin to soften.
Add water, bouillon, and garlic. Cook for a few more minutes to deglaze the pan, and until mushrooms are cooked to your liking.
