Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced Maggie: Which means that it’s spreading and your guys reviews help that and telling your friends and your homies. Ryan: The amount of – the quantity of reviews to listeners does not equate right now so let’s get that number closer. Maggie: Ryan, let’s just – if you guys have got any value from this podcast we would love a review. We love to hear why you listen. Why do you tune in? Ryan: Yeah, why the freak do you listen to this? Maggie: Yeah, let us know. Ryan: It’s a great question. Maggie: What you’ve gotten out of it. Ryan: This week on TikTok I learned about this apple pie oatmeal recipe thing. It has carbs. So, if you don’t like carbs it’s not going to work for you. But it’s got – you cook applies in sugar free choc zero caramel syrup and put cinnamon. Then you put Greek yoghurt in a mason jar with rolled oats and a little bit of milk. Maggie: Guys, he just learned what overnight oats are. I know it’s 2021 but he just learned. Ryan: I love oatmeal, I’ve always loved oatmeal. Maggie: I know. But haven’t you heard of overnight oats? Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced Ryan: I still don’t know. Do you just put them in the fridge? Maggie: Basically, you prepped it the night before and it sits in what – they get really soft? Ryan: Yeah, they do. Maggie: So, you can make oatmeal without the whole deal. I mean yours is kind of fancy but people can do it without needing a stove and all that when they do it, overnight oats. Ryan: Yeah, it’s very high protein, good break your fast meal. And I’ve been eating it every day. It’s very, very tasty. Maggie: He loves apple pie and stuff. I haven’t had oatmeal in ages. Even when we first met you used to make instant oatmeal, yeah, I don’t. Ryan: Yes. And you refused to even taste it. Maggie: Instant oatmeal? Ryan: The thing I make. Maggie: Yeah, I don’t, I’m not interested in that. I’m just not interested. We have different tastes. I did tell him I did used to eat oatmeal all the time. And it was oatmeal cooked normal with a little bit of salt until the water’s gone. And then you put it into a thing and it’s just like slosh. And then you put milk in it, just normal ass milk and then sugar, straight sugar. And it is balm, it is so good. And I almost wonder about, listen, I don’t screw around with almond milk. I do use it in my coffee but you guys who are putting it in cereal and stuff I’m just like, why? How? No. So I won’t. Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced But I would be interested in making oatmeal, putting milk in it, just normal milk. And then a sugar replacement, like Lokanto is really granulated and wondering if it tastes the same. Because I’m literally pouring two tablespoons of sugar. It wasn’t light sugar but it was delicious and it was warm but also cold, because it was warm because of the oats and cold because of the milk and it just really takes me back. So, I get your passion for oatmeal but in this day and age in the life that I lead I can’t make it happen. And I don’t want cold oatmeal. I’ll just, I’ll tell you that right now. I’m just not attracted to overnight oats in any shape or form. Ryan: Yeah. Maybe one day you’ll just at least taste it. Maggie: Maybe one day. Ryan: I eat it every day. Maggie: But you mix it with that blueberry protein. Ryan: Bro. Maggie: It’s a no. It’s a no for me. You making apples with blueberry protein. Ryan: The taste doesn’t even really come through. Would you just give it… Maggie: You also love that blueberry protein though, so we don’t agree on taste stuff. Ryan: But a little taste, just give it a little taste just to get the flavor. You don’t have to eat it. Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced Maggie: I’m keto right now so I just can’t make it happen. I’ll look on my calendar for next time I’ll have an opening. Anyways so… Ryan: What did you learn on TikTok this week? Maggie: I don’t know. I don’t remember stuff, okay? Ryan: Did you discover that Justin Bieber sang on TikTok? Maggie: Oh my gosh. I don’t even think it’s a Justin Bieber song, that’s the thing. Ryan: What’s the guy’s name again? Maggie: Laroi or something, L-A-R-O-I. Ryan: Yeah, because he sounds like… Maggie: It’s called Stay and it is so good. And if you guys just want to dump some serotonin and dopamine into your veins, I know we’re talking about – we talk about dopamine a good amount on this podcast. Put that song on repeat and get your ass into the gym because it’ll just – the endorphins, you won’t even know. And I don’t know if anyone can relate to this but I’m the type of person that once I find a song I like I will listen to it on repeat for days. Do you do that? You don’t do that. Ryan: I can confirm that you do that. Maggie: But you don’t. Ryan: No. Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced Maggie: No. And I’m like it doesn’t get any worse, it’s just as good. It doesn’t stop. It’s just I can’t get enough. It’s too good. And that’s what I did with this song. And so any – it’s kind of like the get it, get it, get it. Ryan: But you discovered it… Maggie: People send me that all the time. Ryan: Yeah. You discovered it on TikTok, right? Maggie: I did discover it on TikTok. Ryan: Interesting. Maggie: Because of funny people, guys. The people on TikTok are so funny. I feel so inadequate when I’m on TikTok because I just think people are so funny and so creative. Ryan: Well, you see all of the stuff that’s gone viral and that’s the top tier of humor. Maggie: I know but it’s so good and people seem – it’s like people on Reddit. Is it Reddit? No, is it Reddit? Ryan: The comments section on Reddit? Maggie: The comments section on Reddit where you’re just like, what? Ryan: And here’s the thing about that. Maggie: Well, how do people think? Sustaining Keto with Maggie Sterling 94 - Going Back to Basics Even When You’re Experienced Ryan: You upvote every comment and that’s why you see. Maggie: I know. I know you’re seeing the best of the best. But still, I’m like where are these Reddit people, where are they? And I don’t spend any time on Reddit. I just, any time I have looked for something or Ryan has sent me stuff I’m like that shit is so funny. Ryan: The comments section on TikTok is very similar to Reddit. And people will leave comments, you can tell it’s a funny competition of who can be the funniest in the comments section too. And it’s just so different from Instagram. Maggie: Yeah, it is.
