To manage food waste, consider saving leftovers for future meals or only eating the fruits and vegetables that are left over. HRT can mitigate the effects of low estrogen on muscle gain and recovery, but other symptoms may still impact overall health and fitness. Coaches may reject clients who are not willing to make necessary changes or exhibit behaviors that are outside the scope of their expertise.

Having structure in meal planning can help with calorie tracking and reduce choice overwhelm. Focus on personal progress rather than comparing yourself to others. Change your self-perception by building evidence for yourself and meeting new people who see you differently.

Rapid weight loss is often due to water weight, not fat loss. It's important to understand the difference and not be swayed by quick results. When considering whether to make a change or walk away from a situation, it's important to assess whether your values are aligning and if there is a balance between different areas of your life.

  • Ep. 701 - What to do if you're tracking calories but not losing weight

    08/07/2024 Duration: 18min

    Apply for coaching here AI take Takeaways Exercise alone is rarely enough to lose fat; fat loss is dependent on energy balance. Basal metabolic rate and non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) have the biggest impact on energy expenditure. Calorie tracking is not accurate, even for professionals, and consistency is key. Using a meal plan can help create consistency and identify if adjustments are needed. Adopting a growth mindset and seeking support can lead to long-term success.

  • Ep. 700 - Comfort eating, getting back on track after a break & food pre occupation

    03/07/2024 Duration: 41min

    Apply for coaching here AI Takeaways Comfort eating is a learned behavior that involves using food as a mechanism to soothe uncomfortable emotions. While comfort eating is normal, it's important to manage it and find other ways to seek comfort. The impact of protein bars on results depends on individual circumstances, but it's generally better to have a balanced meal instead of relying on protein bars. After taking a break, it's helpful to have a plan and commit to it to get back on track. Thinking about food is common, but it's important to have other exciting activities and interests in life to reduce food preoccupation. A low resting heart rate can indicate a lower resting metabolic rate, but it's not necessarily a bad thing for fat loss. Factors like fitness level, excess weight, genetics, and medications can influence heart rate.

    02/07/2024 Duration: 39min

    Apply for coaching here AI Takeaways When traveling, it's possible to eat less and make healthier choices by being mindful and avoiding mindless snacking. Rushing weight loss goals can be counterproductive, and it's important to focus on sustainable changes and enjoy the process. Breaking unfavorable habits requires acceptance, self-reflection, and finding alternative activities or rituals to replace them. Bloating can have various causes, including PMS, stress, certain foods, or eating too quickly or too close to exercise. The preference for high-fat or high-carb diets is largely subjective, and what works best for one person may not work for another. Reducing starchy carbs and increasing protein and fiber intake can help with weight loss, but the overall calorie deficit is the key factor. Lower carb diets may reduce hunger and be beneficial for individuals with insulin resistance, but individual needs and preferences should be considered. Competing is a complex topic that will be discussed in more
