REPLAY: Sugar, Sugar, Sugar

Tue, 18 Jun 2024 12:10:20 GMT

On this episode, we are revisiting an older episode - Sugar, Sugar, Sugar. I wanted to recycle this episode not because I want to add to the villainization of sugar and proclaim more fear about how terrible sugar is for you, but because we feel like information is power. Especially with how many people have something to say about sugar, whether they are qualified to or not.

The more you know goes with our ongoing mantra of data, not drama. In this episode we cover the history of our evolving love affair with sugar, "healthier" sources of sugar, are they really better for us, and how does our body handle alternative sugars.

Everyone gets to make their own choices on what and how much they consume of things AND everyone should be privy to the information behind it, not just be sold the marketing department's version or the loudest persons on the internet view. Enjoy!

To Track or Not to Track

Tue, 04 Jun 2024 11:00:40 GMT

"You can't change what you don't measure." Is that true in diet and health? In this episode, Beth and Jessica discuss how important, or not, it is to track food or other measures of health when you have a goal. Can you lose weight if you don't track your food? Can you still eat intuitively and track food? Listen in and we discuss what the research says and what happens in real life.

Lean into Accountability

Tue, 21 May 2024 18:33:11 GMT

Why is it that in certain circumstances having accountability is seen as a positive, but when we need accountability for exercise and health some view it as a bad thing? Needing and having someone or something that holds us accountable for doing the exercise or eating healthfully is not a moral failing. We all need support, so lean into that accountability. Join us this week as Beth and Jessica discuss the importance of that support to help us reach our health goals.

Do you find you find yourself beating yourself up mentally or restricting food or over-exercising - basically punishing yourself - if you overate or didn't eat "healthy"?

Weight Loss vs. Fat Loss

Tue, 12 Mar 2024 12:30:38 GMT

When someone sees the number on the scale go down, they get happy - "YAY I've lost weight!" But hold up, when the scale moves it does not always mean you are losing fat. If you are going about dieting, in most of the methods out there, you are likely losing more than fat, and that's not a good thing. Be sure to listen to the know the difference between losing fat and losing weight. Knowing the difference determines long-term health and more.

Being Bored With Food

Mon, 25 Apr 2022 18:23:57 GMT

Is it ok to be bored with your food? Absolutely, in fact, it's perfectly fine because we don't need to be wowed or entertained by all of our meals. We have just gotten used to the perception that all food should be exciting in some capacity or we have things going on in our life that our main source of pleasure is from food. This is not an episode about saying that we need to eat steamed veggies and baked chicken breast more, we are just here to explore why the basics are resisted in our modern life.

Sugar, Sugar, Sugar

Tue, 09 Nov 2021 12:00:13 GMT

“To understand Western culture you have to understand sugar.” That statement from the beginning of an article about the history of sugar really spoke to us, because it encapsulates our seeming obsession with sugar: of having it, trying to avoid it, or trying to replace it with other sugar-like tastes.

This week we explore a bit about sugar.

Metabolically Healthy Regardless of Size

Tue, 05 Oct 2021 11:00:25 GMT

Many people have been taught that size equates to health and may believe that thinness is a sign of being healthy, which we know isn’t necessarily true. And many people have been taught to believe that fatness is a sign of being unhealthy, which is also not necessarily true. Then there’s everyone in between, right? There’s a huge spectrum of body sizes and shapes and we can’t know someone’s health from this alone.
