Shownotes
"Everything in moderation" is the most repeated and least useful piece of nutrition advice out there.
Not because moderation is wrong. Because most people have no idea what it looks like — and they're using it as a reason to not have a plan.
Real moderation can look restrictive at first. It requires structure before it works. And there are certain foods where moderation simply isn't available to you yet — and pretending otherwise is keeping you stuck.
In this episode, we will cover:
- What people think moderation is vs. what it is
- Why "everything in moderation" fails most women who are actively trying to lose fat
- Where moderation breaks down completely — specifically with ultra processed food
- What earning the right to moderate looks like and how you know when you're there
- What moderation looks like in practice once you've built the foundation
