Long Distance Call

Are We Eating Too Much?


Listen Later

The new food trend in Australia is fasting.

Eliza has returned home to find people skipping meals in an effort to reduce their overall calorie intake.

Initially she was shocked, wondering how people function without breakfast?

But she's also noticing that portion sizes in Australia are bigger than Indonesia and Lebanon.

Geraldine is adamant that this new eating trend is helping people keep weight off.

The conversation about food stretches to motherhood, to men & their battles with weight and the effort to have a healthy attitude towards food.

The women also discuss the Indonesian election and some new finds on Netflix.
