Episode 2598 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino why NSNG® goes way beyond diet culture, why leading by example is best, weighted vests, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/01/beyond-diet-culture-episode-2598 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE -   Beyond Diet Culture Vinnie and Anna share their recent adventure in Washington, DC. (2:00) Vinnie shares a recent Instagram post and a recipe idea. (14:00) NSNG compliance--what does that even mean? (18:00) NSNG® is not to be treated as some fad and is not intended to be a part of “diet culture.” It’s meant to be a healthier way of eating, a lifestyle. Anna wants to hear from the X crowd about how they are holding up and what kind of kickback they get from others. (26:00) Do not try to convince others, just lead by example. People push back when they aren’t ready for a change. Anna was relieved to hear she didn’t need to eat rice cakes. Anna thought she was getting punked. (39:00) Social media, podcasts, and follower engagement do not always overlap. She received various comments on her Instagram about tossing a jar of Rao’s down the drain. Are weighted vests a good thing? Vinnie gives a breakdown. (52:00) Start with 10 lbs, get used to it, then work your way up. Weighted vests help somewhat on a flat surface; however, the real benefits happen when going uphill. (56:00) Don’t forget you can invest in Anna’s Eat Happy Kitchen through StartEngine.
