August 14, 2021 How To Lose Weight Without Tracking Calories
In this episode, I talk about how to lose weight without having to count calories. Now, always keep in mind that although you don’t need to count calories, know that calories always do count towards your intake whether you’re aware of them or not. However, I do understand that there are people who aren’t able to count calories due to certain conditions or restraints. This can also help if you are trying to transition from counting calories to a more flexible “intuitive eating” approach. Hope this helps!

July 15, 2021 5 Unsexy Truths About Fat Loss
In this episode, I talk about my list of the ‘5 Unsexy Truths About Fat Loss.’ While I always preach that fat loss should be made as enjoyable and easy as possible, know that the journey itself is not easy at all. There are just simply going to parts of the journey that happen, aren’t the sexiest and most enjoyable, and something you’ll have to push yourself and stay consistent through in order to be successful. But that isn’t the say the journey isn’t worth it because what you’ll be able to accomplish whether that’s improving your confidence and/or feel healthier and better about yourself, what you achieve is going to be so much more rewarding the long term.
With all that said, have realistic expectations of what will happen on the journey, but don’t be afraid to push yourself out of the comfort zone to become better and achieve success.
