[00:00:21] Paula: [00:00:21] Yeah. I didn't realize he was starting that quickly. 

[00:00:39] Craig: [00:00:39] Yeah. So we've got, this is, this is, it's been awhile since we've done a podcast together. Just me and you, I'm looking forward to it. Togetherness, it's what everybody needs right now whilst we're on lockdown and in quarantine. okay. So I've got a particular topic I want to talk about today.

[00:00:54] Before that, I want to kind of just set it all up a little bit. So it's obvious the, when Corvid 19. broke out the countries are, went into a bit of disruption and and people became scared. People became a little bit worried and anxious about what their future would hold.

[00:01:14] And, and then to top it all off, we then got kind of locked up and our, our freedom, our ability to move around was then hindered. so we've got a load of people that are emotional for lots of different reasons, stuck at home. And I read a great quote yesterday, which is when you're sad or you're bored, don't make your, the fridge your happy place.

[00:01:38] And Paula, that's kind of what I want to talk about. First of all. So, can you, can you talk to me a little bit about, has there been a time when the fridge has been your happy place and, and what was the consequences of that? 

[00:01:49] Paula: [00:01:49] Actually, my fridge has been, my happy place for the last five days. For the last five days without, without a shadow of a doubt.

[00:01:57] And, last night I had to do some really strong kind of self-reflection because I've been, I've surrounded myself with really kind of positive things or listening to a lot of, meditations. And, and real. I used that actually. I'm not practising any of the things that I'm learning because as soon as I feel slightly worried, slightly anxious, slightly tense, the first thing I do is walk to our fridge and our fridge.

[00:02:22] At the moment it looks like Christmas. It's full. and our fridge is never full. Ever, ever, ever fall. well, I mean, we, we, we felt obliged him because we've got my, we've got two sons who are those, and then we've got a house guest staying with us as well, in isolation. So we felt obliged that we should sort of top it up and fill it open, make sure there's food in.

[00:24:52] Type two diabetes, insulin resistant. It just lists a load of stuff. Have you got a book, a recommended book that people can get? 

Paula: Yeah, dr Macola. what's the one with the big avocado on the front? What's it called for fuel. For fuel. Is that an amazing book? Amazing. Yeah, it's a great starting point for anyone to fat for fuel.

Listen to the episode for full details

[00:29:15] Just quickly, how much weight in tons is TEAM Bootcamp responsible for burning? 

Paula: I can't remember now.

Craig: It was 49 tons

Okay. So thanks again for listening and join us again in the next episode of the conquer food show.

Take care. So goodbye. 

Both: Bye bye.

Self-Control With All Things Snacky | The Quarantine Daily Podcast

Craig: [00:00:00] Welcome to the conquer food podcast with Craig and Paula Williams, where we share tips, tricks, and strategies from the coalface of the weight loss industry in the UK. We're going to help you to think, eat and move better. Ultimately, we're going to help you finally gain control.

[00:00:17] Welcome back to the Conquer Food podcast. No, that's wrong. It is a Quarantine Daily Podcast. Yeah, I've got a usual panel, Ric, Nicola, and Georgia. I'm still answering your questions. Got some really good questions today, which we're going to dive into. Before we start though, we're going to do a one minute or gratitude for today.

[00:00:35]Ric, I'm going to start with you. What's good or new? 

[00:00:38] Ricci: [00:00:38] What's good on you today? I am feeling very upbeat. I'm feeling like. Everything's going to be okay. That's a good thing. Anyway, we'll, we'll get through this and we'll be better people for it. 

[00:00:49] Craig: [00:00:49] Amazing. 

[00:00:51] Nicola: [00:00:51] Oh, me, my hair looks amazing today. That's my thing.

[00:00:56] It looks amazing. 

[00:00:58] Craig: [00:00:58] Good. 

[00:00:58] Georgia: [00:00:58] Mine is, I made avocado toast and I've got coffee in front of me. 

[00:01:02] Ricci: [00:01:02] Oh, 

[00:01:03] Craig: [00:01:03] wow. Little things make a big difference, right? So we're gonna, we're gonna do our little, little questions today. I've got a question stair from, from Emma. we all know really active in the group. So let's do this question.

[00:01:15] Some justice. I've lost it. 

[00:01:17] Georgia: [00:01:17] I love, and the videos. Have you seen the chicken? 

[00:01:19] Craig: [00:01:19] Chicken. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

[00:01:21] Georgia: [00:01:21] I need the chicken to be in every video she sends now. 

[00:01:25] Craig: [00:01:25] Right. So the first part, self-control with all things snacky, you know, I'm sure we go, sure. We little snack every now and again. We all love that little, that little bit of a devil on our shoulder.

[00:01:38] Georgia: [00:01:38] I think it's things that you already know. There's, you could take away the snacks so you don't have the option to snack if you really don't want to, or you have snacks ready that are a slightly better choice rather than, you know, as we spoke about again, where you go look in each different cupboard and you're like, what do I want?

[00:01:54] What will, if you have little things ready and prepared and the, you know, your goal, like those are your options. That's what you're going to choose rather than. The big bag of crisps in the cupboard or just don't buy the pink bag of Chris and then you don't have the option to eat it. I don't 

[00:24:26] Craig: Hey, I, I'm looking for some real inspiration from Nic for today's closing words

[00:25:07] Nicola: [00:25:07] mine is going to be from the last podcast. I'm going to release it back out. Rise and shine people. So not just get out of your bed, but rise. Get up in the morning, how he can make the world better today. How you can make yourself better.

[00:25:19] And the shine part is how are you going to expand that energy to other people? How are you going to share the goodness and the positivity with everyone around you? Rise and shine, 

[00:25:27] Craig: [00:25:27] right? Everyone give us a big rise and shine, and we're going to close this down. Three, two, one. RISE & SHINE
