Reverse meal planning is meal planning that starts with what you have on hand as opposed to with recipe ideas. Some say it's harder to think of recipes based only on what you already have in the refrigerator, freezer and pantry, but we have tips and techniques that say otherwise. And once you get the hang of it, you reduce waste, save money, and feel like a badass.

What happens if you struggle with diet culture, but also need to be on a specific diet for health reasons unrelated to body weight (think: eating gluten-free to manage Celiac disease)? Registered dietitian and PCOS expert, Julie Duffy Dillon talks to us about ways that we can keep from adopting a diet culture mindset even when eating for health is far from intuitive and may require some restriction.

The Farmer's Dog was founded by two dog lovers who decided to reimagine pet food from the ground up. In the same way that we at DIJFY believe that parents should have access to the info they need to make the best decision for their families, The Farmer's Dog wants to empower all dog owners to make the best feeding decisions for their pets.

Here are a just few of the reasons why we love The Farmer's Dog and think that you will too:

• Real Food: The Farmer’s Dog is real, fresh, healthy food! Every meal is made with a variety of whole meat and veggies that are gently cooked in human-grade kitchens to preserve their nutritional value. 
• Personalized: Just tell The Farmer's Dog about your dog and they’ll deliver personalized, vet-developed recipes for as little as two dollars a day. (Seriously!)
• Pre-portioned: Meals arrive in pre-portioned, ready-to-serve packs, conveniently delivered on your schedule. This makes feeding time so easy that the kids can even help (you know how much we love that). It also makes it easy to maintain a healthy weight, which is a major health indicator for dogs.
• Convenient: Did we mention that personalized, vet-developed recipes show up at your doorstep on a schedule that you determine?! You honestly cannot beat the convenience, which is a major lifesaver for us busy parents.
• TASTE! We say it all the time for the humans in our families and the same goes for our dogs: at the end of the day, food needs to taste good! Ziggy, Miles and Daisy all concur that The Farmer's Dog is gobble worthy. There's never less than a licked clean bowl in either of our homes.

It’s honestly never been easier to invest in your dog’s health with fresh food. And because we're so excited for you to see that for yourself, The Farmer's Dog is giving all Didn't I Just Feed You listeners 50% off your first box, plus free shipping at thefarmersdog.com/DIJFY.
