Join Turn Up The Dial On Your Health & Nutrition without messing up your relationship with food.

In this episode, I dive into why obsessing over getting enough protein at every meal is why you’re still overeating. While protein does keep you full longer, it doesn’t necessarily lead to satisfaction. You might find yourself feeling full but not satisfied, and then reaching for more food, leading to that “too full” feeling. I talk about how this obsession with hitting a certain protein goal—like 1g per lb of body weight—can become a mental burden, pulling you away from the enjoyment of your meals. Let go of the protein calculations and trust that you're getting enough, so you can focus on what truly satisfies you. When you prioritize satisfaction over fullness and stop obsessing over numbers, you’ll naturally stop overeating and feel more balanced.
