Approaching your fitness goals with a healthy mindset around food and nutrition is key. Nikki sheds light on common mistakes that lead to binging and why you should never underestimate your ability to dial in your nutrition! 

In this podcast episode, Nikki shares:

• Over-restriction of food, calories and carbs can lead to diminished discipline and willpower
• The impact of undereating protein and nutrients our bodies need
• How fasting and skipping meals can drop your blood sugar and stress the body
• Why it’s important to address hormones, digestion and digestive issues 

Memorable Quotes:

• “You can challenge yourself, you can push yourself, but we want to make sure we're also not damaging our metabolism through that process.”
• “You'll get to a point where you will be hungry and you will have cravings and yes, your willpower and discipline will diminish. Because your body's sole job is survival. It is going to send you specific signals to get you to eat something.”
• “I lost so many years being frustrated and pissed off at myself thinking I have no discipline and have no willpower, feeling like a failure when all I needed to do was actually eat more and nourish my body better.”
