Losing weight is quite a challenge for most of us especially with all these different methods that claim to be the "best" and "fastest" way to do so. In this episode, Dr. Taz is joined by Jenn Trepeck to talk about why there's no "one size fits all" when it comes to losing weight and how our behavior impacts whatever progress we achieve in our weight loss journey. Jenn has been described as a "force of nature" in the wellness space, has been recognized as one of Podcast Magazine’s 40 under 40, and was nominated for the 2022 International Women’s Podcast Award for Visionary Leadership. She is an Optimal Health Coach, Podcaster, and Business Consultant. Jenn grew up the skinny one in a family of dieters which was awesome until it went away. And so began her weight management saga. Ultimately though, Jenn learned the nutrition education we’re all supposed to know but no one ever taught us. This completely changed her life and allowed her to say she “kicked her food issues.” From then, Jenn set out on a mission to pay it forward and help people help themselves. After over a decade of working with clients, Jenn started Salad with a Side of Fries podcast. Based on science, yet lighthearted, Jenn talks about living life while still making ourselves and our health a priority.
