Welcome to Pep Talk & Pickleball. In today's solo episode I discuss why whole food nutrition reigns supreme.

Reducing your intake of ultra processed foods is such a game changer in my clients lives. Within a week or two clients are amazed at the increase in energy and vitality. They have mentioned how their joints feel better, their skin looks better, decreased bloating and even feel more satiated with their food intake.

If you feel like you are doing all the things when it comes to eating less and exercising more, it may be time to start looking more at the quality of your food, than the quantity!

Welcome back to another episode of Pep Talk & Pickleball.

In early April I posted an Instagram reel titled, "how to lose a size by Memorial Day" and it seemed to get a lot of buzz.

So I thought I would use this opportunity to go deeper into each of the eight things I recommended and why. You know, social media is all about short form videos to grab your attention, but I much prefer long form social media like this podcast so I can fully explain the how AND the why!

I am hosting an informational session on my FASTer Way to Fat Loss coaching program LIVE via Zoom on April 25 at 7pm CT/8pm ET and I would love to save you a spot! If you have ever felt frustrated that you are doing all the things, but you can't seem to shed the inches in your midsection, this would be a great information session to attend!
