This week on our third episode of the summer series, we tackle family nutrition. Whose job is it to make your family healthy? Is it only one person's job? That person, mom or dad, is probably feeling a lot of stress. So much stress they’ve even had a meltdown when someone at the table announced they could not eat their dinner because there was a light dusting of parmesan cheese on it. Just me? Either way, buckle up for an episode that we thought would be short, but ended up being long because there is a lot to talk about on this topic! We discuss a Self Magazine article entitled “How the MAHA Movement Threatens to Set Women Back Decades,” the MAHA report itself, and strategies for how to balance the responsibility of feeding a family.

Welcome to the second episode in our summer series. Today we are tackling dressings and sauces. Moo and I begin with a conversation on seed oils and then we move into how to make your dressings and sauces healthier if you want to! Or, if you want to eat your seed oil dressings, that’s cool too! But let’s get the right information and make the decision that’s best for us! That’s the FitSister way!

Welcome to our first episode in what we are calling “the summer series.” On each episode we are covering a single topic and today, we are revisiting pasta salad. Moo reports out on an NYT pasta salad recipe she piloted this week, Nat feels the need to defend the use of the noodle (and not some chickpea-replacement), and we end up connecting all of this to a William Wordsworth poem in the end. Let me tell you, this is content you can’t find anywhere else! We love you, listeners! Happy summer!

We begin episode 38 with yet another involving me, the donut, overeating chips (Patio Chips specifically) even though I am actually eating more vegetables. So while I am improving on one goal, I am still giving in to major chip cravings. Have no fear, the Fit Sister is here to help. Then, Moo gives us her very strong opinion on a recent episode of Science Versus. Finally, we end with a rousing debate on pasta salad. I bet you can guess who is “pro pasta salad.” Thanks for listening!

Listeners! Welcome to Episode 37. First and foremost, we check in regarding my vegetable goals and there are indeed some wins and losses. Let’s be real, this isn’t easy. Then we transition into a conversation about Gabby Reece and her recent interview on the podcast Ageist. As a 55 year old woman, Reece’s interview got us thinking about the importance of authenticity as we age. That’s kind of tricky when the world is telling us the opposite. It is so refreshing to see women over 40 in the public space having honest conversations about the phases of life that are ahead of us.

What do I mean by normal person? Well, unlike my sister, I need some help with the whole foods. More specifically, I have recently realized I need more fruits and veggies in my daily life. In this episode, Moo and I talk about real roadblocks to eating more vegetables (all that chopping!) and real solutions to embracing healthy, whole food eating habits. Also are carrots and mangoes “full of sugar”? Are there certain fruits and veggies we should avoid? (I sincerely hope she says no).

Are you working late, attending events for work and school and looking at a totally booked Google calendar? Are you finding it impossible to manage all the Sign Up Genius emails and figure out what to make for dinner? Does the idea of eating healthy and building in time for fitness sound totally insane to you right now? Then this episode is for you. It is May, people. This is not a drill. Your cars better be packed, your meals better be planned or it will take you down. Well guess what? It took me down. In this episode Moo and I talk about what happens when you don’t meet a goal and even more importantly, how to build practices and habits that don’t fall apart when things get crazy. And things are crazy!

What is up, fit sisters! Welcome to episode 34. On today’s episode we discuss Moo’s introverted approach to her birthday. Currently, she has shut down all of her friends’ attempts to celebrate her b-day. We unpack the philosophical implications of aging and how odd it can feel to “celebrate ourselves.” Then we discuss a recent NYT article about the “keys to longevity.” Wait, do we want longevity? Or do we want the summer bod? Is it impossible to have both? Listen along and then tell us how you feel!

Welcome back, listeners! We begin today’s episode with a Nat-life-update. In our last episode I talked about changing my fitness routine to focus more on daily movement and short weight-lifting sessions instead of a dedicated “workout. ” In this episode I tell Moo how it's all going. Then, we move to a listener email about GLP-1s. First, I discuss how I love food, how I have always loved food and it is nice to hear how much other people think about food as much as I do. Then, Moo gets into food relationships and the role of GLP-1 medications in weight management. Finally, we end with the return of skinny culture (but did it ever officially leave?) and how it’s all about understanding our own health and wellness journeys and trying our very best to block out these ridiculous body standards. Thanks for listening!

Welcome to this special episode of The FitSister Podcast! Moo was in for the weekend so did all the things a podcasting sister duo could do together. 1. Coffee. 2. Blow outs. 3. Make-up. 4. A recording session in an official podcasting studio. JOIN US for our first in-studio recording. We debrief on our make-up sessions (I tried fake lashes for the first time) and then we dive into a question that both Nat and a listener have-- how can we increase daily movement if our days consist of sitting at work, sitting at practices and driving to work and practice?
