The Keto Happy Hour Podcast

In this week's episode we discuss social media and in particular, Heather's decision to take a social media vacation. It can be hard to tell when a tool that used to be helpful in our journeys has now become... not so helpful... How much of what we see in our social media feeds is real? We discuss the authentic, the deceptive, the dangers and the very real benefits of a social media community.

In this week's episode we play things a bit loose. We sat down to talk with no set topic. We had a great chit chat, a check in on how we're dong and a lot of tequila. Well... Emily, Emily had a lot of tequila. She also forgot to do her pre-recording mic check so she sounds like she’s in a tin can. Enjoy! 

In this week's episode we discuss the lies we tell ourselves. Sometimes we all have a little saboteur in our ear that tells us things that aren’t true. Sometimes we chose to ignore the little voices that ARE telling the truth. Join us as we discuss how we separate fact from fiction and how we distinguish disciplined thought patterns from obsessive ones.

In this week's episode we discuss tracking. What are the best strategies for monitoring your food intake without going mad. We talk about entering a season of prioritizing weight loss and how we avoid the dangers of over restricting and obsessing.

In this week's episode we discuss goal setting. More specifically, how to avoid setting yourself up for failure when you set new goals. 

In this week's episode we discuss our week long experiment with the carnivore diet. Heather goes Ultra and consumes only beef, salt, and water. Emily consumes animal products only. Join us as we discuss why this particular approach to keto works well for some and not so well for others. Pros, cons, we cover it all!

In this week's episode we try to answer some of the most frequently asked questions. I say try because, well, we do our best... :)

In this week's episode we discuss all of the crazy fad diets we've tried. To say there were a lot is an understatement. We had both tried almost everything under the sun! As always, our intent is to be helpful and encouraging and sometimes that means we talk about difficult subjects. There is discussion of some very disordered eating patterns in this episode. If you are in a place where hearing these topics discussed won't be helpful, we understand. :)

This episode is long! I almost trimmed it down but sometimes we have some interesting insights during our taping sessions. A little off topic, sometimes pretty tangential, always in the spirit of support and healing and community. We hope you enjoy!

In this episode of The Keto Happy Hour Podcast we discuss intermittent fasting and specifically, how to fail spectacularly at intermittent fasting! Heather is a champ, Emily is not. What's the point? Why would anyone chose to not eat? Well, there are some very good reasons to give it a go and we discuss a few. Join us!
