Weight and See: Life Unfiltered

We are back! In this episode we spend some time catching up: Megan's Yoga Retreat and Jennah's home brewed Kombucha era. At around the 15 minute mark we talk about our overall thoughts and use of ChatGPT, and we continue with how you might use it for your health and fitness goals!

If you have other cool ways you use ChatGPT or want us to dive deeper into it then shoot us an email at [email protected].

We are wrapping up our series, Weight Loss for Beginners, with what we are calling the "cherry on top'" where we break down our thoughts on supplements, what we take and why, and end with some discussion on what labs to consider when you go to your doctor. But like we have preached the entire time: don't over complicate it, stick to building a foundation of basics first for a long time, and consistency!

Thanks for joining us over the last several week and we hope we inspired you or gave you some nuggets of information that are helping you reach your current goals!

As we wrap up our signature series, we discuss the impact that sleep, stress and your support system has on your weight loss journey. We discuss our own ways to handle all three in our life as well as provide, what we think, are some hard truths that are important to uncover yourself--and our thoughts on how technology, specifically, could be holding you back! Find Megan @megsmidlife or email with any topics you would like us to discuss: [email protected]

Megan shares some insight to a recent self-reflection about coming the realization that her actions are not matching her current expectations for her goals. We highly encourage you to ask yourself the same questions if you feel like you are doing everything right or "good enough" but not seeing the results that you want! Follow her at @megsmidlife

In episode four of our signature series, Weight Loss for Beginners, we discuss the importance of moving your body! And not just to help you lose weight, but for your long-term health. The basics: increase those daily steps, people! Yet we share different perspectives on cardio and strength/hypertrophy training: the ideal protocol along with keeping it simple for those just getting back into their health journey.

Megan references Dr. Vonda Wright and Dr. Stacy Sims who she both heard speak on The Diary of a CEO podcast. We encourage you to give those episodes a listen as they reiterated everything Megan believes to be true as well as what she is working to implement in her daily and weekly routines for improved health and longevity.
