It's 178 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 1: also helping to eat to sleep better and feel better, 179 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: move better, think better, all that kind of stuff. 180 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 3: That's awesome. All right, Well, I'm so excited for you 181 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 3: and I can't wait. 182 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 2: Well, we'll definitely have you back around pub around pubd it. 183 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: I get to cook with you when doing it. 184 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: Yes, let's talk about what we're talking about today. Six 185 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 2: minutes into recording me, we should get there today. We 186 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 2: are talking about small things you can do in the 187 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: kitchen to be healthier this year or whenever you may 188 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: be listening to this. We are at the top of 189 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: twenty twenty three right now, but alas, it is never 190 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 2: the wrong time to maybe do an audit about some 191 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: of the things that you have going on in your 192 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 2: regular routine and if you're interested in doing so, how 193 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: you can clean it up a little bit, right. 194 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, mate, Honestly, it's funny we get to this point 195 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: a year and we feel very motivated. We're very motivated 196 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: to make the adjustments to our health that will optimize us. 197 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 1: But sometimes it's, like we discussed this off the podcast, 198 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: I think people try and make two big chance, two 199 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: bigger changes. People try to make two bigger changes, and 200 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, just try to do baby steps, make gradual 201 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: and sustainable straight up. But you know, there's a number 202 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: of things you can do. I would suggest is firstly, 203 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 1: be realistic about what you want to achieve. We always 204 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: say that, but actually be realistic. And that doesn't have 205 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: to be around you know, your personal health. It could 206 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: be like how Caen you want to cook, how Caen 207 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: you want to eat from a certain restaurant that you 208 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: believe in, or whatever it is. But I think actionable 209 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: things you can do kitchen. It is actually firstly doing 210 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: an audit audit like your kitchen audit your pantry. What 211 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: do you have still in there that it's been there 212 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: for every long time. You're probably never going to touch, 213 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: but it's still there to make you think about maybe 214 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: having this not good for you. So we always talk 215 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: about avoiding the refined sugars, avoiding the things that are 216 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: going to be, you know, in some way catastrophic to 217 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 1: our diabetic health or metabolic syndrome, all those kind of things. 218 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: But I think straight off the bat, avoiding as much 219 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: refined sugar is the most simple thing that we can 220 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: do to our health. Right, we talk about alcohol, Are 221 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: you gonna drink? Are you doing I'm doing? 222 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 2: I feel as though I've seen it on TikTok. The 223 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: trend is calling it damp January. Oh I'm doing dry 224 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 2: is January. But I'm really trying to do less drinking 225 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 2: in general. So for me, my two rules right now 226 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: in January, and I don't think I'll uphold this in February, 227 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 2: but my two rules were you can drink on Saturdays 228 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: and you can drink if you go on. 229 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: A dep That are really good rules. 230 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 2: So like the other day, that well, I did go 231 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,199 Speaker 2: If my mom is listening to this, I know she's 232 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 2: going to talk to me about this. I did go 233 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 2: on a date, and proud of me, I actually went 234 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: on a date and I didn't drink. 235 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 3: I had a mark Tale. 236 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: But then when I went to go see the movie, 237 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: I had a drink because it was like a night 238 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 2: to celebrate. 239 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: Sure. 240 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 3: So I think that in. 241 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 2: General, on the theme of like dried January, my goal 242 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,359 Speaker 2: is just to be a little bit more intentional. 243 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: No, I think it's intentional. Drinking is so important. The 244 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: topic last year we came across is people were trying 245 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 1: to pick too many times a year to go on 246 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: a break and it was like this hot, cold kind 247 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: of thing. It's worse than trying to actually date someone 248 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 1: who's kind of interested in you and they're not interested 249 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: in you and you just didn't know what's going on. 250 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: But effectively, if you can be intentional and pick a 251 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: thing that sustainable around what you were trying to achieve, 252 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: it's more likely to be a successful habit than you 253 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: need to create for the rest of your life. Right, right, So, like, 254 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: you know, you picking those two rules. I think that's 255 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: actually quite realistic. It's also enjoyable because you know, you know, 256 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: not that you need another sh'us to get another drink 257 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: on just to go on a date. That'd be pretty 258 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: funny actually, like, oh, I'm gonna go on date you 259 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: so I can drink. But like you know, I think 260 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: it's a really really stick option. You're not gonna have 261 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: too many days realistically during the week, and you're still 262 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: going to hit something. It's more exciting for you. And 263 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure you probably find times that you don't want 264 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: to actually drink, even in those events that you do 265 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 1: have the opportunity to do. 266 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: So. I went to a work dinner last night and 267 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 2: I wasn't interested in drinking at all. And I that's 268 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 2: one of those situations where it's so easy to sit 269 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: there and have like four or five drinks just because 270 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: someone is constantly walking up to you and asking you 271 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: if you want more. And I was just so grateful 272 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 2: that I didn't because I woke up this morning, I 273 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 2: felt great, and I just have so much on my 274 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 2: to do list that I feel more prepared today than 275 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: if I just mindlessly sat there and drank six glasses 276 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: of wine last night. 277 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: One hundred percent. So I think to that point, it's like, 278 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: let's be more intentional about the drinking, like if we're 279 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: going to be doing it when you want to do it. 280 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: And I'm not going to say high boundaries for every 281 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: single person now rules, but I think it's just important 282 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: for you to be really stick about it. 283 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and to double click on what we started talking 284 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 2: about and kind of breezed by. You mentioned at the 285 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: top of this doing a cabinet audit or a pantry audit. 286 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: And I love the idea of cleaning out the cabinet 287 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 2: for two reasons. One, it's good to know what. 288 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 3: You're already holding on to. 289 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 2: Sometimes we just hold on to stuff because it's like, oh, 290 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 2: I feel like I should have this in the house, right, 291 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: But if you're not using it, then lose it. Like 292 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: if you're not using it, lose it. And then beyond that, 293 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: the therapeutic nature of cleaning out a pantry is top 294 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: notch for me, top notch. But I would love for 295 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 2: you to talk a little bit about what some of 296 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: the staples can be or should be when it comes 297 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: to things that we should be keeping in our pantry. 298 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent. And just FYI, team, you know, 299 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: Abida has got a really great design kitchen, so she 300 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: knows what she's talking about when it comes through cleanliness, 301 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: particularly organization. Look, I would say that the main things 302 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: I would look for is people say fresh is best. 303 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: And obviously we're always going to have the nutritional value 304 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: of fresh ingredients, you know, that's always getting be viable 305 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 1: for us. But things in pantries like canned beans, like 306 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: beans are things that are timeless to a degree, but 307 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: timeless but also uphold so much. Fiber beans of protein 308 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: like chickpeas and lentils and beans are things that I 309 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: think we should buy, you know, in the event that 310 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: we have some sort of other hurricane that comes by 311 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: and they will look after it for a very long time. 312 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: Spices always right. Admittedly, if you're looking after these spices, 313 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: make sure the lids are kept on, keep your olive 314 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: oils and obviously your wine as well out of sunlight. 315 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: But in terms of your major things that we can 316 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: hold onto with things that don't have moisture within them, right, 317 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: or are canned. If you have canned milk, particularly coconut milk, 318 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: you are fine canned. Like you know, I've seen condensed 319 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: milk still, and hey, I'm a sucker for condensed milk 320 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: when I'm making like a cheap lemon meringue pie, haven't 321 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: done a couple of years, probably going to do it 322 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: this weekend right now. But ultimately you're looking at things 323 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: that are not full of massive amount of preservatives that 324 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: you can hold onto in your cabinet, right spices, beans, 325 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: et cetera. When it comes to fresh ingredients, they shouldn't 326 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: sticking around anyway. But I find I know this is bad. 327 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: I've been to friends, and now that I'm doing this 328 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: kitchen series, I see people like their kitchens. They've got 329 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: mold on the inside of certain things. They haven't even 330 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: realized because they just don't bury themselves into certain areas 331 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: of their kitchens and their pantries. And obviously we don't 332 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: have mold can be I think we looked last year 333 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: at a couple of restaurants when they were saying that 334 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people who lived who worked at the 335 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 1: restaurants never actually got home to cook, and they found 336 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: that most of the stuff they had was because they 337 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: had mold and had built out. So it's actually something 338 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 1: now that I think about it, everyone should be very 339 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: conscious of if you're not doing an order of your 340 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: pantry for its food. You should also be doing an 341 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: order for your pantry for any potential moisture things that 342 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 1: be causing half half bacteria as well in general. 343 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: So I feel like that's like all the stuff that 344 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: lives in typically speaking, the door of your fridge. It's 345 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 2: like pickled holopenos or I mean, pickles don't last that 346 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: long in my fridge. But like pickles, or if you 347 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: keep catching up mustard, certain dressings like or other things 348 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: that you just may not use often and buy once 349 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 2: every six months, some of that stuff you should not 350 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: be holding onto for six months. 351 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think of a dinner party you had during Christmas, right, 352 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: and in the dinner party you may have had a 353 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: dip or like some sort of sauce, And now you 354 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: don't have that dinner party because you're not going through 355 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: that same festive season and still in your fridge, and 356 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: you got to question, am I ever going to use 357 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: that again? Or I'm just gonna have friends around? Like, 358 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: You've got to think about some of the stuff that 359 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: you're having. It's also taking up real estate in your space. 360 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: You could be holding other stuff you just don't creatively 361 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: think about. And I know all of us are doing this. 362 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: What's that one thing you still have in your fridge 363 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 1: that you open the door to three times a day 364 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: at least, and you know it's there, but you're never 365 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: gonna use it because you show in the recipe one time. 366 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: Didn't like the recipe for a reason. It's like it 367 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: just as you said, if you're not using it, lose it. 368 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 3: If you're not using it, lose it. 369 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 2: And also, I like what you said about the They're 370 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 2: like that one item is taking up space for something 371 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 2: else that can be really great for you. So we 372 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 2: talked about some of the pantry steeples when it comes 373 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: to shopping for things that we're keeping in the fridge 374 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 2: here fresh produce. 375 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 3: What are some of your steeples? 376 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 1: Some of your go tosh Like it's weird the battle 377 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: between fridge versus Oh, this should be a game. This 378 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 1: should like fridge versus pantry? Ready, yeah, first it comes 379 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: to your mind, peanut, butter, what do you mean, like 380 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: you're keeping your fridge, you keeping your pantry? 381 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 3: Oh I keep that on my pantry? 382 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: Cool? 383 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 3: Do you keep that on your fridge? 384 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: I do all my girlfriend and I've told her thousands 385 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: of times. Let's keep the peanut butter in the fridge 386 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 1: in the pantry, but she just continues to put it back. 387 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 3: Do you have the peanut butter that you need to 388 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 3: stir to use? 389 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: Give me the one from TJ's Yeah, I love that one, 390 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: But you go, we shove the whole foods a lot 391 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: of times, so we just get the fresh ready made 392 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: that one as well, which is like kind of fine 393 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: and satisfied. Also, would peanuts be going from like peanuts 394 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: into a peanut butter. 395 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 3: Now I'm like creaving peanut butter. Okay? Wait, what else 396 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 3: is on the fridge. 397 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: Of pantry with sweet potatoes on the counter? Yeah? Exactly, Okay, nice, 398 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: trust me, I've seen some some Yeah again, you know 399 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: I've gone through some kitchen. 400 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 2: That's like onions as well. Onions are supposed to stay 401 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: on the counter, not in the fridge. 402 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: Correct. 403 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 3: What else? Eggs? People? This is controversial mine staying the fridge? 404 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: Okay? How often do you go through them? 405 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 3: Like within the week usually? 406 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: Yeah? What? Well, it depends, like see the idea behind eggs. 407 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 1: If you keep them at room temperature and you're working 408 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: with them so like a whisk or like you're trying 409 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 1: to create volume out of them, maybe an omelet you 410 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: get more volume based in the fact they're at room temperature. 411 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: The alternaive kabe you bring them out twenty intes before 412 00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 1: you use them. But you know they can they can, 413 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: they can hold for a while. Don't have to be 414 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: at you know, necessarily fridge temperature. 415 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 3: Where's your butter. 416 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: It's in the fridge. 417 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: Mine's in the fridge too. That just it's dairy. How 418 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 2: are you gonna keep on the counter. I don't get it. 419 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, here's what's interesting. Now you can if people are like, well, 420 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: it's going to be really hard to spread, get yourself 421 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: for greater, great your butter, and it makes it soft, 422 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 1: and then it's like it's really movable, right, it's nice 423 00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 1: and soft and you can. Yeah. 424 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 2: It's like I'm just laughing because we're like on minute 425 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: twenty here and we're like kind of on topic, but 426 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 2: mostly off tackt's topic. 427 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: It's a fun game, fridge or pantry. 428 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: It's a pantry flight game. But let's go back. We're 429 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: talking healthy small tweaks, things you can do to be healthier. 430 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 2: So we talked about making sure that you've got some 431 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 2: great steeples in your pantry, and we were about to 432 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 2: talk about the steeples that should be in your fridge. 433 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 3: So what steeple should be in your fridge. 434 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say it's gonna be food. I'm 435 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: going to say it's going to be a very organized, 436 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: for lack of a better word, TopWare container set. And 437 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: the reason for this, it's more motivating to store food 438 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: if everything's in a neat, tidy fashion. I love that, 439 00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So finding like you open 440 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: up a fridge and everything's everywhere because you've got like 441 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: you know, odds and end come toup aware. I'm not 442 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,959 Speaker 1: saying chuck out your TopWare if if you are using it, 443 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: but if you've got a really nice organized set, it 444 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: makes you feel makes you feel cleaner, tidier. That's you know. 445 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. If you ever a fridge and 446 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: see it messy, you're generally going to see that the 447 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: rest of their place is gonna be messy too. It's interesting. Yeah, 448 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: got to get home and clean up my fridge. But yeah, 449 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: so I think for sure, first and foremost top way containers. 450 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: In terms of actual ingredients, you should always have the 451 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 1: regular stuff. And I say regular, but freezer space I 452 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 1: think is actually more important. Right now than fridge cheaper, 453 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: you know, holds longer. Getting frozen broccoli, getting frozen stir 454 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: five veggies, putting them in the freezer is honestly one 455 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: of the best things we're going on right now. With 456 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: inflation going on, everyone's saying the cost of food, which 457 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: it is, is going up. I would suggest people go 458 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: and get some frozen veg so in the event they 459 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: do get fresh and they run out, they don't have 460 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 1: to run down the store quickly. They've also got something 461 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 1: at last. Even if you open the packet, you can 462 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: still reuse it. So when it comes to the fridge itself, 463 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: I think the most important thing is to have your 464 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: actual assortment of fruit veg and then if you do 465 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: have your proteins, avoid the dairy meats because as good 466 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: as we continue to explore, it just increasing nitrates and 467 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: things like that. So actual whole food proteins without hormones 468 00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Okay, and make sure that they're 469 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: on the bottom shelf. 470 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 3: Oh that's an interesting POV. What's the deal? 471 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: So if you put something on, if you have a 472 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,640 Speaker 1: protein and it's on the top shelf and it's raw, 473 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: there has still have a very small chance but a 474 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: chance of it dripping down and affecting everything else underneath you, 475 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 1: Whereas if you put it on the bottom shelf and 476 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: it leaks, it's not a problem because it's just not 477 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: gonna stain anything else but the protein itself. 478 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 2: Taking a break from today's episode to talk to you 479 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 2: about my sponsors. 480 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 3: First up. 481 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 2: Element Element is a delicious electrote drink mix with everything 482 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 2: you need and nothing you don't.

Okay, so fruits, veggies, really good proteins. 521 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: When it comes to now execution, what else can we 522 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 2: talk about when it comes to how we can edge 523 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 2: up on the health side here? So maybe we could 524 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 2: talk about portion sizes question mark? 525 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so portion size control. I always leave 526 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: by a rule that one cup of how to put 527 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: this so you your plate itself should be a combination 528 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: of firstly, lots of color we've talked about before, a 529 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 1: source of starch or carbohydrates, so it can be soup, potato, rice, 530 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: whatever it is. And your protein whatever protein to your liking, 531 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: whether it be tofu, which we can go through in 532 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: sult amazing benefits of chicken fish, whatever it is. Now 533 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: we're not doing any revolutionary here talking about this, but 534 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: the biggest thing you would probably regulate would be the 535 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: carbohydrate or the protein source. The color should stay the same, right, 536 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: So if you're looking to maintain, you know, I'm a 537 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: one eighty right now, I'm looking to maintain I'm probably 538 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 1: gonna have more than one and a half one bit 539 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: more than one cup of starch, and I'm looking to 540 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 1: drop weight, I'm probably looking around three quarters to a 541 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,880 Speaker 1: half cup of starch, right, my protein will relatively stay 542 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: the same. So if you're somebody's trying to put on 543 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: weight and you probably around the average person's like two 544 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: thirds a cup of starch, you would increase that maybe 545 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: to one cup. And if you're someone who's looking to 546 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: drop weight, you're looking to maybe one third of a cup, 547 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: So you can vary based on that. You veg should 548 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: always stay the same, right, because that supports all the 549 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: things that your starch requires, and then the protein that 550 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 1: will regulate based on what your goals are. If you're 551 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: looking to put on a lot of weight mass wise, 552 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: you know, it's one point to put inspective. The actual 553 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: formula for increasing lean muscle mass at ten percent over 554 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: a six week period of time. If you're working in 555 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: pounds is zero point seven times your body weight, and 556 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: that resulting number is the amount of protein in grams 557 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: you'd have daily. If you're working in kilograms, it is 558 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: one point six times your body weight, and that resulting 559 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: number is the amount of grams of protein per day. 560 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 1: All right, So they're the kind of things to think about. 561 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: Hold into that formula. Make sure you regulate your starch, 562 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: keep your greens the same. 563 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 2: Something that you said there that I want to highlight 564 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 2: is that the greens or the veg helps you execute 565 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 2: for whatever the starch needs. 566 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 3: Can you expand on that? 567 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I want to I want to flow this. 568 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: Like if you think about your say your macro nutrients, 569 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: which is your proteins, your fats, and your carbs, as say, 570 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: the building blocks of a Sayer stadium. In order for 571 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: that stadium to be built, we need all the materials 572 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 1: to be shipped there. So if you are say cement 573 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: reflecting as protein, the cement has to get onto a 574 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: truck and then has to drive down a highway. It 575 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: has to then pass all the traffic lights. It has 576 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: to be driven there by a driver, gets to the stadium, 577 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 1: be tipped off the truck, someone shovels to a location, 578 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 1: and then eventually it is molded into the shape of 579 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 1: the structure of the stadium. So, if protein is cement, 580 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: there are all those different elements and parameters in order 581 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: for that protein to get to its position to be built. 582 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: Protein is just a protein. Protein, It's just a building block. 583 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: But in order for it to get to its job, 584 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: it has to have all these micronutrients in order to 585 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: support it. So that's where all these micronutrients come in. 586 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter how much protein you have if you 587 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: don't have the micronutriants to support them. Otherwise they're just 588 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: going to be stagnant. I'm not going to do anything. 589 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: So in order to support the needs of your carbohydrates, 590 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,159 Speaker 1: your fats, and your protein to do their job, you 591 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: need your assortment, vitamin B, you need all your different complexes, 592 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: You need all the micronutrients in order for them to 593 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: do their job. 594 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 2: I'm like sitting here remembering that I have half a 595 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 2: bottle of athletic Greens I still have to drink. 596 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: Is that daily? 597 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 2: No, I drank the whole bottle usually in the morning, 598 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: but I was on the rush this morning and I 599 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 2: was already holding a cup of coffee, so I told 600 00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 2: myself that I would reshake up the bottle when I 601 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 2: got home.

You lose weight? Initially because you know, 626 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: carbs hold water, So like if you remove carbs from 627 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: your you know your system, you're going to lose all 628 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: the water. That goes with them as well. So you 629 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: lose all those water weight, great, but then all of 630 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: a sudden you're weak, you're tired, and then when you 631 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: start to put those cars back into the system, you 632 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: swell back up again. So it's not really a sustainable thing. 633 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: And so you know, we hear a lot about these 634 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: keto diets, these carnivore diets, and end of the day 635 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: you see a lot of like, you know, there's people 636 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: out there I've had to reintroduce fiber to their diet 637 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: before claiming they were having like you know, issues because 638 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 1: they were saying, oh, you should be having just protein 639 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: and then realize I'm just going to re introduce fruit. 640 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: Oh I'm just going to re introduce some veggies that 641 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: they realize that fiber is what is so crucial and 642 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: critical to digestion, brain health, all this kind of stuff. So, yes, 643 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: these fad diets. Look, if you're trying to lose weight, 644 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: you try I always wait for now, you trying to 645 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: always wait for the rest of your life. I'm just 646 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: putting out there most people are looking at option B. 647 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: If that's the case, fine, a sustainable system that is 648 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: for you, And no matter what people say, the most 649 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: across the broad topic of diets in general. The more 650 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: plants you have, whether you're plant based or not, the 651 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: more supportive you after your overall health, which in turn 652 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: will support whatever it is you're looking to do, which 653 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: is if it is weight loss or weight gain, or 654 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: maintain energy balance, whatever it is. So I think it's 655 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: so important we avoid these bad diets. Definitely have like 656 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: a six week goal and look away at hitting that, 657 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: but not in the way it's unsustainable for your overall future, right, And. 658 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: I love setting goals that are really just thinking about 659 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 2: your overall health and well being in mind, nothing related 660 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 2: necessarily to the scale, but more so thinking about what 661 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 2: you can be. 662 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 3: Doing to better take care of you. 663 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 2: So we've highlighted a few times here the benefit of 664 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 2: really making sure that you have colors on your plate, 665 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 2: which is a really fun exercise honestly, when it comes 666 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 2: to mixing things up, and I think I think that 667 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 2: that's one of the things that we spoke about before 668 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 2: you came in here today, was that mixing things up 669 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 2: can actually be a really great tip when it comes 670 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: to taking care of your overall health. 671 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 1: One hundred per cent stimuli you think about when you 672 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: go to the gym. If you do the same gym 673 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: routine over and over again, you it's a position where 674 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: it's like one you're not being challenged mentally physically, you're 675 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: not getting that same feeling of the rush that you 676 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: get from doing a new challenge, and you kind of 677 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: get bored and fizzle out. The same thing happens to food. 678 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: So if you think about when you go if you 679 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: went to the same restaurant, no matter how good it is, 680 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 1: every single night, you're going to get to the point 681 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: like I need to go somewhere else. Same thing for 682 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: food in general. Give your body the stimulant it needs. 683 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: Keep guessing and like you'll find yourself create this broader 684 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: spectrum of energy. Your sleep will be better because you're 685 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,479 Speaker 1: having a variety of things. And that's another factor as 686 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 1: goes Like heading into twenty twenty three, I saw a 687 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: lot of people hitting me up around like goal setting, 688 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: like why don't you think about sleep? Like how often 689 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: are people having these wearable technologies now? And you can 690 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: just totally factor in, Okay, make sure I'm getting one 691 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: and a half to two and a half hours of 692 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: rem sleep at night. Maybe you can it's measurable now, 693 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: so you can find a way of doing that any broadway, 694 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: and veggie is a great way of doing it. Eating 695 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 1: drinking a little bit less is definitely gonna help as well. 696 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's very true. That's very true. 697 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: So mixing up your plate a really great tip to 698 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 2: stay a little bit healthier than New Year. 699 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: And also picking you recipes as well online. 700 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 2: That's definitely something that's fun, but that can also make 701 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 2: it a little difficult in terms of mixing things up, 702 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: only because I'm a single woman and I will make 703 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: a recipe and then I'll have that recipe to eat 704 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 2: over like two or three ds, and then by the 705 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 2: third day I don't even want to eat it anyway. 706 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 2: So it's just that actually is like a sticking point 707 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 2: for me. 708 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: That's a really good point. People go, oh yeah, make 709 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: things in batches. I'm like, well, if you are, like 710 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: you know, an individual where you're not looking out to 711 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 1: e and butt yourself and you have the same thing 712 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: like four days in a row, like spaghetti ballon aise, 713 00:32:57,840 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: I'll have four days in a row, no problem, no problem. 714 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: Like there's some things I totally get myself. I think 715 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: a measurable thing here is be realistic about how being 716 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: the size of the recipe can be as well. So 717 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: it's like, don't feel as if you have to make 718 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: the sizeable thing where it's like serves four. Okay, well 719 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: maybe harve it. But you know, I think there's another 720 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: way is like, have a think about the ingredients you're 721 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: bringing in and can you get them across a number 722 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: of different dishes. Can you prep them in a way 723 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: that you can to prep them tomorrow night for another 724 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: dish that will still get you excited? So I definitely 725 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 1: level you and that I think it's it's you know, 726 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: that would put me off, But I still think there's 727 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: ways you can go around it to still get that versatility, 728 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: minimize time, yeah, and you know, make sure you're getting 729 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: that tasty either you want. 730 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's smart being able to prep one thing and 731 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 2: use it in multiple dishes. And that's where the planning 732 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 2: comes in, which I think is probably one of the 733 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: last things we'll talk about today, the idea of planning 734 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 2: for your health, thinking ahead, even if it takes you 735 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: ten or fifteen twenty minutes on a Sunday, that planning 736 00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: is truly going to be the thing that helps you 737 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 2: stay ahead when the week gets. I feel as though 738 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 2: I ran a marathon this week. Spoiler alert, I have 739 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 2: not run a marathon this week. I haven't run it all. 740 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 2: My foot is still on the ups. But I had 741 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 2: no time to breathe. Still, with no time to breathe. 742 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 2: When I went to like go grab lunch before, I 743 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 2: had an amazing salad. And that's because I had everything 744 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 2: in the fridge ready to go, because I thought ahead 745 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: of time, knowing this whole week was going to be crazy. 746 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 2: So this whole week, I have loved the salad that 747 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 2: I've made for lunch. And that's because I thought to myself, 748 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 2: what do I need so that I can make something 749 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 2: delicious in the least amount of time possible. 750 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: Oh man, I love those moments. There's sometimes moments when 751 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: you know you've done a really smart thing in life, 752 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: but you wish someone else was listening in your brain 753 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: talking about how excited you were or was seeing you 754 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 1: doing it because you want to be like felt like 755 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: you need the appraisal, but the only praise of you 756 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: are getting is from yourself. Hey, guilty, It happens to 757 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: me all the time. Actually all the time. That's smart. 758 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,880 Speaker 1: But you know the point trying to make Here is 759 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: if you are someone who does plan, and you plan, 760 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: it's really rewarding, and not because you've achieved a goal, 761 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: but because you actually executed to something you set out 762 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 1: to do yourself. You do get serotonin from that. And 763 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: I love this is who I am. And this may 764 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: be a bit extreme, but I love sitting down and going, Okay, 765 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: how many times do I want to hit the sauna 766 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 1: this week? How many minutes is what I do? How 767 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: many minutes of sauna do I want to do this week? 768 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 1: How many minutes of rem sleep do I want to 769 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: get this week? And then also like realistically, how what 770 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: does my week look like? For cooking? Now I'm a 771 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 1: bit different because it's my profession, but at home, like 772 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: I made a goal like I want to cook from 773 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 1: a millennimre this year, right, so all right, what does 774 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,800 Speaker 1: that look like? And so setting it out also allows 775 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: me to save time when I go to the grocery store. 776 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 1: You'll be surprised, like being able to avoid actually going 777 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:48,839 Speaker 1: to the grocery store because I planned ahead and put 778 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: things in my checkout box for whole foods and get 779 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 1: it delivered because I hit a certain threshold It's like 780 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 1: I save so much time just because I planned ahead 781 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: and what I was going to have. So I think 782 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: that's really important. It works for me. Everyone's going to 783 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 1: be able to like go sit down for twenty minutes 784 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 1: and think about what they're going to have as a 785 00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: recipe for the week. But if you can get to 786 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: a position of planning out your food as much as 787 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 1: your training goals, I think you've been a very very 788 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 1: comfortable spatly comes for shaving your free tweens. 789 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 2: And this is really what I had Joe Holder on 790 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 2: the podcast recently, and we talked about the concept of 791 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 2: quote unquote snacking not just with exercise and movement, but 792 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 2: also small things that you can do in other aspects 793 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 2: of hope of wellness, ranging from god mental wellness to 794 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: financial wellness to every type of wellness. But one of 795 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 2: the things that we really focused on was that if 796 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,640 Speaker 2: you make the time fifteen to twenty minutes to do 797 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 2: one thing on a day, then you're saving yourself time 798 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 2: on other days and you're potentially saving. 799 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:47,880 Speaker 3: Off a bad habit. 800 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 2: So those fourteenth those fifteen to twenty minutes that you 801 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 2: chose to prioritize yourself, I would argue that everyone can 802 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 2: do it, You just have to want to and you 803 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 2: have to make that conscious choice so that you could 804 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 2: set yourself up for success. And again this goes back 805 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 2: to where we started in knowing the root of your 806 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,359 Speaker 2: why and knowing that this is a priority for you 807 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 2: and you're not just doing it because you feel like 808 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 2: you quote unquote should be or saw that somebody else 809 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 2: was doing it. 810 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 1: Chancellor for Chance, like, you have to have that why, 811 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: And it's this intrinsic motivation for anything, you know, it's 812 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 1: it's it's the reason you do not stop after three 813 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 1: months and get bored or you want to mix it up, 814 00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 1: but still want to have the reason as to why 815 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: you were achieving it in the first place. Having that 816 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 1: first part of that intention is really what help sets 817 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 1: you in your in your path. So you know, I 818 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,240 Speaker 1: can sit here and say, you know, avoid refined sugar, 819 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 1: have heapes of edgies, you know, like all the stuff 820 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 1: you've already heard. If the biggest takeaway we have is 821 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 1: understanding your why to then plan, I think, then we 822 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: can win. 823 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, then we can really win. We can really win. 824 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 2: And I just want to like kind of cherry on 825 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 2: top of this by the with the concept that knowing 826 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:00,919 Speaker 2: why you want it eat. 827 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 3: A certain way should be rooted. 828 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 2: And how you want to feel, not just aesthetics or 829 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 2: a number on a scale or whatnot, because there are 830 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: so many things that can come up. Life happens, events happen, 831 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 2: and you might not see, you know, the kind of 832 00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 2: progress or whatnot that you were hoping for. But if 833 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 2: your why is rooted in I want to feel better 834 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: in my body, that can mean that you're feeling better 835 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 2: in your body. Is one day having this beautifully assembled 836 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,839 Speaker 2: lunch salad and the next it's splitting a cheese plate 837 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 2: with your friends. Right, So knowing your why will help 838 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 2: you be the person that you truly want to be 839 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 2: at the end of the day period. 840 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: I had a friend on my podcast, his name's Nick Bear. 841 00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: He was he's someone who's he can put on white easily, 842 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 1: he can like mass easily. He can run a math 843 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: on it like two hundred pounds and under two and 844 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. He's he's an absolute athlete. He said something 845 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 1: that was so you know, apparent to make obvious until 846 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: actually hurt him. The day that he stopped eating for 847 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 1: aesthetics and started eating for performance. It changed his eyes. 848 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: And that's not to say performance is physical. It can 849 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: be feeling, it can be emotional, it can be absolutely 850 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: physical in general. But ultimately he no longer looked at 851 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 1: food in a way that was like I have to 852 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 1: eat this, this and this this way. 853 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 3: That's just. 854 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 1: And like the Italian in US was just like, wow, 855 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 1: that is an Italian.
