1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: You may have heard that into in fasting is the 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 1: best way to lose weight without dieting. You may have 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: also heard that hit style training is an effective and 4 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,039 Speaker 1: time efficient way to work out, or what happens when 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: you can bind them both. Today on the Nutrition Couch podcast, 6 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: we take a close look at a recent groundbreaking research 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: trial that tests both hit style training and time restricted 8 00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: eating and what that means for health and metabolic efficiency. Hi, 9 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm leam. 10 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: Wood and our Cissy Burrow and we bring you the. 11 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: Nutrition Couch, the bio weekly podcast that keeps you up 12 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,239 Speaker 1: to date on everything that you need to know in 13 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: the world of nutrition and house as well as the 14 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: latest in dietary research. We take a deep dive into 15 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: the world of chicken or more specifically chicken thighs or 16 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: chicken rusts. Are you a thigh or a rest person? 17 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: And for ad Clite case study of the week, we 18 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: chat all things functions and party season. How to keep 19 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: your calories in check and your health on track during 20 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: the party or the silly season. It's coming up to 21 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: parties season. Actually it's coming up to Melbourne Cup very 22 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: soon in the next couple of days. I've here you 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: are making the trip down to Melbourne. 24 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 2: I am, and that's why we're recording. It's very very 25 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 2: late on a Sunday night, and we're a bit messy 26 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 2: lands making jokes about chicken, which it's a Dietitian thing, obvious, 27 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 2: And that's actually interesting because there'll be a lot of 28 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 2: functions there. You know, you go to those kind of 29 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: events and it's really well catered. So hopefully I can 30 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 2: share with our listeners some very easy strategies to be 31 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 2: able to combine eating out and parties, because certainly this 32 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 2: time of year it becomes really busy, and that I'm 33 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 2: traveling a lot as well. So yeah, it's all really 34 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: good fun and the good news is which we're going 35 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 2: to share today, there's some pretty easy ways that you 36 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 2: can keep your health on track. And there's some foods, 37 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 2: for example, I always take when I'm traveling, and we'll 38 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: be doing on Melbourne Cup Day, because of course we 39 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: all do like to enjoy a few venos and bubbles 40 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 2: at times, but there is an art to the balance 41 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: of eating out and enjoying good foods. So this is 42 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: a perfect time, I think, to be sharing those strategies. 43 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: I agree to. I think it's a wonderful topic to 44 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: be across for the silly season. But first we have 45 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: found a really great article in the Cell Metabolism Journal. 46 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: It's very recent, was published on the fourth of October, 47 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: so you pretty much can't get more recent in terms 48 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: of research, and the title of it was time restrictive 49 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: eating and exercise training improves HbA one C and body 50 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: composition in women with overweight and or obesity. And it's 51 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: a randomized control trial. So for those listening at home 52 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: who aren't aware of what HBO and C is, it 53 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: is a measure or a marker of your blood sugar 54 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: level average across three months. So this is an important study, 55 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: but I think it's important to be aware of These 56 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: results were in the overweight obese population, So if you're 57 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: listening in you're a healthy body weight or your underweight, 58 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: just take these I guess research results with a grain 59 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: of salt. So Susie're pretty across this study, so I 60 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,679 Speaker 1: might let you kick us off. But it's quite a 61 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: fascinating read, isn't it. 62 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: It's a great study. Now, I will preface it by 63 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: saying one of the authors is John Harley. Professor John Hawley, 64 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 2: who is married to Louise Burke, who is the head 65 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 2: of Sports Nutritional has been for many many years at 66 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: the Straight Institute of Sport and he is a prolific researcher. 67 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: I think he's down in Canberra and he does some 68 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 2: fantastic metabolic studies in general and diet work. Originally he 69 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 2: started in exercise. Now he does a lot more combo stuff. 70 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: So I was just doing a random sort of google 71 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: on diet stuff and it popped up and I thought, 72 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: how fantastic, and the more I read I messaged you 73 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: straight away and I said, we need to cover this. 74 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 2: It's a really interesting study. So first of all, it's 75 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: published in a very reputable journal Sell Metabolism, and it's 76 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: an RCT, which means that it's a very well controlled study, 77 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: and it was in one hundred and thirty overweight women. 78 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 2: And what's interesting is that there's not a huge number 79 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: of studies that are done in general in women. And 80 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: he actually talks about this on a podcast that I 81 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 2: listened to that goes through the results of this study. 82 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 2: So we've known for some timelyand that there are benefits 83 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 2: from time restricted eating. Now we talk about time restricted 84 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 2: eating in terms of being fasting but you know in 85 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 2: the literature it's often referred to as sort of hours 86 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 2: without food. So in this study they focused on about 87 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: ten hours without food per day, so the eating window 88 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: or sorry, the eating window was ten hours per day 89 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: and a fourteen hour fast on average. And so they 90 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 2: looked at time restricted eating. And also another area of 91 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: science that we know is particularly beneficial for metabolic function 92 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: and fat loss, which is HIT training. So HIT training 93 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: or high intensity interval training. You see it at various gyms. 94 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 2: It's that very short ten fifteen to twenty minute burse 95 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: where you might do a minute on a minute off 96 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: with really aiming to maximize heart rate. So this study 97 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: was unique because even though it sounds you think there'd 98 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 2: be hundreds of them, there's very few well controlled scientific 99 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: studies in women overweight women who have combined both HIT 100 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 2: training and time restricted eating. So in this study there 101 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: were four groups. That was the control group who did nothing, 102 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 2: then there was one group who did the HIT training 103 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: three times a week only. Then there was the group 104 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: who did just the time restricted eating and ate all 105 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 2: of their calories that weren't controlled. It was free eating freely, 106 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 2: but you had to eat everything within a ten hour window. 107 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: So say between nine and seven each day. And then 108 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 2: the fourth study group, which combined both the three times 109 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 2: a week short term interval training with the time restricted eating, 110 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: so no severe calorie restriction, no strict diet, eating freely 111 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: as long as you struck tore it within those ten 112 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: hours per day. And it was a seven week study only, 113 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: so not so long. But there were pronounced results significantly 114 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: higher weight loss, changes in body compositions, so more fat 115 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: loss than improvements in muscle mass, and reductions in fat 116 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 2: around the abdomen area, and also significant improvements in glacemic 117 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 2: control through the HbA one C measurement. So this is 118 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 2: a very powerful because, as I said, so few of 119 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: the studies combined both of those conditions to give positive results. 120 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: Now I've had a good read through it because I've 121 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: it up for something else, and the weight loss isn't hugely, 122 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 2: and you know, it's the difference between about roughly an 123 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: average of two kilo loss over the seven week period 124 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: compared to three kilos in the group that combine HIT 125 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 2: and time restricted eating. So it's about thirty percent more though, 126 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: and so what the study authors, including John, when I 127 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: listened to an interview, he gave on ABC was talking 128 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: about how positive potentially the results of this trial are. 129 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 2: So even though there's a number of take home messages 130 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 2: I think from this. 131 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: So the first is. 132 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 2: That there are benefits that come just from limiting the 133 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: number of hours that you eat each day, particularly for 134 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 2: people who were overweight. Now, these weren't morbidly obees people. 135 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: They were overweight or slightly obese. So this is a 136 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 2: lot of our listeners who maybe have ten twenty thirty 137 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: kilos on that you don't have to necessarily count calories. 138 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 2: You can simply just eat your meals in a shorter 139 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: period of time each day. And on top of that, 140 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: you don't have to flog yourself at the gym every 141 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 2: single day or go for even though there are benefits 142 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 2: to doing that. If your time poor, if you are 143 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 2: scared of gyms, you don't enjoy it. Just three times 144 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: a week of ten to twenty minutes hit style training 145 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 2: where you're increasing heart rates significantly, has been enough to 146 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: induce weight loss. Now, ian in clients that you and 147 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: I would work with, if they had lost three kilos 148 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: over seven weeks, it's not a bad loss. But some 149 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: people would think that's a bit on the slow side, 150 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: and certainly I'll have clients who can do more than 151 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 2: that in that time period, but it's still very positive results, 152 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: and that through a regime that many of our listeners 153 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 2: could easily incorporate into their lifestyle. So you may be 154 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: listening thinking to yourself, I don't have time to focus 155 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: on diets or calorie control, or I can't afford to 156 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: see a dietitian, or I hate the gym, I hate exercise, 157 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 2: I don't have time. I'm already time for If you've 158 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 2: got weight to lose, just eating your meals in ten 159 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: hours a day and getting the heart rate up three 160 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 2: times a week is enough to lose weight over a 161 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 2: seven week period. And this is a very strong message 162 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: for a population who is busy, time poor, not perhaps 163 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: not big exercises. I can think of a number of 164 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: my clients who already are hating exercise. But the other 165 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 2: key thing that I listened to as part of this 166 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: review was the benefit in delaying that first meal of 167 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 2: the day for at least an hour when you wake up. 168 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: Because one of the people I think they're involved in 169 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: the study as well, or do specific research on circadian 170 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: rhythm and fat loss, said that metabolically, the hormones are 171 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 2: not quite ready to go when we first wake for 172 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 2: many of us. So sometimes you're better to wait that 173 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 2: little bit of time and that makes that time restricted 174 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 2: eating easier. So for example, if you're up at six 175 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 2: in the morning and can wait to eat your first 176 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: meal until seven or eight, then it means that you 177 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 2: just have to make sure you've had dinner by six o'clock, 178 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 2: and it's easy to stick to that ten hour time window, 179 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: and even a twelve hour window is positive. Without strict 180 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 2: diets or calorie counting or all the different regimes that 181 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 2: people like to follow. It's a very sustainable model and 182 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 2: I think that that's what the professor John Hawley was 183 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: excited about. He said that it's not you get benefits 184 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 2: from HIT training, you get benefits from time restricted eating. 185 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: But when you combine them, particularly in a population who's 186 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 2: at risk of diabetes, has glucose issues, polycystic ovaries, insulin resistance, 187 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,719 Speaker 2: a family history of gestational diabetes, these are easy strategies, 188 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: lifestyle strategies that are very beneficial when it comes to 189 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: glycemic and glucose control, which has huge implications for a health. 190 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: Overall as we age. So I loved it. 191 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: I thought it was a brilliant study, really interesting and 192 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 2: really well explained and worth a discussion here because we've 193 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: got a lot of listeners. I think this kind of 194 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 2: data will resonate with. 195 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: Absolutely and I like that it's just achievable. You know, 196 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: when you think of the sixteen eight hour fast, which 197 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: you know, the intimate the tradition, not the traditional but 198 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: the popular style of intimate fasting, what that means is 199 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people are forcing themselves or going hungry 200 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: until eleven or twelve pm and being like, I can't 201 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,839 Speaker 1: eat until midday, I can't eat, I can't eat, and 202 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: they're ignoring their hunger. But a ten hour eating window, 203 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: it's pretty realistic, I think. Even and I'm still breastfeeding 204 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: a little bit with me and we're doing three or 205 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: four feet to day, I think even I could do that, 206 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't, but if I had to, I feel 207 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: like even that's achievable for me to do just that 208 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: ten hour window versus taking it back an extra step 209 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: and doing eight hours. I feel like it's a little 210 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: bit like, oh, I think I'd have to delay my 211 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: morning meal enough that I would genuinely feel quite hungry 212 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: for that. So I do like it that it's realistic 213 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: and achievable. It's not hours and hours of flogging yourself 214 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: in the gym. It's not like you have to get 215 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: ten thousand steps every day, which for a lot of 216 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: our desk workers and our office workers, it's quite overwhelming 217 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: to think about how many steps. Like, it's a good 218 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: hour and a half to two hours of walking if 219 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: you have a desk job. So I like it. You 220 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: can just get in, get it done, like ten fifteen 221 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: minutes of a hot, sweaty workout, get your heart rate up, 222 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: and you're out, Like anyone who can find that time. 223 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: You could do it at work if you've got you know, 224 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: access to showers or something like that. At work, you 225 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: could just go do some sprints in the street. You 226 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: can do some burpies or some you know, some squat jumps. 227 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: Like you don't even need equipment, you don't need a gym. Like, 228 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: it's so achievable to manage for the large majority of you. 229 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to see research like this because 230 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 1: we know that that loss can be controlled purely with nutrition. 231 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: But what we do love is the exercise component for 232 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: her mental health, for the indoor fhins to keep our 233 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: bones strong, you know, prevent the risk of ossio borosis 234 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: long term. Particularly we're doing a little bit of resistance 235 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: style training with that, So I think the combination of 236 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: the exercise and the nutrition together is really a winner. 237 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: But I like that this feels achievable, I would think 238 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: for the large majority of people. Yeah. 239 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 2: And I just laugh though, because it's so basic, isn't it. 240 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 2: Like think back to how you grandma ad she get 241 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: up and have her breakfast at seven or eight, lunch 242 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 2: at twelve, and dinner at six. Yeah, and so she 243 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: did that already. We've gone all this, so I come 244 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 2: back to basics. So just do a bit of heart 245 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 2: rate activity each week and just eat less in a 246 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 2: few hours and you'll be sweet. So I agree, it's 247 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 2: not that complicated. But it's also nice to see that 248 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: there are different options out there for people who are 249 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 2: juggling busy lives. And to me, you're right, that's very 250 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: clear guidelines. That's not overwhelming or daunting for people. And 251 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 2: I just thought, great, you know, it was a great 252 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 2: study and very relevant to the time. So if you're 253 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: interested in hearing there, As I said, there was another 254 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 2: podcast about it on the ABC, so have a look 255 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: at it. It with Professor John Hawley from I think 256 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: it's from the Australian National University down in Canberra, and 257 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: this research paper is in some metabolism. If you do 258 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 2: a quick Google search you can see the full link 259 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 2: to the paper there if you're interested and you want 260 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: to have a read. All right, Leanne, Well, that moves 261 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 2: on to party season, which is much more up our alli, really, 262 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: isn't it. That's what we want to talk about because 263 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 2: both you and I have had many examples in this 264 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: past few weeks come up with people eating out and 265 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: trying to juggle. And I say juggle because we all 266 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: like to go out and have a good time and 267 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 2: enjoy some drinks and socializing with friends and family. It's 268 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 2: a special time of year, particularly after the last few 269 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: years we've had when we've been so limited. But the 270 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 2: issue is that we also really like to indulge, and 271 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 2: many of my clients like to overindulge, and of course 272 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: that can undo much of the work we've put into 273 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: healthy eating over many months with a few functions. Because 274 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 2: I guess if I'm describing the typical scenario that presents 275 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 2: there because we do want a client case study, so 276 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: I'll give you a live one. So it would be 277 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,079 Speaker 2: my client has had lunch and then rush from work 278 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 2: at five o'clock to an event and they're completely dehydrated, 279 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 2: so they skull the cheap wine that's on off o, 280 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: you know, two three four glasses, and then they haven't 281 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: eaten before they've gone, so they'll have a few of 282 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,239 Speaker 2: the cannopees. And let's be honest, what are the cannopaes 283 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: land They're aaranchini balls and skewers of sate sticks and 284 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 2: little risotto pops and noodles. And then they think, oh, well, 285 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, I've eaten too much. And then they 286 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 2: might have the fish and chips that come out, or 287 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 2: the desserts, or if they've had a few too many drinks, 288 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 2: they'll stop on the way home and pick up a 289 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: cheeky takeaway because they're actually hungry because they haven't eaten dinner. 290 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 2: And then they get home and they've eaten six ' 291 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: eight about hundred one thousand calories and wake up feeling tired, bloated, 292 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 2: craving sugar, and completely off track. And that happens three 293 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 2: or four times a week, So that is very typical 294 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 2: of what I see on a standard food diary. So 295 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 2: the first tip I'll lead in with, and I'm sure 296 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: Leanne's got mini, is don't ever go to a party 297 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 2: or function hungry. Now that may seem counterintuitive, because if 298 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: you're going to dinner, you don't want to ruin the 299 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 2: dinner by eating before you go. But I guarantee you 300 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 2: that if you don't eat between lunchtime and five or 301 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: seven o'clock when you finally get out, you will be 302 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: so incredibly hungry you will eat every cannapey on offer. 303 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: And because they contain about two hundred calories each in 304 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: about five to ten grams of fat, you're going to 305 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 2: blow your calories out so quickly and not even notice it. 306 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 2: So the number one thing to do is an hour 307 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: or two before you go, whether that's four five o'clock, 308 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 2: you have a big bowl of veggies, so cut up cucumber, 309 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 2: cut up capsicum, cut up carrot, load it right up, 310 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: as well as a protein snack, whether it's a protein bar, 311 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 2: nut bar, cheese and crackers, mini wrap. And then when 312 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 2: you get to the event. It's not to say you 313 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 2: can't enjoy the food if it's yummin on offer, but 314 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 2: you won't waste your calories on rubbish because they're being 315 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 2: served in your starving. So that means you'll be more 316 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 2: discerning when they pass the cannopes around. You have a 317 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: look and think what do I really feel like because 318 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: you won't be driven off hunger. You'll be driven off 319 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 2: actually what you feel like having and enjoy the calories 320 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: and you can sip your your wine slowly and off 321 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: you go. So that's my number one first tip. Never 322 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 2: go to a functional event starving. You've got to make 323 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 2: it a priority to eat before you go, which is 324 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: exactly what I do when I travel. I take my 325 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: salard with me or I eat before I go, so 326 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 2: I can, you know, make the right decisions when I'm 327 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 2: there and I'm not starving. 328 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: I one understand, And I think that people think, oh, 329 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: that's weird, that's any dietitians do that, or it's a 330 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: diet strategy, but it's not. It's a good health strategy. 331 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: And I think just being aware of how many social 332 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: functions you really have each week is key, particularly this 333 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: time if you because I've got many clients Susie, who 334 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: are as you said? Three four or five social occasions. 335 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: So they're having a work lunch, then they're going out 336 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: with the hobby for dinner. Then there's a baby shower 337 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: on the weekend, and there's got a friends going away party, 338 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: then there's another work function next week, and they all 339 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: really add up. So I say to my clients, plan 340 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: out your week in advance. Know what you've got. If 341 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: you've got a lot of work or social functions that 342 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: you can't get out of, skip the dinner with the hubby. 343 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: You'll say to your friend, Heke, can we go for 344 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: a walk versus sitting down for a cafe style brunch. 345 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: So just be a little bit picky and choosy with 346 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: the events that you choose to partake in, and just 347 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: choose one event for the week to indulge in a 348 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: little bit more and try to keep the other events 349 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: as sort of clean and lean as possible. Now the 350 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: other ones. If you are going to more catered functions, 351 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: whether it's a work function or a wedding or something 352 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: like that, or a nice, you know, catered lunch or something, 353 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: skip the sugar cocktail on arrival. Often there's like a 354 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: choice of a mocktail or a cocktail. When you get 355 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: to these nice catered events. They can easily be two 356 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: three hundred calories. So if it's not your thing, if 357 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: it's not a sugary mocktail or cocktail is one of 358 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: my favorite things in the whole world, just pass on it. 359 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: That'll easily save you a massive sugar bomb and a 360 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: couple of hundred calories automatically. Now my other tip for 361 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: my clients, Susie, A lot of this does come back 362 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: to drinking, because, let's be honest, particularly in Australia, we 363 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: have a large drinking culture. Too many of us drink 364 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 1: far too much, if I'm being honest, and drinking is 365 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: just like it's almost frownd upon if you go to 366 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: an event and you're not drinking, like you're the weird 367 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 1: one or the odd one out if you're not drinking. 368 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: So what I say to my clients is all right, 369 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 1: if you choose to drink, I'm not going to judge 370 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: you for that, but we have to limit it to 371 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: two drinks. So I want you to drive for one. 372 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: And the second thing I want you to do is 373 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 1: when everybody gets there and everyone has their first drink, 374 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: I want your first drink to be either a water 375 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: or a sparkling water. I want your first drink to 376 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: be something non alcoholic and something with no calories in it, 377 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 1: because even if you were to have four drinks, as 378 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: an example, if you made your first drink water or 379 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: a sparkling water, then you're only having three compared to 380 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: everybody else's four. Or if everyone else has two, then 381 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: you're only having one, and just that one drink across two, three, 382 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: four social events that week can actually make a large difference. 383 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: And I think we get into that perfectionist mindset where 384 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: we're like, oh, I've already had a bad day at 385 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: the last social event, or I've already had a couple 386 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 1: of drinks one more, but that one more really does count, 387 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: and it really adds up because alcohol drives hunger. The 388 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: more you have, the more likely you are to go 389 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: and get takeaway on the way home, or to smash 390 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: the bag of chips at the server when you fill 391 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: up for fuel, or to get the two am kebub 392 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: when you're waiting in line for the taxils uber. So 393 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 1: those extra drinks shaw you count so where you can 394 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: set yourself a limit and stick to it. And then 395 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: my final tip, Susie is really just around where you stand. 396 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 1: So don't stand next to the food table, or don't 397 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 1: stand right next to the doors where the waiters are 398 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: coming out with plates and platters of cannapeys and aaror 399 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: guini balls and deep rides, bring rolls, and just don't 400 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 1: stand right next to there, because you will be so 401 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: tempted to grab everything that comes past you, and it's 402 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: not going to do you any real good because that 403 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: type of food doesn't make you feel great, and it's 404 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: so low volume you have to eat so much of 405 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: it for so many calories to actually feel full. So 406 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: remove yourself from the food or take a little bit, 407 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: build a balance plate, and then move away from the 408 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: food table. The longer you stand there, the longer you 409 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 1: will graze and pick and snack at that food and 410 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: very likely overeat. So just be conscious of where you're standing, 411 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: particularly next to the bar, particularly if there's free drinks 412 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: on offer. If you're standing next to the bar, you 413 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: will drink more, whether or not you realize it, than 414 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: if you're standing on the other side of the room 415 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: to the bar. 416 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like a couple of rules about the drink number. 417 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: We've just spoke about rules recently. I like to say 418 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 2: that a glass has to last my client's forty minutes 419 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 2: up to an hour, because I find people who drink 420 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 2: drink quickly, and so you keep chopping up and before 421 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 2: you know you've had sort of two three in a 422 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 2: very short period of time. So you've got to learn 423 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 2: to sip slowly and make a glass of alcohol last 424 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 2: at least forty minutes, and then when you can, of course, 425 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 2: have the glass of water in between. I'm a big fan, 426 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 2: if my clients are particularly social, of them writing down 427 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 2: a whole plan of the week when they're out when 428 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 2: they're not, because when they can actually see it written down, 429 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 2: it resonates a lot more about actually how much they're 430 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: going to be out and a way, and so it 431 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 2: helps find foster the planning phase of well, actually I'm 432 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 2: going to need a snack to take here, or I'm 433 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 2: going to have a lighter lunch here, which leads me 434 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 2: to lend itself to My clients are often eat lightly 435 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 2: in the day if they're going out at night, but 436 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 2: I don't like that because I find then they end 437 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 2: up hungry when they arrive. So I prefer them to 438 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 2: eat normally and stop up before they go and front 439 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 2: load the day, but then the next day, if they've 440 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 2: sort of had heavier food and alcohol and meals, really 441 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 2: wait till they're hungry to eat again, and then have 442 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: a light day the following day. So that's often counterintuitive 443 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 2: to the way they would do it. They'd eat lightly 444 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 2: and then overeat, whereas I say, stock up, try and 445 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 2: eat lighter at the actual event, but then wait till 446 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 2: your hungry again. And if you have overdone it because 447 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: it was amazing catering or you're at a beautiful restaurant, 448 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: just you know, eat lightly the following day to compensate 449 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 2: for those extra calories, and really wait until you're hungry again. 450 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,159 Speaker 2: So that's the day to reach for your sashimi or 451 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: your salads or lighter meals until you really get back 452 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 2: on track with your natural hunger. So there is a 453 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 2: bit of planning that goes into it. As I said, 454 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 2: that simple act of just writing down, you know, when 455 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 2: I'm out for dinner, oh, well that dam I'm going 456 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 2: to have this for lunch. I'm going to have that 457 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 2: snack and have it with me. I might not have 458 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 2: breakfast until I get to work. All those little strategies 459 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 2: and planning is really key, particularly if you are extremely social. 460 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: And one last strategy Susie this time of year, don't 461 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: be afraid to say no or set boundaries. If your 462 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: workplace enjoys. You know everybody buys lunch on a Monday 463 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: or a Friday, but you know you've got three or 464 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,719 Speaker 1: four social occasions for the week. Pack your lunch and 465 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: eat it. Don't go out and buy a burger and 466 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: Friars on a Friday. Lunchtime with all your work colleagues 467 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: because it's something that everybody does. Don't by taken things 468 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: just because everybody else is doing it. If you know 469 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 1: that you've already got a really social week ahead, so 470 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: just be a little bit more picky and chusy with 471 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: the things that you're going to partake in. If you've 472 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: got a very big social calendar, pack your lunch, go 473 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: out to lunch with everyone and take your pack lunch. 474 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: Be that weirdo, because putting your health first and setting 475 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: yourself boundaries in terms of your own health journey is 476 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: a good thing. Might be od, it might be weird, 477 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: but don't forget that sixty plus percent of Australians and 478 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 1: Americans are overweight to a bee, so we can't look 479 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: at what the average person is doing to tell us 480 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: what is healthy. So I think we just need to 481 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: be a little bit more aware of creating healthy boundaries 482 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: for ourselves and not be taking in everything just because 483 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: everybody in the office is doing it, or everybody else 484 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: at a party is overeating or over drinking. So your 485 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: boundaries to start with, and be very firm with them 486 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: if you are someone who has a lot of social 487 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: things coming up. Wonderful And then Susie, that leads us 488 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 1: on to our final listener question of the week, all 489 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: about chicken. So we have a lot of clients together. 490 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 1: We were just talking about this and I was saying 491 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: to you, oh man, some of my clients just will 492 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: not eat chicken breast. It's so hard to get them 493 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: to eat anything but chicken thye. And we thought, you 494 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: know what, let's have a discussion on chicken. So I 495 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: actually can't eat chicken thigh, like I just don't like 496 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: the taste of it. For whatever reason. I think I 497 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: just never had it growing up, Like my mum was 498 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: always very healthy and we only ever had chicken breast, 499 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: We never had chicken thigh. I never ate the skin chicken. 500 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: Mum would always pull it off before, you know, even 501 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: a roast chicken before we kind of got it. So 502 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,959 Speaker 1: I think it's just not something I ever grew up with, 503 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: So to me, it's not enjoyable. And if I go 504 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: to a restaurant like a perfectic example, I think I 505 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 1: went to like a Japanese place the other day and 506 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: it was a tariachy chicken. I was really looking forward 507 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: to it because it came with these beautiful like broccolini 508 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: and mushrooms, and I was chicken thigh when I got it, 509 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: and I was like, I just can't really enjoy it. 510 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,719 Speaker 1: So I'm not a fan. It is a lot leaner, 511 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: particularly for fat loss if you're having chicken breasts. But 512 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: what is your preference. I'm sure that you're you're a 513 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: breast girl, right. 514 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,480 Speaker 2: I constantly when my clients send me their food diaries, 515 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 2: and when it's got chicken thigh, I'm like, who buys 516 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: chicken thigh? 517 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 1: But people? 518 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 2: And I'm like you not me? And you know, I'll 519 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 2: tell you a funny story. My twins, I have very 520 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 2: basic food with them, and if they have chicken, I'll 521 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 2: get tenderloins and crumb them, and if I'm super organized, 522 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 2: I'll break down like some proper like grain bread. I've 523 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: hadn't actually used that as the crumb if I've got time, 524 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 2: so I've never I couldn't even tell you if I've 525 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 2: ever bought chicken drumsticks all wings right now. When we 526 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 2: were growing up, occasionally we would have drumsticks. My dad 527 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 2: informs me that my twins love drumsticks, and they when 528 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 2: they go to my parents' house that my parents cook 529 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: them drumsticks. And I was like, what, like, they've never 530 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: had it. So certainly I am a bit of a 531 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: chicken snob for one of a better discussion, But my 532 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 2: clients love all these pieces. So I said to you, 533 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 2: we were both winging about it, and so I thought 534 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 2: it was absolutely time to go through the numbers. Because 535 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 2: chicken is not all chicken. There's vast, vast differences. So 536 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 2: we wanted to talk about the fat content. Just to 537 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 2: give you a reference point why Leanne and I go 538 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 2: nuts when our clients are reporting that they're having drumsticks 539 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 2: and thighs and writing down chicken. So if we are 540 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: looking at a serve of chicken breast, so a serve 541 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 2: which is roughly i'd say about one hundred grams has 542 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 2: got about thirty grams of protein. It's only got three 543 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 2: point six grams of fat. So this is chicken breast 544 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 2: without the skin, very very lean, which is why the 545 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 2: bodybuilders love it. Now, if you then leave the skin 546 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: on your chicken breast, now not dissimilar to if you 547 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 2: go to the cheeky chicken for sale that willis and 548 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 2: coal with and eat that young skin that they've got 549 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 2: on the back of it. Even though you're having the 550 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 2: breast meat, very similar amount of protein perserve, but the 551 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 2: fat goes up to about eight grams of fat perserve, 552 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: So just in that skin itself, you're getting a lot 553 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 2: more fat and you're getting about thirty extra calories coming Now, 554 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: once we go to the drumstick, so this is a 555 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 2: drumstick with skin on, you're getting less protein, so twenty 556 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 2: seven grams of protein, significantly more calories, so about twenty 557 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 2: calories more per serve and a single drumstick. Oh, actually 558 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: this is per weight, so this is a similar amount, 559 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 2: but you eat a drumstick, you don't need a weight 560 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 2: of a drumstick. And then you're getting eleven grams of fat, 561 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 2: so that's you know, almost four times the amount of 562 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 2: fat in a single drumstick, then you would be getting 563 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 2: than if you had the breast meat if you have 564 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 2: a chicken thigh. So that's that sort of quarter part 565 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 2: of it, twenty five grams of protein and almost sixteen 566 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 2: grams of fat per serve. Now as a reference point, 567 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 2: a small female probably only needs about sixty grams of fat, 568 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 2: maybe up to eighty grams of fat per day. So 569 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 2: as soon as you're consuming that fatter your meat, you're 570 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 2: getting more than a quarter of your fat, a lot 571 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 2: of which is saturated. And that's assuming you're sticking to 572 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: just that one portion of meat itself. Then if you're 573 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: a wing fan particularly I do know there's people who 574 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: go to like wing restaurants, you get twenty seven grams 575 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 2: of protein, but it's almost three hundred calories, so over 576 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 2: one hundred calories more per serve just by having that 577 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 2: different part of the chicken. And then you're getting almost 578 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 2: twenty grams of fat in the wings. So this is 579 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 2: why leanne and I always like chicken breast because it's 580 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: really lean and we know how much is in it. 581 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 2: As soon as you're going to thigh, you're going to 582 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 2: the wings, the drumsticks, you get a whole lot more fat, 583 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: and you'll get less protein and significantly more calories thanks 584 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: to that fat load. So when you write chicken, it 585 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 2: is worth being discerning about the type that you're having. 586 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 2: And it's not equivalent to chicken breast. It's vastly different. 587 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 2: And I'm like U Leianne, I don't cook it, And 588 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 2: as soon as my clients are putting it in there, 589 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 2: I like to remind them that the breast is always 590 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 2: best if they can well chicken mintce. Funnily enough, chicken 591 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: mints that you can find in supermarkets is actually less 592 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 2: than ten percent fat, so quite a lean option to 593 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 2: mix with some cauliflower rice for a quick stir fry, 594 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 2: or to make chicken ressolets and chicken patties with. But yeah, 595 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: drumsticks thighs, and clients will say to me, Leanne, Oh, 596 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 2: but I've taken the skin off. But the fat's not 597 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: only in the skin, you see, it's right through the meat. 598 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 2: And so it's much much higher in calories, much lower 599 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: in proteins, they're not as filling, and a lot more 600 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 2: fat overall. So yeah, Leanne, and I won't be getting 601 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: an endorsement for chicken wings anytime soon. Safe to say 602 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 2: that it's. 603 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: Not just the chicken wing, the fat on the skin, 604 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: it's what you put with chicken wings. Like, I've never 605 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: met someone who didn't eat chicken wings slowly and some 606 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: sort of sauce or they've got some sort of butter 607 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: or crumb or fry or something on them. Particularly my 608 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: American clients, Gosh, they love their wings over it's covered 609 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: in this like cheesy ranch, blue cheese kind of sauce. 610 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: Like it's, oh, it's not my thing, absolutely not my 611 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: thing at all. Like I love food, don't get me wrong, 612 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 1: but I'm not a wing scull. Yeah. 613 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 2: Well, when it comes I guess to calorie balance, and 614 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 2: when we're modeling our diets, you know, what we sort 615 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 2: of are always trying to do is get a balance 616 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,199 Speaker 2: of the good and not so good fat and the 617 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 2: benefit as soon as you consume lean protein. Not only 618 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 2: is the dinner sort of larger in the sense you 619 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 2: can have a larger portion of it, it's more felling, 620 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: but it basically means you can get your fat from 621 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 2: different sauces. So for example, you know, if I'm looking 622 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 2: at it, I've had a client recently and she loves 623 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: butter and we're going to talk about butter and Marjarine 624 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 2: an upcoming episode. So she was like negotiating with me 625 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: how much butter she could have through the day with 626 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 2: their toast. So I said to her, well, you can't 627 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: have butter and avocado and dressing and nuts and chocolate 628 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 2: at night and chicken thigh like you kind of got 629 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,719 Speaker 2: a pick, right, So most people are happier to swap 630 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 2: out the fatty meat and go for lean meat or 631 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: chicken breast if they can leave in their chocolate, or 632 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: leave in their nuts, or leave in their avocados. So 633 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 2: we've sort of got three, four or five serves of 634 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: fat to play with. And if you're going to knock 635 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 2: out a whole lot of twenty grams of fat and 636 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 2: a serve of meat, it's going to mean you've got 637 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: a lot less for things that you probably love more, 638 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 2: so your cheese and your nuts and your chocolate. So 639 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: if you think of it like that, twenty grams of 640 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 2: fat at least in a serve of meat is pretty high. 641 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 2: And in my clients, I'm sort of aiming for ten 642 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 2: grams of fat or less when I'm looking at lean steak, 643 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: lean mince, chicken breast, and it's a little bit different 644 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: with salmon. Of course it's a different type of fat. 645 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, the benefit of choosing lean meats is the 646 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 2: calories of the final meal of the day are lower, 647 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 2: and then you just get a bit more room to play, 648 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 2: particularly with more indulgent foods, whereas it's really difficult to 649 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: add those back in. If you're having fatty cuts of 650 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 2: meat at night, it really loads the calories of the 651 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 2: meal up of around five six hundred, when often we're 652 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: aiming for them to be a bit lower when it's 653 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 2: coming for fat loss. 654 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: I agree, and I say the same to my I say, look, 655 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: I'm happy to give your chicken dye, but instead of 656 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: getting X amount in terms of breast, you get X 657 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: amount less when you're gonna eat thigh. And they go, okay, 658 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: that's fine, that's fine. But they're often the same clients 659 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: to go, nope, I only want full green milk. I 660 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: won't have skim milk. I'll only have full fat cheese. 661 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: I won't use you know, reduced fat cheddar or anything 662 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: like that. And then after I reckon about three or 663 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: four days on their mealk plane, they're like, oh, I'm 664 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: so hungry, I'm like, why don't we try the volume 665 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: dense eating way, and they're like, oh, I'm so much fuller. 666 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: So I think people just forget how quickly the fats 667 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: add up in a meal. So I'm all for eating 668 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: more food for less calories. 669 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 2: Well, and also I want you to think about it. 670 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 2: If you have a chicken breast on your plate, so 671 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 2: it takes quite a long time to chew through chicken breast, 672 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: it's incredibly filling. If you have chicken thigh or drumsticks 673 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 2: or wings, right that meat, that brown meat dissolves really quickly, 674 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: you don't have to chew it as much. It's not 675 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 2: as filling. So it's not as filling a food. And 676 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 2: certainly when you look at Society Index of Food, steak 677 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 2: and chicken are actually incredibly filling because you have to 678 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 2: chew them so much. There's a really high satiety value 679 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 2: associated that, and that's beneficial to people when you're losing weight. 680 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 2: You want foods that you can chew that take a 681 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,719 Speaker 2: while to eat, in a while to be digested. Whereas 682 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: the softness of itself of chicken thighs and legs, it's 683 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 2: very quickly digested and you don't get that full factor 684 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: from it. I guarantee if you sat down to a 685 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 2: chicken breast one hundred and fifty grams versus one hundred 686 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 2: and fifty grams of chicken drumstick, it would be much 687 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: much more feeling to sit and chew through that breast, 688 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 2: even if you had it crumbed. So it's important just 689 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: for us satiety value as well and an overall protein content. 690 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: And with that, you know, you pay your chicken breast 691 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 1: with some stir fry vegetables and some brown rice compared 692 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: to if you had your thigh with some mashed potato 693 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,959 Speaker 1: and you know, just a little bit of spinach through 694 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: the mass potato, You're not getting that volume and it's 695 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: just not there. So you're eating that meal so much 696 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: faster and you end up overeating it compared to when 697 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 1: you slow down. You have to chew your food more 698 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: as well. So there's a lot that goes into the 699 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: science behind nutrition, and not just this food is good 700 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: or this food is bad. It's really about how you're 701 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: making up the complete meal as well. Overall, we are 702 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: much bigger fans of breast than thigh. You can make 703 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: thigh work, but if the goal is fat loss, or 704 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: if the goal is to create a calorie deficit to 705 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: achieve the fat loss, you will likely get less than 706 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: if you did have something like chicken. 707 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 2: Breast, true being served chicken thigh at the party the 708 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 2: end and I throw that's sure. 709 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: Well, that brings us to the end of the Nutrition 710 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: Couch and what we will serve is probably something nice 711 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: like a French rose. Got wine on my mind tonight. 712 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 2: And some cheese, and some cheese would be nice to Actually, it's. 713 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: Some nice greeny crackers. All right, we better rub this up. 714 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 1: We're talking about food, yes, So that brings us to 715 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: the end of the Nutrition Couch for another Sunday.
