1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: Have you ever tried fasting before? Maybe you steal fast 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: and if you do, is it the five is to 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: two or the sixteen to eight that works for you 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: or is it another type of fasting? The continue research 5 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: on the benefits of fasting continues to come out in 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: the media, and today on the Nutrition Couch podcast, we 7 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: share the latest research on some new fasting style diets. Hi, 8 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm Leanne Wood and I'm Suzi Burrow, and together we 9 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: bring you the Nutrition Couch, the weekly podcast that keeps 10 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: you up to date on everything that you need to 11 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: know in the world of nutrition as well as all 12 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: things fasting. Today we share our best tips on taking 13 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: control of your food environment no matter where you find yourself. 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 2: And for all the snitty lovers out. 15 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 1: There, we found the best and the worst supermarket chrumb 16 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,279 Speaker 1: chicken products and our list of question today is all 17 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,239 Speaker 1: about protein and protein powder. But to kick us up today, Susie, 18 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: we are chatting all about a new fasting regime because 19 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: we know there's quite a lot of them out there 20 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: and a lot of our listeners have dabbled in them. 21 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: But to me, I very much find it's something that 22 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: suits the lifestyle of a per and more so than 23 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: something I should or shouldn't do. For a lot of 24 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: my clients, if they are doing fasting, it just fits 25 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: in really easily with their lifestyle. But there is a 26 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: new one talking about the benefits of I think it 27 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: was from like a what were the benefits of this one? 28 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 2: Hoestly deprived mom? It's terrible, isn't it. 29 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: I think that we see so many diet headlines, and 30 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 3: so many are terrible that you can't really use in 31 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 3: practice because they're extreme or fads or written by someone 32 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 3: not qualified. So this one popped up via the Daily Mail, 33 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 3: but it had actually been published in Nature in terms 34 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 3: of a broader scientific study that actually, you know, tickled 35 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 3: my fancily and I thought that's a great topic because 36 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:44,400 Speaker 3: you know, traditionally it's a new fasting regime basically, which 37 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 3: we'll talk about in the second. But you know, when 38 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 3: fasting became popular, say four or five years ago, it 39 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 3: really was originally based on the anti aging benefits from 40 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: a cellular perspective. It wasn't specifically weight loss. It was 41 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: then people who took those models of low calorie days 42 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 3: or extended periods overnight without eating, or fewer meals per 43 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: day and translated it into a weight loss program that 44 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: and obviously sold millions and millions of copies around the 45 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 3: world because weight loss cells and people are always interested 46 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 3: in something new in that space. So really fasting has 47 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 3: occupied a lot of interest. Now we've spoken about fasting 48 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 3: many times on the podcast, the ones for how we 49 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 3: use it, the different types, and this is basically an 50 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: adjusted version of fasting based on some research in which 51 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,639 Speaker 3: they were fiddling around with different regimes, because traditionally there 52 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: was the five two where there was two are low 53 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 3: calorie five hundred cow days each week, followed by regular eating, 54 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 3: and then of course the longer overnight fast like the 55 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 3: sixteen eight where you have sixteen hours without food. Now, specifically, 56 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 3: when you look at the research in terms of benefits, yes, 57 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 3: they are associated with some weight loss, but more importantly 58 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: they're associated with improved cell functioning bridguce, levels of insulin, 59 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 3: blood gluecose, low blood pressure, and in some cases over 60 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 3: time anti aging benefits. So this is a new lot 61 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 3: of dart and they're calling it a fasting mimicking approach. 62 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 3: So what the researchers have done is rather than take 63 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 3: extremely low calorie days, which is a five hundred cow day, like, 64 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 3: it's hard to do that. That's like a piccolo, a 65 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 3: hard boiled egg, salad, and maybe seventy grams of chicken 66 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: or fish. It really is very little food, and as 67 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: such I'm not always a big fan, particularly for my 68 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 3: women who have very high energy demands. But this was 69 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: researchers who looked at a slightly different regime where five 70 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 3: days per month, the followers of the regime ate a 71 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 3: lower calorie diet, but it wasn't as low as five hundred. 72 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 3: It was about a thousand on some days, which is 73 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 3: not too bad. You know, a thousand calorie day would 74 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 3: look something like a protein yogurt and some fruit, and 75 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 3: then a salad with tuna, and then some grilled fish 76 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: and veggies. So it's low cow using light products, but 77 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 3: it's still eating regular meals and not skipping and not 78 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 3: eating as little as five hundred, and then that went 79 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 3: down to as low as seven hundred, which if you're 80 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: skilled dietetically, you can definitely use what we call high 81 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 3: nutrient density low volume, No that's wrong, high volume, low 82 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 3: calorie density, high nutrient density food, so things like salad 83 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 3: suit which don't have many calories to still mean people 84 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 3: are eating a lot, but it's very low calorie overall, 85 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: and so followers would do a couple of thousand cow days, 86 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 3: a couple of seven hundred or so days over five 87 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 3: days per month, and then just eat regularly the rest 88 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: of the time. And the researchers found that that model 89 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 3: still mimicked a number of benefits of fasting without the 90 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 3: extreme restriction. And in the study they found that the 91 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 3: biological markers of aging, so things like glucose levels, inflammatory markers, 92 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 3: were significantly decreased over time and associated with reduced risk 93 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 3: of aging and better cellular health. And so I thought, oh, 94 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: it's actually what they called, i should say, a lower 95 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 3: chronological age. So basically the people the cells were healthier 96 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 3: and were mimicking a longer lifespan long term. So you know, 97 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 3: of course we can't say people will live longer, but 98 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: from a cellular health perspective, it did look very very 99 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 3: positive in the study that I believe when over two 100 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 3: years was published in the journal Nature Communications, I should 101 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 3: say it was also very early in the research phase, 102 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: but I thought it just came back to a good 103 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 3: discussion lean that when it comes to calorie intakeover time, 104 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: what I notice is that people are very keen to 105 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 3: eat a minimum number of calories each day, and as 106 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: such follow the same program day in, day out, and 107 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 3: then certainly they're very happy to over consume calories in 108 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: line with social eating, particularly weekends. 109 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 4: So the average client would eat pretty well. 110 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 3: Say Monday to Wednesday, and then it starts to go 111 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 3: downhill Thursday, as the alcohol picks up and the takeaways 112 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 3: pick up, and then there is pure debauchery over the weekends, 113 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 3: where there might be two or three thousand calories consumed 114 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 3: because of large meals or functions or a lot of alcohol. 115 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: So I have typically always encouraged my clients to have lighter, 116 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 3: lower calorie days, and when you put that out there 117 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 3: on social media, you get a lot of kickback. Oh, 118 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: you're promoting fat dieting. You should be encouraging that. But 119 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 3: my rationale to having a light day or two, so 120 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: for example, waking up in the morning and just having 121 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 3: a veggie juice or a shake, and then maybe a 122 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 3: salad for lunch, maybe just some light fruit or veggies 123 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 3: in the afternoon, and then a soup for dinner. There's 124 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 3: nothing wrong with having a lighter day. You're very happy 125 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 3: to have heavier days. It's not going to kill you 126 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 3: to have a light day or two. And I like 127 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: this as a model because I think it's sustainable, and 128 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 3: one of our pet hates is any dietary regime that's 129 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 3: not sustainable, whether it's replacing all your food with shakes 130 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 3: or fruit. 131 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 4: Juice is heaven forbid. 132 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 3: Or having you know, really lowcale days, which are things 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: like five hundred calorie diets twice a week. That is 134 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,720 Speaker 3: hard to do, and even if you can manage it 135 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 3: for a short period of time, inevitably, in my experience, 136 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 3: people rebound and go back to their old habits and 137 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: metabolically that's not great for us. So what I like 138 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: about this is a model, and admittedly it's in its 139 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 3: very early stages, is that to be strict five days 140 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 3: per month and then eat pretty normally the rest of 141 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 3: the time, for me, is a sustainable model. And also 142 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: you're not encouraging people eat nothing. You know, with some 143 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,239 Speaker 3: very smart work, you can easily eat quite a lot 144 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 3: for that many calories if you're smart with your soups 145 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 3: and your vegetables. And certainly it can be a nice 146 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 3: buffer for people who are used to sort of overdoing 147 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: it some of the time, and certainly it appears there 148 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: are a number of cellular health benefits without having to 149 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 3: revert to much more extreme fasting. 150 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: And the early research shows some immune function improvements as well, 151 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: which we know that if they gut you know, you're 152 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: nourishing your gut. Probably if you are eating a lot 153 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: more fruits and veggies and that sort of thing, you 154 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: should as a byproduct get a better immune system as well. 155 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: So perhaps it is tied into a bit more gut rests, 156 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: which we know that fasting protocols do do. So I 157 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: thought it was quite interesting and I was just having 158 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: a little squiz of it as well Susie, and in 159 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: my head I sort of thought, well, it's interesting because 160 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, five tours two days a week of fasting 161 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: and five you know, quote unquote normal eating days in 162 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: this study, I thought, well, it's only you know, it's 163 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: five days in total, it's roughly a day a week. 164 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: But then when I read through it further, it's actually 165 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: five consecutive days. So that is a little bit I 166 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: guess more difficult from a will power perspective, Like I 167 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: don't know if I could do five low calorie days, 168 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: definitely not while breastfeeding at the moment, but it will 169 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: take that little bit more whellpower because it does have 170 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: to be done consecutively. And it did appear that they 171 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: started higher calories, so you know, day one was around 172 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: eleven hundred calories. Well days two to five saw them 173 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: eating around on average seven to twenty calories. 174 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: So it does take a little bit of a drop. 175 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: But as you said, if you're smarter with the meals 176 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: you're choosing, if you're not just choosing a you know, 177 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: three hundred calorie protein barrows your breakfast, if you're being 178 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: a bit smarter and you're using a whole lot of 179 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: different types of whole foods and veggies and soups and 180 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: you know, veggie based juices, you. 181 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 2: Can get a little bit more in. 182 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: But I would definitely say that, at least initially to 183 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: start with touch base with a dietitian to make sure 184 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: you are getting in the best possible nutrients you are 185 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: on those super low calories, and then the other twenty 186 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: five days of the month where you are eating quote 187 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: unquote naturally, make sure that's not like a binge rebound 188 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: day where this wouldn't be appropriate for somebody who has 189 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,239 Speaker 1: a bit of disordered eating who has a poor relationship 190 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: with food because they may try to overcompensate on those 191 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,239 Speaker 1: extra twenty five days and feel, you know, quite deprived 192 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: from the five days of low calorie eating. So it's 193 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 1: certainly not for everybody, but you know, it would have 194 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: benefits for a lot of people, particularly as as you said, 195 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: like it can improve your cellular health, improve your immune system, 196 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: and decrease some other markers of metabolic diseases, which we 197 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 1: know is quite terrible longer term. So I was just 198 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: looking at the study participant Suzi, and they were basically, 199 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: you know, people ranging from eighteen to seventy years old, 200 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: so a huge range of and men and women included. 201 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: It wasn't gender specific. And what I was thinking is 202 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: because the study did show decreases in not only the 203 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: chronological age, but also things like the abdominal fat around 204 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,360 Speaker 1: the liver, decreasing risk of things like metabolic syndrome, which 205 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: we know are great markers, and I just sort of thought, 206 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: I wonder if they were healthy weight individuals or overweight individuals, 207 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 1: and just the reference study that we have didn't note that, 208 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: but I think, you know, the average person, the average 209 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: austrain is overweight or OB. It's you know, sixty five 210 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: percent of you know, our country is overweight to OB. 211 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: So I would say if they just used average quote 212 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: unquote people in the study, then the majority of them 213 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: would have been overweight. So it's probably not something that 214 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: you'd see the same benefits from. If you were a 215 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: good healthy weight, you were very active, you didn't have 216 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 1: that abdominal fat all that sort of thing, so you 217 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 1: might not see additional benefits from that. But certainly if 218 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: you are over weight, you're holding additional weight around your 219 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: mid section, around your organs such as your liver, you 220 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: would probably get some benefits from this. And you know 221 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people would find that will power just 222 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: five days a month easier to I guess find than 223 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,199 Speaker 1: twice a week on something like the five is to 224 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:26,680 Speaker 1: two diets. 225 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 2: So I can definitely see. 226 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: The pros and cons of that depending on the type 227 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: of person. So quite new interesting research, isn't it. 228 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 3: I loved it because it was practical and just going 229 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 3: back to that idea of is it a model that 230 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: could be sustained? And this actually links on to our 231 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 3: next segment we're going to talk about, which is how 232 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 3: to not be a victim of your food environment quite powerfully, 233 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 3: because I think that part of success when it comes 234 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 3: to behavioral change. So I'm not talking diet success because 235 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 3: there's no such thing. 236 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: You know. 237 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 3: It's not like you do a perfect diet and get 238 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 3: extra scores or extra years on your life. We can 239 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 3: hope for that, but it's not absolute, you know. I 240 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: think it's more about life and balance. And for example, 241 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: in that model, I would you know, if someone was 242 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: coming and wanted to get the benefits of this kind 243 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 3: of research or even kickstart weight and reduce inflammation, or 244 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 3: if someone had glucose regulation issues, insulin resistance, high risk 245 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 3: of diabetes, I would be encouraging them to say, I 246 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: want you to commit to a quiet a week, you know, 247 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 3: once a month where maybe from Sunday to Thursday you 248 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 3: don't go out a whole lot. You are prepared to 249 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 3: go to bed early and really prepare your meals at 250 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: home because that gets you on that right step to 251 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 3: balancing it out and kitting the ground running. You know, 252 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 3: we know from weight loss research, if people get initial results, 253 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 3: it's very predictive of change. So it's about setting your 254 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 3: environment and setting your life up with the systems that 255 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 3: are supporting that and perhaps in a life that does 256 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 3: tend to be very busy, where mum's listening or parents 257 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 3: listening will know there's sort of school time and a 258 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 3: holiday time, and it's very hard in holiday time to 259 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 3: get anything done because there's so much else going on. 260 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 3: And it's similar you may find that you do need 261 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 3: a day two days a week each month that are quieter, 262 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 3: and that's where that would work quite well in overall 263 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: lifestyle balance. Keeping in mindly and that we spend so 264 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 3: much time out gallivanting socializing, you know, sometimes we just 265 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 3: haven't got that buffer effect right, which leads us on 266 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 3: to what I wanted to chat today when it came 267 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: to a client case example was you know when I 268 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: have feedback from my clients that they have been And 269 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 3: this is not one client, because I regularly get text 270 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 3: messages from clients saying were you talking about me? 271 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 4: And I was like, well, if it sounds like a 272 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 4: duck noo. 273 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 3: This is just a general observation of clients, so I'm 274 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: not talking about anyone in particular, but it's for example, 275 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 3: I'll have a client who is a business person and 276 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 3: they'll be traveling for work remotely or I've got someone 277 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 3: who's going for a cheeky weekend away and they find 278 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 3: themselves at their airport and all of a sudden, they're 279 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 3: making food choices which aren't ideal, or they're eating the 280 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 3: food on the plane, which, let's be honest, can be 281 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 3: hit and miss. It can be amazing, or it can 282 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 3: be pretty dodge. And the questions off for my clients 283 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 3: is that did you take something with you? 284 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 4: Did you plan ahead? Did you consider? 285 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 3: And in many cases my clients will be no, And 286 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 3: I gently will discuss the idea of taking control of 287 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 3: your food environment. And this is very much what we're 288 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 3: going to cover in one of our upcoming seminars. We've 289 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 3: got two coming up the week after next the first 290 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 3: week of March. We've got one Eating for Best Self, 291 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 3: which lean'll talk about in a minute, but this one 292 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: is about dishing the diet cycle and taking and I 293 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 3: know that will resonate because there's so many of our 294 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 3: listeners who are either on or they offer program and 295 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 3: of course, when you're on, you have to be one 296 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: hundred percent perfect, and it's very focused and very stressful. 297 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 3: And then when you're off and you're just doing whatever 298 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 3: you like and what we're going to talk about in 299 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: detail in this seminar is the behaviors and the mindset 300 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: that comes to creating a food model and foundation that 301 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 3: breaks that cycle so you are not constantly on or 302 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: off a program. Rather, this is the new normal for 303 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 3: you that allows you to live your life, enjoy good 304 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 3: quality food away from the home, but control your weight 305 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: and not be in that constant losing or gating or 306 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 3: on or off cycle. Because there is so much food 307 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 3: around all the time. 308 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 4: Wherever you go. 309 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: There's catering, there's people snacking, there's food on sale, there's 310 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 3: exciting restaurants, there's food courts. You know, you go to 311 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 3: the airport at any time of the day or not, 312 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 3: everyone's eating. You know, you get off of food on 313 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: the plane, like no one can eat like that generally 314 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 3: and not gain weight over time because the kinds of 315 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 3: foods that are available readily are not great for us. 316 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: They're high carbohydrate, they're highly process the high calories. So 317 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 3: get rid of that thought that some people can eat 318 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 3: whatever they want. It's a mindset of you know, I'm off, 319 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 3: so I can eat whatever I like. And that is 320 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: what I want to get to the bottom of with 321 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 3: my clients when they're at a work conference or they're 322 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 3: traveling for a weekend away. It's not just let's throw 323 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 3: all the food rules out the window and I'll just 324 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 3: eat whatever I like, because when they're on the holiday 325 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 3: or when they're going on the weekend, they're already going 326 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 3: to go and have a beautiful meal at a restaurant 327 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: or a few drinks at a pub. We don't get 328 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 3: freedom to just eat all in between. And so I'm 329 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 3: coming back to the idea that it's about creating the 330 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,240 Speaker 3: platform for yourself and the system so that you foresee 331 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 3: what is going to be available and roughly know what 332 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 3: you're going to eat. So, for example, if you are 333 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 3: going on a trip, you've got to pack food with you. 334 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 3: Of course you're not going to go to a regional 335 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 3: pub and they're going to have great choices. It just 336 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 3: won't happen. 337 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 4: You know that. 338 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 3: If best it might be a shinselon salad, but you're 339 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 3: still not going to get the snacks that you need. 340 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: So you've got to foresee and plan and take it 341 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 3: with you. The same on a plane, there's no point 342 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 3: going to the food court and expecting there to be 343 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 3: an amazing salad that doesn't cost thirty five dollars. You know, 344 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 3: if you're lucky, you'll get a piece of soggy lettuce 345 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 3: and tomato and pay that much for it without the 346 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 3: protein that you need anyway. So we just wanted to 347 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 3: talk about a little bit about the power of planning 348 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 3: and how important it is to shift your mindset from 349 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 3: being a victim of your food environment, which I hear 350 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 3: all the time, whether it's at a conference, whether it's 351 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 3: at a work event, whether it's at a kids party, 352 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 3: whether it's at the football on the weekend, whether it's 353 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 3: on a plane, all those examples, and you can see 354 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 3: it adds up and said to take control. So in 355 00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: most cases you've got to back up. 356 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 4: You've got to plan. 357 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 3: You know what you're going to have, and that means 358 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 3: that your foundation, your nutrition is strong. So when you 359 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: do go to the gorgeous restaurant or having some beautiful 360 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 3: cocktails on holidays, you can enjoy them because that foundation 361 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: is there. And as I said, it's often interestingly anna 362 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 3: throwaway line from my clients. They'll be really like tight 363 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 3: and sending their diaries and getting on track, and then 364 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 3: all of a sudden they'll just write, oh, I was 365 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 3: off on the weekend, or I was at the airport, 366 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 3: And again that just triggers me to think they're on 367 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 3: or off, it's all or nothing. And that's what I 368 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 3: need to work on with them long term, so that 369 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 3: they are empowered to always take control of their food 370 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 3: when it's not a special occasion. 371 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 4: It's just runn of the meal life. 372 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 2: And I had it. 373 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: It's just an example of a friend of a friend 374 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: that I hadn't seen in a long time, and I 375 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: know that she has struggled with her weight for the 376 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 1: better part of the ten years that I've kind of, 377 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, been associated with her. And she was saying, oh, 378 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 1: I don't feel good, Like she knows, I sort of 379 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: specialized and they got health and she was asking me 380 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: about bloating and stuff, and she was feeling really heavy 381 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: and bloated that morning, and I said, oh, what did 382 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: you have last night? She goes, oh, I went to 383 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: grill and I ate a bit too much. And I said, oh, 384 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: you know, tell me a little bit more about that, 385 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: and she goes, oh, well, you know, I'm supposed to 386 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: be on this gym challenge. But we went to grilled 387 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: and I let my friend to order and you know, 388 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: they had the kids, both her and the friend had kids, 389 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: and she goes, oh, so then my friend ordered us 390 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: burgers and chips, and she ordered way too many chips, 391 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: so I wasn't going to have any. But then I 392 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: started eating them, and they were just all these chips around, 393 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: and I ate too much chips, and I ate the burger, 394 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: and I know I shouldn't have and you know, I 395 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: had something at home. I should have cooked before her, 396 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: and I could have eaten something. And it was just 397 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: as you explained. She was just the victim to the 398 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: food environment. And there were so many occasions. I was 399 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 1: thinking in my head, so many things she could have 400 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: done to control that situation, even just a little bit better, 401 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: to make it easier on herself, Like she could have 402 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: eaten before she went, so she wasn't starving by the 403 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 1: time she got there. 404 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 2: She could have ordered herself. 405 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: And not let her friend order. She could have, you know, 406 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: moved all the chips in front of the kids instead 407 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,440 Speaker 1: of having them right in front of her so she 408 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: ends up overeating. 409 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 2: She could have ordered a salad. 410 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 1: So she could have enjoyed the chips as well, versus 411 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: having the heavy burger and the chips as well. She 412 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 1: could have you know, there were multiple things that she 413 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 1: could have done in that situation. But like you said, said, 414 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: she's very all or nothing. She's other on the diet, 415 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: she's on the gym challenge, she's one hundred percent clean 416 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: and she's eating a protein in broccoli every day or 417 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 1: what you know, whatever it might be. Or she's completely 418 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: off track and she's deroud and she's overeating and then 419 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: she wakes up feeling gross and bloated and heavy because 420 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: she's had a massive, you know, off track kind of meal. 421 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: So it's really like when you hear it and it's 422 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: easy to see when you've kind of come out of that, 423 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: but when you're going through that, it's so so difficult. 424 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,959 Speaker 1: But like you said, if you're someone who's listening and 425 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: you feel like that's your biggest kind of hang up, 426 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: the best thing you can do is actually take control 427 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: of as many choices as you can. Like, if your 428 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: friend says, hey, do you want to go out somewhere, 429 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: don't say sure thing, where do you want to go? 430 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: Say Okay, I've booked this place. It looks really great. 431 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: You know that there's extra cellers in the menu. There 432 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: are some Lena options like take control and book a 433 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: restaurant yourself, choose them and yourself. Don't let somebody else 434 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: order for you. If your goal is not to drink 435 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: or not to eat alcohol, tell that person as soon 436 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: as you get there. 437 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 2: Take control of that. 438 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: Environment and your choices rather than just a allowing these 439 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: choices and these things to happen. Because you have to remember, 440 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: the average person in Australia is overweight to obese. So 441 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: if you're going to let the average person book a 442 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: restaurant order for you, you know, try to help you 443 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: out on your journey, that's probably not going to happen 444 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: because the average Australian isn't actually making great nutritional choices 445 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: to impact your journey. So it does come back to 446 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: a little bit of empowerment and why I always think 447 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: it's a really good idea to work with a coach, 448 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: particularly if you ask someone that tends to self sabotage 449 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: yourself or be a little bit more of that victim 450 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: to your food environment. But the first thing I always 451 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: say to my clients is take control of the situation 452 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: as much as possible, make as many decisions as you can, 453 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: and you're going to leave that situation or that social 454 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: occasion feeling so much better in yourself. 455 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 2: Sure you can eat a couple of chips. 456 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: Sure you can have a few burgers, not a few burgers, 457 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: a burger, but a burger. 458 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 2: But at least you can leave feeling really empowered. 459 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: To you know, I had the burger and I still 460 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 1: feel great, Versus I had the burger and two wines, 461 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 1: ed a bit of Guylie Brett and some chips, and 462 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: now I feel awful. So it's getting out of that 463 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: all or nothing mindest and making some empowering choices that 464 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 1: take you closer to your goal rather than being really 465 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: good for three days and then derailing for another two days. 466 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 3: True, true, And we were gonna just we are gonna 467 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 3: that's nice. We are going to discuss in much more 468 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 3: detail other psychological tricks and tips to take control of 469 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 3: your food environment and your body and your weight and 470 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 3: how to break that diet cycle coming up in a 471 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 3: couple of weeks, so check out the nutrition couch dot 472 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,160 Speaker 3: com for details of those seminars. And the other one 473 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 3: we were doing is eating for Best Self, which will 474 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 3: detail in a couple of minutes. But onto other exciting 475 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 3: topics and burgers to chicken snitties. Now, I who's not 476 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 3: partial to a chicken sisel. 477 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: You're not ausy if you're not, you know, yeah, Like, clients. 478 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 3: Are always pretty shocked when I'll say that one of 479 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: the best options that are pubb is the schitzl. 480 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 4: They're horrified. They're like, how can you be saying that, 481 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 4: And I'm like, well. 482 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 3: Just not the whole thing. Well, it depends out big 483 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 3: it is exactly. Of course chicken breast would be better. 484 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 3: Of course a grilled fish would be better. But if 485 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: it means my client's having you know, a servative leap 486 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 3: of not leating but protein and a salad, you know, 487 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 3: obviously not with the fries, I would certainly rather that 488 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 3: because I think the other aspect is having something that 489 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 3: you enjoy eating. Whereas if you go to a pub 490 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,959 Speaker 3: or a restaurant and you order something that's perceived as 491 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 3: healthy but don't enjoy it, I tend I find it 492 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 3: defeats the purpose people keep eating. So I definitely buy 493 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 3: schnitzels each week for my family. Now, in an ideal world, 494 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 3: perhaps you would crumb them. But what I will draw 495 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 3: it everyone's attention is that if you crumb with say 496 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 3: a pancoa or a white crumb, or even a crumb 497 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 3: from the supermarket. If you look at the ingredient list 498 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 3: of that crumb, it's not overly good. Like sure, if 499 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 3: you blitz your own nine grain or sweeling bread and. 500 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 4: Do a crumb that way, it's better. 501 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 3: But the crumb we generally reach for Panco or the 502 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 3: pre mixed multi grain one, it's not that great. So 503 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 3: you don't get that many extra bonus points for crumbing 504 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 3: yourself unless you are using a really good quality bread 505 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 3: to crumb, and let's be honest, not all of us 506 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: have that time all the time. So I wanted to 507 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 3: chat because a couple of my clients, when I'd sent 508 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 3: them information on the better options at supermarkets, they were 509 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 3: really surprised that some were actually quite good and then 510 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 3: some were horrific. So I thought, I use Schitzels myself, 511 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 3: usually once a week for the kids. If it's for 512 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 3: Chris and I will go and get a proper butcher one. 513 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 3: But certainly I put them sometimes in the lunch box, 514 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,919 Speaker 3: you know, like cut My kids don't like sandwiches, so 515 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 3: I find that if they have a nice piece of 516 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 3: chicken breast obviously with a nice cube. 517 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 4: It's a really filling, high protein. 518 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 3: Lunch option, and certainly for anyone listening with teenagers trying 519 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 3: to fill them up, this is a great way to 520 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: give them something substantial and protein in the lunch box. 521 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 4: But the key is to find the right type. So 522 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 4: I wanted to talk through that. 523 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 3: So the most important thing when you are looking at 524 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 3: kind of crumbed even fish, is the same kettle of 525 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 3: fish is the same situation, is the percentage of chicken 526 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 3: or fish in that product. And you will be horrified 527 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 3: to find that some of the crumbed options that supermarkets 528 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 3: can go down to as low as forty percent chicken, 529 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 3: so less than half in the product that you're buying. 530 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 3: And often the kids type products, the fingers and things 531 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 3: that are much much lower percentages of chicken. So I personally, 532 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 3: I am trying to find something that's over seventy percent. Now, 533 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 3: Leanne and I have previously mentioned the Woolies' breasts that 534 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 3: are in the frozen section, and there is a couple 535 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 3: there that upwards of eighty percent chicken, but they're not 536 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 3: necessarily the full schnitzel experience, so they're okay if you 537 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 3: like them. 538 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 4: There's certainly great quality. 539 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 3: There's a marinated one and then a light crumb which 540 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 3: comes in over eighty percent chicken, which are outstanding, but 541 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 3: for kids or yourself, you might find them a bit 542 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: light on in terms of they're not quite the same 543 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 3: quality or taste and texture of a schnitty. So these 544 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 3: are my favorite ones and then also the ones to 545 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 3: be a little bit careful of. And this is actually 546 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 3: the one that I myself buy because I was so 547 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 3: shocked that it was so high. So the one I 548 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 3: get now, this is not in the frozen section, this 549 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 3: is in the fresh section, but the Coles Free Range 550 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 3: Top Proved Chicken sits all four hundred grams, which retails 551 00:23:56,520 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 3: at twelve dollars, is seventy two percent chicken, which is 552 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 3: incredibly high, and they're very tasty. My kids love them, 553 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 3: and I'm happy nutritionally. 554 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 4: With seventy percent. 555 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 3: I think that's a pretty good product, particularly if you 556 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 3: don't have that time to go and sort of blitz 557 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 3: the nine grain bread and do your own. The next 558 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 3: one that are actually pretty good. 559 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 4: Stagles is that night the lily tail. 560 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 2: The lily tale ones. 561 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,479 Speaker 3: That look healthy are actually less than the coals at 562 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: sixty eight percent, so they're okay. But the other one 563 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 3: for any Costco shoppers, and I know that there's plenty 564 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 3: of people who love shopping at Costco. The stegles kinwar 565 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 3: and wholemeal crumb is also about sixty nine percent chicken. 566 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 3: Now you can get that in like a jumbo bag. 567 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 3: It's quite cost effective for families if you do have 568 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 3: a Costco membership. And again I've been pretty happy with 569 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 3: sort of pretty close to seventy percent chicken. But I 570 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 3: just wanted to highlight some of the other options and 571 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 3: how low they can be, and why it's important you 572 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 3: do that quick scan of your ingredient list and get 573 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 3: the higher amounts, because say, for example, the crumb chicken 574 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 3: nuggets from Coals are just forty seven percent chicken, like 575 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 3: less chicken than it's meant to be, So that's certainly 576 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:07,719 Speaker 3: not a good idea for the kids. 577 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 4: And then the other ones. 578 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 3: I wanted to check lean with the chicken dinosaurs, because 579 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 3: I have got so many clients or even friends who 580 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 3: feed chicken dinosaurs to the kids, and that's They're a 581 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 3: real product that have been marketed to young families. But 582 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 3: I'm thinking they're about fifty percent from memory, I'm just 583 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,239 Speaker 3: going to do a quick little search. But yeah, so 584 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,640 Speaker 3: that's what you're looking for. Seventy percent chicken minimum if 585 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: you want to push it. The Woolies ones in the 586 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 3: black box have got a bit more, but yeah, anything 587 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 3: under fifty or even sixty is just unacceptable as a 588 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 3: protein rich food. You're paying for far more batter and 589 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 3: crumb than you are chicken. So basically the lower down 590 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: on the ingredient list is the chicken or the meat. 591 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 3: They would say lasagna the worst the product is. So 592 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 3: that quick scan and how much chicken will give you 593 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 3: a really good idea of some quick and easy options 594 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 3: for busy families. 595 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think the kicker will be from a 596 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: budgeting perspective, up the price. But I'm going to assume 597 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: that the ones with the lower maps of chicken breast, 598 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: so you know, under sixty percent forty seven percent, like 599 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: you mentioned, they're obviously going to be cheaper, right, because 600 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,719 Speaker 1: chicken is a lot more expensive than what you know, 601 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: crumbing and batter or a bit of flour and that 602 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: sort of thing is So it is kind of that 603 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: jogger where you are paying more for the better quality ones, 604 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: but you're also getting more chicken at the end of day, 605 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,239 Speaker 1: so it is a better quality product. It will be 606 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: more expensive, but it's that trade off between you want 607 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: more protein because it's going to be better for your 608 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 1: lead muscle mass. 609 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 2: You know, we're talking for adults. If it was for kids, 610 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 2: it's not to. 611 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: Me, it's not so much of an issue because a 612 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: chicken nuggets a chicken nugget at the end of the day. 613 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: But I think for adults it is better to get 614 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: the higher quality source of protein and a little bit, 615 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of the leaner protein, and 616 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 1: the better type of crumb if you can. Like you 617 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: mentioned the stagles, one has a bit of a quinoa 618 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 1: sort of coating on it, which is going to be 619 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: a little bit better than just using a. 620 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 2: Bit of like white bread crumbing on it. 621 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 3: As well, fifty one percent of dinosaurs, so there are 622 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,959 Speaker 3: certainly better options for the kids, like fifty I wouldn't 623 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 3: buy fifty percent for fish or chicken. I'm wanting at 624 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 3: least sixty and trope leg seventy. So unfortunately the tempera 625 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 3: dinosaurs are sort of half better half chicken. So there's 626 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 3: definitely better options there. And you know, if you do 627 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,359 Speaker 3: have a bit of time and you want to do 628 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: your own, no problem. You know, get tenderloins, get breastpints 629 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 3: on sale. The key is to blitz your sort of 630 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 3: hard bread multi grain we love the most, or even 631 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 3: a whole meal if you've got leftover the soylin crumb 632 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 3: in my book The Pery in our book The Perry Plan, 633 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 3: you've got a soy linseed crumb schnitzel in there if 634 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: you want the recipe, and that is gold standard versus 635 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 3: say a panco or a blitzed crumb that you can 636 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 3: find in supermarkets. But yeah, definitely for kids there are 637 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 3: better options than say, dinosaurs, which are down around that 638 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 3: fifty percent chicken. 639 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 2: Alrighty. 640 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: And then moving from all things chicken, nuggies and snitties, 641 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: we're talking about protein powder. So a listener question is 642 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: I haven't used protein powder before, Do I need it? 643 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 2: And should I take it? 644 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: So it's a great question, Susie, and we do know 645 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: that we've got our beautiful range of protein powder. We 646 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: sell that at designed by a dietitians, some new little company. 647 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 2: We're very proud of it. 648 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,239 Speaker 1: We've got two blends of Women's Blend and the Pre 649 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: and Probody blend. So if you guys are new to 650 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: listening to the podcast, head to Design by Dietitians dot 651 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: com and check out our narrowsh range of protein powders. 652 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: But to answer our listener question, a protein powder is 653 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: not for everybody, is certainly not needed in the diet, 654 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 1: but it can give a very easy and convenient boost. 655 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 1: Do I use protein powder myself? Yes, I'm a busy mum. 656 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: The protein powder that I use is safe for breastfeeding. 657 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 1: It's the pre probotic range from our Design by Dietitian range. 658 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: But I don't use it every day and I don't 659 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: need it. It's just for me more of a convenient option. 660 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 1: If I'm running out the door, I want to take 661 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: a bit of a SMOOTHI or something with me in 662 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: the car. Some days I might run out of Greek 663 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 1: yogat Some days I might just be over you know, 664 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: some days I might want to use a bit of 665 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: Greek yogurt and protein powder together. So I use it 666 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: to sort of sweeten and flavor some of my recipes 667 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: as well, But I generally say susie, particularly for my 668 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: clients I typically don't like. I can't remember the last 669 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: time I used protein powder in a lunch or in 670 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: dinner recipe, but I will use it, i'd say forty 671 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 1: to fifty percent of the time in breakfast style recipes 672 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: or as a post workout style option. So where you're 673 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: not able to eat that recommended twenty to thirty grams 674 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 1: of protein in a meal, we might be using protein 675 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: powder to just boost the overall protein content of a meal. 676 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: Say you were someone that loved a bowl of cereal 677 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: in the morning, and your cereal I don't know as 678 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: a serf, might have about four grams of protein, and 679 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: then you add a cup of milk into that. A 680 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: cup of milk might have between sort of six to 681 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: eight grams of protein. Really, depending on the type of 682 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: milk you're using, plant based milk, it might have you know, 683 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: only zero to one grams of protein in it. So 684 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: you might have on average maybe say five to ten 685 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: grams of protein in a bowl of cereal. When the 686 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: goal is fat loss or maintaining your lean muscle mass. Ideally, 687 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: healthy adults what a minimum of twenty grams up to 688 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: thirty to thirty five grams per meal, depending on your 689 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: individual requirements. So I don't use a full server of 690 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: protein powder when I'm using it to improve the nutritional 691 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: composition of a meal, I might use a half scoop 692 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: or a three quarter scoop, or maybe just ten grams 693 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: if I've also got a bit of grick yogurt and 694 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 1: milk in that recipe as well. So I'm just using 695 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: enough protein powder to get my client up to about 696 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: twenty five to thirty grams in that recipe or in 697 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: that meal, and then I'm pretty happy with the composition 698 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: of that from a fat loss perspective or from a 699 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: building or maintaining lean muscle perspective. So I really don't 700 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: use it at lunch or dinner. I don't ever give 701 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: clients a protein shake just as a snack. I know 702 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people do that, and there's nothing wrong 703 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: with that, but I prefer my clients to eat their protein. 704 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: I find it a lot more filling and same deal. 705 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: I don't use a protein shake as breakfast. It's not breakfast, 706 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: it's not enough calories, it doesn't have the complete nutritional 707 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 1: profile that we want. I use it as part of 708 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: a breakfast recipe, but I don't use it in replacement 709 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: of a breakfast. Put it that way. So there's sort 710 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: of my indications where I would use a protein powder 711 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: if the client's not able to meet the twenty to 712 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: thirty grams of protein in a meal. And also the 713 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: other one is susie if they're working out at random times, 714 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: Like I've got one lovely client of mine who lives 715 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: on a farm, and sometimes just due to her like 716 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: her work hours, sometimes she works out at like eleven am. 717 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,479 Speaker 1: Sometimes she works out at about four pm. So the 718 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 1: timing of the workouts and she does quite heavy like 719 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: cross bit style workouts where we need to get in 720 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: a really good post workout fuel for her within about 721 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: an hour of finishing working out. So if she finishes 722 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: a workout at say four thirty five, but by the 723 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: time she gets the kids home, she cooks dinner, dinner's 724 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: on the table. Sometimes that's not till seven, so she 725 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: needs to have something. It's too long a wait before 726 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,479 Speaker 1: she can actually get in some proper fueling at dinner. 727 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 1: So we'll build in a little bit of Say we 728 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: might give her like a high protein yoga and a 729 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: couple of dates or something. We might do a berry 730 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: based smoothie with a bit of protein powder and a 731 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: bit of milk in there, and maybe some hemp seeds 732 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: or something a little bit of extra fat or something 733 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 1: just to tie her over until that next meal and 734 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: she can fuel properly in that next meal. So that's 735 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: probably the other indication I would recommend using something like 736 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: a protein powder if you do have random workout times 737 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: where you might finish work quite early, head home, have 738 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: dinner with a family, then go for your workout at 739 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: say eight pm at the gym, and by the time 740 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: you get home at nine o'clock, you might not go 741 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: to bed till ten thirty eleven if you're a bit 742 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: of a late night owl, but you want to get 743 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: something into fuel yourself after that work so something like 744 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: a light of smoothie using a bit of protein powder 745 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: in it, or stirring a bit of protein powder into 746 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: some yogurt because you know a standard tubby yogurt might 747 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: be eight grams of protein. You again want to get 748 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: that up to about twenty grams to enable your muscles 749 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: to be able to get in enough protein to support 750 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 1: that big workout that you did. So that's with the 751 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: third indication where I would use a protein powder or 752 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: recommend it if the timing of your workouts doesn't support 753 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: coming home and eating a proper balanced meal, you're more 754 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: looking for a bit of a snack afterwards, and that 755 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: snack what you've got is enable to meet those kind 756 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: of higher protein requirements post training, if the goal is 757 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: to build some lean muscle mass. What about Ususie do 758 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: you recommend protein powder for your clients? 759 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 4: I have two scenarios. 760 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 3: If my clients love a shake or smoothie for breakfast, 761 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 3: I would definitely incorporate it there I find people kind 762 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 3: of use it or they don't, but where I will 763 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 3: start to introduce it. If I've got clients who don't 764 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 3: love protein yogurt or for example, like coconut yogurt, and 765 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 3: I'm not getting enough protein at snacks, I will get 766 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 3: them sometimes to add it into that. So I had 767 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 3: a good friend of mine, actually she's only tiny, and 768 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 3: she's vegetarian, not vegan, but she's has been using coconut yogurt. 769 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 4: She likes it, So I got her just to. 770 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 3: Bump her protein up by adding a bit when she 771 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 3: had that as a snack. So they're kind of the 772 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 3: two scenarios. I think as we learn more and more 773 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 3: about the protein requirements of women increasing as they move 774 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 3: through their forties and fifties, it will become a product 775 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 3: that people are more interested in because we're learning more 776 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 3: about the metabolic benefits of reaching those protein targets and 777 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 3: prevent muscle mass loss and almost preventing weight game over 778 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 3: time thanks to helping reduce carbohydrate intake. So I think 779 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 3: it is absolutely a growth area for women as we 780 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 3: move through those different age bands. But yet they're the 781 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 3: two scenarios which I tend to turn to. 782 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 2: It all right, Susie, want to aboup up the potty. 783 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: We just wanted to took you through our new live 784 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: webinar which is coming up, so it will be at 785 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 1: seven thirty pm at Sydney time, so AEDT on the 786 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 1: seventh of March.
