In today’s episode, we discuss the challenges of maintaining reasonable nutrition when life throws unexpected curveballs. From dealing with family emergencies, quick trips, and navigating traveling for work, we chat all about how to stay on track—or give yourself grace when you can't. With personal real-life scenarios and practical advice, we emphasize the value of practicing maintenance along the way and being honest with yourself about what you can handle during certain periods of time.
We also discuss traveling for work - for some, this is their lifestyle, and with it comes the need for certain guardrails and strategies. We chat about how to maintain healthy habits while traveling for work and the importance of preparation, flexibility, and mindful decision-making when faced with the temptations and obstacles that come with being on the road.
“It's okay to just bring yourself to maintenance for a while and forget about fat loss.”

“There will always be a little bit of resistance...but there are better times than others.”
