In this episode of The Wellness Diaries podcast, I explore the nuances of moderation and the 80/20 rule in diet and lifestyle. I discuss how personal interpretations of moderation can lead to dietary confusion and the importance of understanding individual calorie and nutrient needs. I emphasize the variability of what "eating pretty healthy" means to different people and advocates for a personalized, mindful approach to nutrition and lifestyle choices, highlighting the importance of self-awareness and intentionality in achieving wellness goals.
