AI Takeaways

Recovering from COVID-19 can take time, and it's important to listen to your body and give yourself the necessary rest and care.

When dealing with cravings for high-sugar foods, it's important to practice moderation and mindfulness. Adding the desired food to a larger, more satisfying meal can help prevent overeating.

Choosing the right trainers for the gym depends on individual preferences and needs. While some people prefer running shoes, others opt for trainers with more support and stability.

Inconsistent menstrual cycles can make it challenging to track weight fluctuations. It's important to focus on overall health and well-being rather than solely relying on scale weight.

MCT oil is not necessary for everyone and its health benefits are not well-established. It's important to be mindful of the calorie content and consider other sources of energy and nutrition.

Complimenting strangers and finding joy in mundane tasks can have a positive impact on overall well-being and create meaningful connections with others.

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to this episode of the ESG Fitness Podcast. I have Maureen and Tony with me.
0:06.9	Maureen, have you recovered from the COVID? The COVID. Yes and no. Like I'm so much better,
0:15.4	but I still have like lingering congestion and a cough. A bit of a tickle. Yeah. It is going around again. Oh my God, it's rampant.
0:25.6	And I mean like no exaggeration. I was so sick. Like some people said, oh, I wouldn't even be
0:31.0	bothering intestine. Like now I just go about my business. I was like, I was not fit to go about
0:35.5	my business. Like I was dead to the world. Like I was. I think I think that's the thing now. I was like, I was not fit to go about my business. Like, I was dead to the
0:38.2	world. Like, I was, I think, I think that's the thing now. Because if you, when was the last vaccine that you had? Oh, God, probably last year. Exactly. So, like, if you get it now, it can be really quite bad. And obviously, it's always me taking a bit, isn't it? So I just feel like if you get right after you've had had a vaccine, you probably not going to get it as bad. Well, no. The first time I got it, I had had two vaccines
0:59.2	and I was like, whoa, like so sick. Because I'm always like, I'm like, it's really weird
1:05.5	that I've not had it, touch word. And other people never had COVID. Yeah, claim to fame right um but people are like oh
1:15.1	you probably had it you just didn't know and I'm like of you know most of the people I know
1:18.9	that have had it like oh I think you know and I'm I am one to moan when I'm not on well so
1:25.2	like we would all know we We'd all know. Everybody
1:29.7	listening to the podcast would know four weeks. So, yeah. Anyway, how are you, Tony? Yeah, I'm
1:38.5	good. Yeah, all, all okay. All COVID free. All COVID free. So that's good. Yeah. Good. All right. Should we get on with the question? We shall. Okay. I find that if I have high sugar foods like chocolate or biscuits, I find it really hard to rein the impulse to eat more junk. In fact, I can never just stop at one biscuit, almost always spiral into eating
2:02.1	more than I should. I know that we are striving for moderation, but I keep repeating the same old
2:07.3	pattern. Is it ever helpful to just ban a certain food from your diet to avoid this?
2:14.1	I honestly couldn't think of anyone I know but I suited to answer this the morning.
2:19.9	I don't think banning any certain food from your diet is of any good
2:24.0	because it's just not practical.
2:25.4	And like if you like chocolate or you like biscuits,
2:28.1	like God, life would be very dull if you can't include a bit of chocolate
