Welcome to the Key Nutrition Podcast, your one-stop shop for everything, food, fitness, and mindset.

On today's episode, me and Michelle discussed the diet before the diet.

Do these things before starting a dieting phase.

I think this is very much missed.

A lot of people go into a dieting phase and they got this all or nothing mentality

like the guy going into rehab. I gave the example of myself where you just binge out because

you think you're never going to be able to enjoy food again, which is just your head playing

tricks on you because that's not right. And if you're going to a dieting phase that doesn't allow

you any of your favorite foods, it's probably not the best diet. There are exceptions, things like show prep, specific goal-based things, but as a whole,

mostly as you listen to show, like, you should be going to something where you still can enjoy

your favorite foods in moderation. So we gave five very practical tips. Things I would like you

guys to work on before going into a dieting phase. Have these

things streamlined habitually. You just do them day after day after. And they're not super hard

things. But if you go into it, already having to now track a calorie deficit, get your butt to

the gym and you have none of these habits built, it's not going to be a smooth

ride and you're going to be a little more frustrated with your lack of great results early on.

And so I'm passionate about this message because I've just noticed the clients started doing

these things when they come in. I can really get down to business a lot faster. The results

are more streamlined.

And so give it a listen, guys.

I think you'll enjoy the episode.

I think you'll take away some stuff.
