83. I cut out chocolate and here's what happened! š± The consequences of cutting out soul foods
Bit of a podcast hiatus, but Iām back! āš½ This episode is about chocolate!ā¦
Kidding obviouslyā¦ I do love chocolate, but this episode is more about why cutting out the foods you love is the WORST way to get the body you want. Itās a cautionary tale about what happens when I cut out the food I love - CHOCOLATE, to show anyone that is currently going down that road why itās actually not going to help you with your body composition goals at all.
In this episode I want to take you back in time to tell you about my own experience when I was in my dieting and restricted era. You might look at me nowadays and think that Iāve got it all together when it comes to eating food guilt and shame free, confident in the gym and stuff, but I definitely didnāt used to be that way.
I used to be TERRIFIED of eating more food. I had the WORST relationship with food, and a lot of the things I was doing I didnāt even realise were cockblocking me from actually achieving my body composition goals.
I thought I had to cut out all of these foods like carbs, that I had to eat clean, and wasnāt allowed to have a milky coffee if I wanted to get the body I wanted. I thought it was my lack of willpower and discipline that kept me from reaching the body I wanted. What I didnāt realise is I was missing vital pieces in the puzzle and THAT was the real reason why I wasnāt seeing the results I wanted in my body.
SO this is why I wanted to tell you about my dieting era, with all of the rules and restrictions, so that anyone that currently has ANY rules and restrictions in their diet realises they need to change their strategy because it is INEFFECTIVE.
