  I am really excited and pleased this question has come up because your body is a complex mechanism. Its not just what you eat that is important but also when you eat as your body clock, metabolism and digestion must all work together. For decades we have all been told that weight gain and dietary linked diseases have all been at the hands of what we ate and the imbalance in calories consumed verses calories burnt. What scientists are finding now is that the timing of when we eat is also an important influence on health. Its not just what you eat but when you eat that matters.

Today's episode is a solo episode where the purpose is to give you back the power when it comes to choosing and eating food. I don't believe there are good or bad foods,  all foods play an important role and once we have the understanding around how they are made and marketed I believe we can make more informed decisions on what we want to consume. Food should not be something that makes us fearful or feel shame, as long as we are fueling our bodies with sufficient whole foods then I do not see how soul foods can't be an important part of our lives too.    March's Offer: Not only for this month but the foreseeable future The Zesty Life is teaming up with Dr. Nick Fuller and the Interval Weight Loss program to offer you a free first month on the IWL Program!

Are you an emotional eater? For many of us the answer is yes. We eat when we are sad, lonely, feeling unloved or even bored. These practices, in the moment, can make us feel good and yet after we have finished our pizza, ice cream or block of chocolate we generally feel worse. Which leads to more binging and feeling terrible. In this week's episode I am talking all about emotional eating and giving you the understanding and tools to better overcome these urges and better connect to your emotions.  I really hope you get a lot of value out of this episode.    WIN! Want to win a Limited Edition ‘Stay Zesty' Glitter Tshirt?

We are all sold quick fixes to reach our health goals or motivate and inspire big change in our lives, but these don't ever give us results that last. Yes, you may reach your weight loss goals, have more energy for a while or be able to preform the specific routine or skill you were chasing down but unless we take back our own power and reconnect back to ourselves and create sustainable health change then it is all really money lost and time wasted.  In this episode I am talking about the health rut I am currently in and how all these quick fixes are calling to me at the moment. But I know these hack and challenges don't work. So I am giving 6 steps to help you get out of your rut and create sustainable change that you can translate into habits for the future and a long happy and healthy life.  I really hope you enjoy this episode.    WIN! Announced on the first Monday of every month, one lucky winner will receive a Limited Edition ‘Stay Zesty' Glitter Tshirt.
