The Optavia® diet gets some women great results, but at what cost? Today I'm joined by Alizabeth who is an ex-Optavia® coach, she initially went through the program, lost over 100lbs, and then was recruited to become a coach blinded by the dream of financial freedom. She's now pulling back the curtain to the diet in this tell-all episode.

Today's solo episode is a review of the Optavia diet (formerly Medifast), a 30-year-old diet that, surprisingly, has stood the test of time. I unpack everything from the dangerously low calorie intake and the peddling of diets to teenagers, to the devastating correlation between restrictive food practices, ignoring the body's internal cues and disordered eating.   Thanks for listening!

I am the third son of three boys born in 1961 (the three youngest in diapers at the same time). We were a typical family and as we grew my mother really became a great cook. Her specialties were homemade breads, cookies, cakes, pies, and our favorite Swedish Tea Rings. Most of the time what she produced would only last a few hours unless she hid them high in the pantry. There was always plenty to eat and being the little chunky one, seconds were normal and always room for dessert. We were always active playing outside from sunup to sundown, riding our bikes, playing wiffle ball in our backyard "stadium", and "kick the can" until it was time for bed. As I got older, we got involved in organized sports. In the fall we played football, in the winter it was basketball, and then throughout the summer baseball. In the 8th grade I was introduced to weight training for football which became my favorite sport. I do remember my mom commenting at times that I needed to watch what I ate (portion control) and then offer me a piece of pie or whatever she had made for dessert. There was always dessert! Everything changed in my mid-twenties when my metabolism changed. I was putting on a few extra pounds even though I remained highly active with cycling, golfing, and adult fast pitch softball. I was introduced to my first weight loss program through a friend, and I only remember it was a type of tea product (I don't remember the name of the company). That didn't work and soon after was introduced to Body Wise, which didn't work. Tiring of MLM's I began to explore other diets, here are a few.... Beverly Hills Diet, Fit for Life, South Beach Diet, Atkins, Keto, and the entire store-bought shakes and bars. Then I got married and the next thing you know I'm over 300 lbs. A friend began posting on Facebook some amazing results that he was having (dropping 100+ pounds) and I gave him a call. I was desperate and needed help, so I began doing the Medifast program through Take Shape for Life. In 4 1/2 months I dropped 85 pounds and began coaching others to do the same. Not only was I losing weight I was creating a good income, enough to consider giving up my remodel business. Thank God I didn't. After a year of eating 5 of the soy-based meals per day I began to suffer debilitating gallbladder attacks. Soon after that I had to stop the program all together, have my gallbladder removed and the weight came right back. Years later I met up with good friends Stephen and Rachel Bush and she told me how she had just lost 50+ pounds doing IF. I was intrigued and they told me to read TFH and that changed the game!! I started on 8/1/22 and within 3 weeks I was down 15 lbs. I am now down 25 lbs. in 6 weeks. What I love about IF is the freedom and the guiltless ability to tweak things as you go and really learn how your body responds to what I put or not put into it. Oh, and the greatest thing is that it is free and we're saving money at the grocery store!!! The Fasting Highway News.

If you look up Optavia® on the internet, you'll be shown a program that seems to have a lot of positive results and is rooted in science. However, as you remove the layers of clever marketing and coaches raving about the products (as they seek greater commission), we can see through the matrix to what this diet really is… a dangerous and expensive starvation program.As always, here is my honest and unfiltered, dietitian review. To apply for the Nourished & Free group coaching program and receive a free private training,  visit yatesnutrition.com/applicationFollow along with me on IG @yatesnutrition

Millions of people across the world struggle with weight management. The statistics around obesity and weight gain are staggering, especially right now. 47% of women and 55% of men reported weight gain at the start of lock down. The number of states reporting obesity at 35% or higher doubled at the beginning of the pandemic. Now, our wellness routines look very different than they did before this started.   Much of the difficulty in weight management for everyone is rooted in psychology – our mindset, our habits, and body positivity. Research has shown that getting our mindset right is one of the most significant factors in long-term implementation and maintenance of healthy habits. A positive mindset leads to improved adoption and adherence of microshifts in our daily life that dramatically impact weight.   Microshifts in our daily routine improve factors like sleep, mood and stress that have a cyclic effect on our weight management journey. These gentle nudges reduce the risk of chronic disease and complications from conditions like diabetes, hypertension and heart disease. New evidence now shows that we can even age in reverse with these simple behavior changes. When you successfully establish routines that work for you rather than against you, the nuances of utilizing macro and micronutrition alongside exercise and stress management seem much more attainable. Dr. Lisa Davis is a Hopkins trained nutritionist in the field of obesity neuroscience. She's an internationally recognized expert in weight management whose work has reached millions across the world including celebrities and high-profile executives. She's a certified nutrition specialist and physician's assistant with extensive experience in clinical medicine and research, focusing on obesity and obesity related comorbidities. She has served as the Vice President of Scientific and Clinical Affairs at MediFast, Chief Nutrition Officer at Terra's Kitchen, and consultant for many nutrition-based startups. Lisa is here today to bring YOU expert knowledge from her incredibly successful nutrition career so that you can begin to understand the psychology of behavior change AND how small, healthy habits can lead to success on your weight management journey.   Vitamin & Me Socials: Vitamin & Me @vitaminandme @jessicakhouston
