When you're 330 episodes into a podcast, sometimes it's powerful to revisit where it all began—the heart behind Direction Not Perfection. What has kept this passion going strong for over five years? Growth—yes—but more importantly, consistency in the message:We are turning away from diet mentality and moving toward sustainable, lasting health—both physical and mental—while learning to love and accept ourselves right where we are.One of the foundational concepts I teach—and what inspired the title of my book Direction Not Perfection—is exactly that. I wrote the book because I kept having the same meaningful conversations with clients in my hospital job (fun fact: I worked in both surgical and non-surgical weight loss). These conversations deserved a place to live, so others could benefit too.So what is diet mentality? It's the belief that the next strict plan will be the magic fix. It's the “I'll just get super strict for a few months” mindset. And while that might work short term, it's not sustainable. And if it's not sustainable, it's not success.Long-term success—the kind that's still sticking with you when you're 80—requires sustainable strategies. It means doing the deeper work. It means discovering what you enjoy when it comes to movement and nutrition—not what someone else tells you to do.This is about mindset, resilience, and consistency. The change is in the show up.A quick recap of today's key takeaways:1.   Turn away from diet mentality – There's a better, more sustainable path that ends the yo-yo cycle.2.   Eyes on your own paper – This is your journey. Trust it.3.   Redefine success – Sustainable progress starts with shifting expectations and building confidence through small wins.If this message resonates with you, I'd love to invite you into our Direction Not Perfection: Real Weight Loss for Women After 40 private Facebook community. You'll find free tracking worksheets on my website to help you start practicing different ways to measure progress.Until next time—cheers to health, happiness, and showing up for yourself.———————————————————-About Your Host, Lindsey House:I'm a dietitian, personal trainer, and accountability coach helping individuals break free from all-or-nothing thinking and create sustainable wellness habits.Website → https://www.healthaccountabilitycoach.com Facebook → https://facebook.com/houselifestylesMore Wellness & Mindset Videos:• Emotional Healing with Margie Odom: https://youtu.be/3L1VRGnWdJU• Why Do We Self Sabotage? | Dr. Eliza Kingsford: https://youtu.be/pe6b2kgdeNc• Too Much On Her Plate | Dr. Melissa McCreary: https://youtu.be/PMeMSknHei0

Are you tired of starting over every Monday? Wondering how to build lasting healthy habits that stick—even when life gets chaotic? Then this episode is for you. This week on Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck dives into the transformative journey of the Healthy Vibe Tribe and how 12 weeks of shared goals, weekly check-ins, and community support led to lasting change. Healthy Vibe Tribe member, Shannon, joins Jenn to share how she went from chasing the number on the scale to tuning into how she felt—physically, emotionally, and mentally. They talk about staying on track through travel, social events, and everyday chaos, proving that progress—not perfection—is what matters. Tune in to hear how consistency, community, and a shift in mindset can help you transform from the inside out. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (04:20) The creation of the Healthy Vibe Tribe(10:44) Discussion of the commitment level as a Healthy Vibe Tribe member(13:18) Noticing the transformation in healthy habits over 12 weeks(27:20) The Healthy Vibe Tribe principles made all the difference while traveling(33:37) Making the choice about drinking an alcoholic beverage(37:33) Going forward with the learnings from the Healthy Vibe Tribe(44:38) Tips on making life and health changes on your weight loss journeyKEY TAKEAWAYS:Weekly check-ins and shared goals fostered accountability and motivation, especially during busy times. Instead of fixating on the scale, shift your focus to how you feel—physically and emotionally. While tracking numbers offers helpful structure, lasting results come from staying present, consistent, and committed to progress over perfection.Being part of a supportive community and intentionally planning will help you maintain healthier habits during challenging times like vacations and conferences. Scheduling check-ins, packing snacks, and prioritizing wellness, can help you avoid the typical wellness pitfalls of travel.Transformation takes root when healthy decisions become second nature. This shift fosters a sense of empowerment and often inspires those nearby, creating a ripple effect that encourages collective growth. Consistent choices, made with intention, serve as a quiet but powerful example of what's possible when wellness becomes a way of life.QUOTES: (07:40) “Am I an example or a warning? You get to a point where you have to decide that time is important, and I don't want the quality of the subsequent decades of my life to be different because I kept saying, ‘Next Monday is gonna be the time.'” -  Shannon: Healthy Vibe Tribe Member(21:31) “There's something really powerful about the words we use, not just in terms of lost weight, which many of you listeners know, is like nails on a chalkboard to me. We remove it, we release it.” - Jenn Trepeck(32:22) “But the point is that perfection is not required, and bringing the exercise clothes is still progress over where we've been before.”  - Jenn Trepeck(35:04) “When we start to make quality choices, it inherently invites other people around us to do it too, in a way that's not pushy. Our consistency in healthier choices allows the people around us to adapt.” -  Jenn Trepeck(40:19) “Accountability, even if it looks a little bit different, is keeping the things in place that we know helped us get here.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Want to Jump Into Round 2 of the Healthy Vibe Tribe?

Let's face it - most women struggle with their weight and we've been programmed to think it's harder to get the weight off after a certain age so the process can feel hopeless. But what if there are clues as to why the weight is hanging around that lie in your relationship with food? In this episode, Ashley Fillmore and Dr. Jannine Krause dive into why declining estrogen can trigger carb cravings and binges that may be new behavior for women over 40, or why it brings up old habits you thought you'd let go of. We discuss the frustrating cycle of binge, detox, diet and repeat - failure after failure. We explore food shame and why we keep repeating habits like diving into chips or finding ourselves with chocolate and peanut butter at certain times of the day.

What did you enjoy most about this episode? (https://weightlossmindset.co)Show Notes:Episode Summary:Ever nailed a diet, only to find yourself right back where you started a month later? You're not alone—and it's not because you're lazy or lack willpower. In this episode, Rick dives deep into the real reason most weight loss efforts don't stick: mindset. Forget the fads and quick fixes. These four simple, powerful shifts will change the way you think about weight loss—and help you keep your results for life.Key Takeaways:Stop chasing short-term results. Sustainable change starts when you commit to habits you can stick with for years, not weeks.Master the boring basics. Eating real food, sleeping well, moving your body—these never stop working.Detach your progress from the scale. Focus on consistent actions, not daily fluctuations that mess with your head.Celebrate tiny wins. Reinforcing small, positive actions builds momentum and rewires your brain for success.It's not a willpower problem—it's a thinking problem. Reframe your approach, and the process becomes way more manageable.Consistency beats intensity. If you can't do it for six months, it's not a solution—it's a distraction.If you're tired of starting over, pick one of these mindset shifts and start living it today. And if this episode hit home, don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who's ready to break the cycle too.

Unlock Your Brain to Stop Overeating by attending our upcoming FREE LIVE VIRTUAL EVENT for Women who have a history of all-or-nothing eating and want to Discover THE Science-Based Secret No One is Talking About, But Every Woman Who Wants to Lose Weight for Good Needs to Start Today ==> REGISTER NOW   In this inspiring episode, we welcome Abi back to the show. Abi is 29 and lives in the UK, and previously joined me on the podcast in April 2021, nearly four years ago after graduating from my psychology-based program, Outsmart Overeating.   Growing up, Abi spent her entire life trapped in a cycle of dieting, constantly battling a chaotic relationship with food and her body. But everything changed on the day she searching for an outfit to wear to a celebratory dinner with her boyfriend, and nothing fit.   Despite her frustration, this was a pivotal moment in her transformation. It's the day that led her to lasting weight loss success.   Now, four years post-program, Abi returns to share an update on her incredible journey.   She's no longer haunted by the fear of losing control around food, rarely thinks about meals outside of eating them, and radiates a newfound confidence — boldly rocking a bikini for the first time without a shred of self-consciousness.   For Abi, there was a time when these victories once felt impossible. Like most dieters, she spent her entire life stuck in a relentless loop, obsessively weighing herself five to six times a day.   Today? She doesn't even own a scale.   Tune in to hear how the tools, strategies, and guidance Abi learned in the program released her from the maddening grip of chronic dieting and has empowered with the psychological shifts to live a life where she's in-control, instead of her diet controlling her.   This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's ever felt stuck and hopeless while dieting — Abi's update proves that lasting change is possible.   Connect with Leslie:   • Website • Instagram • Facebook     If you're struggling with emotional, binge, or compulsive eating and you're interested in personalized coaching, apply here.

It seems like almost everyone is taking GLP-1 medications these days to lose weight. Now a couple years after they've been used for this purpose, what do we know? How do we interpret all the headlines about them? Despite how the news makes it sound and what your doctor may have told you, you have options! Tune in to understand more about GLP-1 medications, what Jenn does as a health coach for her clients who are taking them, and how you can naturally support your own GLP-1, empowering you with knowledge and control over your health.Welcome to Salad with a Side of Fries! In today's episode, Jenn dives into the impact of GLP-1 medications on metabolic health. She begins by explaining what GLP-1 is and addresses some of the controversy surrounding celebrities who don't admit to using it for their weight loss. Jenn also uncovers how the secondary benefits of GLP-1 often mislead the public and explores its short term side effects and potential long lasting impacts. She discusses the concept of fat cells having memory, what people can do to support true metabolic health while taking these meds, and shares practical tips for naturally supporting your body's own GLP-1 for long term metabolic health. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) Jenn talks about GLP-1 meds, metabolic health and weight loss(05:07) Defining GLP-1 and how it works in the body(12:05) How the public is misled by the secondary benefits of taking the medication and discussion of side effects(21:08) Being cautious and a discussion of the gut brain connection and malnutrition(26:50) Fat cells have memory, BMI as a metric, and an example of how the Healthy Vibe Tribe brought down blood sugar 70 points for a client(35:10) How to naturally support your GLP-1 and metabolic health(43:53) What about insulinKEY TAKEAWAYS: GLP-1 medications are more openly discussed with more people openly admitting they're taking them. This shift contrasts with the early days when celebrities falsely claimed weight loss was solely due to light exercise, misleading the public and creating unrealistic expectations for weight loss.Jenn criticizes the Super Bowl ad from Hers, which she believes "weaponized diet culture" to promote its version of a GLP-1 medication. She expresses frustration with how marketing continues to exploit societal insecurities around weight, comparing it to the more positive and empowering approaches taken by brands like Dove.While GLP-1 medications can be life-transforming in the short term—reducing weight and alleviating joint pain—there are concerns about their long-term impact. Issues like bone density loss, muscle deterioration, and potential joint problems down the line should be considered. This highlights the importance of being proactive and responsible for your long-term healthWhile taking the medications may seem like the “easy button,” there are other considerations to ensure true health, like the nutrition you provide your body when you do eat and the role supplementation can play. There are nutrition and supplementation choices that can support the body's own GLP-1 production.QUOTES: (04:55) “GLP stands for Glucagon Like Peptide. Glucagon Like Peptide 1 comes from the large bowel, or the colon. It stimulates insulin secretion, suppresses glucagon, supporting blood sugar regulation.” Jenn Trepeck(17:21) “Protein and fiber at every meal makes removing fat, no big deal.” Jenn Trepeck(34:54) “Sometimes while we think this is the easy button, it requires an even more significant commitment to protein, fiber, quality fat, strength training, and a multivitamin to get your micronutrients.” Jenn Trepeck.(40:23) “When we start to understand low glycemic impact nutrition, we're focusing on nutrient dense foods and less processed foods.” Jenn Trepeck(42:35) “ Exercise, sleep, water, food.

Dr. Ginny Trierweiler is a psychologist, author, certified health coach, President and Principle of Slender for Good, and the author of the book titled “Slender for Good after50: Eat More, Stress Less, and Never Diet Again.”    Ginny describes how she had a wake-up call in her 50s when she began struggling with her weight as well as inflammation in her body. This set her on a journey of research and discovery how to nourish her body and activate health and healing from within. Ginny shares her story of working in a nursing home and discovering that many of the patients were only in their 60s and 70s, and had lost everything due to their impaired health, lack of mobility, and inability to care for themselves. This led her to the realization that she was on a trajectory to end up in a nursing home herself if she didn't make major lifestyle changes, beginning with nutrition. She explains how once she began focusing on eliminating junk food from her diet (often referred to as treats), the weight that she struggled with for so long started falling off. As an added benefit, the physical pain and discomfort she dealt with for so long slowly disappeared, her sleep improved, her hot flashes stopped, and her brain fog cleared. That's when she knew she had to share this information with other smart, vibrant women over 40 get wonderful results and help them be slender for good, naturally!

One thing most overlook in working towards sustainable weight loss is the process of building healthier structure. Weight loss isn't always about loss, but rather expansion. Let me teach you how. Growing up, I saw many people attempt weight loss. Some succeeded, at least temporarily, but few paid attention to where the weight came from. Health was reduced to the number glaring back at them from the scale. In those days, health was about weight loss, and weight loss was about all forms of “less.” While both statements have some truth, they're not the whole truth. This is why health can feel so confusing. It's both partially true and incomplete—both this and the opposite of this. Health is best lived at an optimal weight, but weight loss doesn't always lead to health. Likewise, weight loss often involves “less”—but not in the sense of restriction. Instead, it's less in the way of expansion: less energy-draining foods, less resistance, less working against your body. It might sound contradictory, as if I'm speaking out of both sides of my mouth. But when you begin to understand that it's not one or the other—but a combination of what we do and what we're working against—you start to make meaningful progress toward your goals. At the end of the day, all goals align with the most critical element of health: the expansion and protection of energy. When you expand your energy, you create healthier structures, and healthier structures produce healthier functions. This aligns with the biological principle that energy builds structure, and structure determines function. In the context of weight loss, this means we should focus on building and maintaining healthy structures—like bone density, organ health, and muscle mass—rather than fixating on the number on the scale. Your optimal weight is not just about reaching a specific number; it's about achieving, retaining, and supporting a body made of healthy, resilient tissues. Don't get so consumed by weight loss that you overlook the most critical aspect of achieving a healthy weight: the kind of tissue you're losing in the process.

Do you struggle to lose weight and keep it off? It turns out, fat cells actually have a memory that can keep weight off after rapid weight loss!In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck sits down with Professor Dr. Ferdinand von Meyenn, assistant professor at the Institute of Food, Nutrition, and Health at ETH Zurich, to explore his study with the intriguing finding that fat cells encode a memory which influences the ability to maintain weight loss and therefore impacts metabolic health. They delve into his groundbreaking research on bariatric patients and mice, uncovering how fat cells retain memory and can continue to impact the body long after weight loss. Dr. von Meyenn breaks down the role of epigenetics, why GLP-1 medications don't provide long-term effects, and the importance of proper nutrition and lifestyle when losing weight and keeping it off. They also discuss the hip-to-waist ratio versus BMI and why prevention is the most powerful tool for long-term well-being. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (05:27) Ferdinand's research on fat cell memory and metabolic health(09:21) Research findings on bariatric patients and experiments on mice(17:28) Ferdinand defines epigenetics and GLP's don't give long-lasting effects(26:06) Losing weight too quickly and the set point concept(35:00) Weight loss is good, but proper nutrition is critical and discussion of adiponectin(38:27) Excess energy and body fat, the hip to waist ratio, and being overweight, and the long-term consequencesKEY TAKEAWAYS: Even after significant weight loss, an individuals' fat cells retain molecular changes (altered RNA and epigenetic markers) associated with their previous obese state. These long-lasting molecular markers in the fat cells predispose the body to regain weight as it responds more readily to an obesogenic environment.Weight loss significantly improves health, whether in humans or mice. However, fat cells have a form of memory, meaning that even after weight loss, some molecular changes persist. While these changes do not necessarily drive disease, they highlight the importance of sustained weight management strategies.Rapid weight loss, especially with methods like GLP-1 medications, can lead to muscle loss, negatively impacting metabolism and overall health. Since muscles play a key role in energy expenditure and physical stability (especially with aging), preserving muscle mass during weight loss is crucial for long-term success and well-being.QUOTES:         (06:59) “Many times people get bariatric surgery, and despite that being a very significant intervention that restricts how much food you take in, people lose weight for a while, and yet some recover some of that body weight.” Ferdinand von Meyenn(13:46) “The cell predisposes these people to regain weight because their cells are signaling for the obesogenic environment that they became used to.” Jenn Trepeck(24:53) “I think this is connected to the set point idea that people have heard of how we go about ‘losing the weight'. That might play into this too.” Jenn Trepeck.(26:08) “If weight loss is too quick, it is also loss of protein mass, basically of muscle mass and that is really problematic.” Ferdinand von Meyenn(32:43) “If we build lean muscle mass over time, removing fat over time, giving the body time to adapt to this metabolically healthier environment, there's the possibility of easier maintenance.” Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramNutrition Nugget: Minnesota Starvation ExperimentGUEST RESOURCESLaboratory of Nutrition and Metabolic Epigenetics - WebsitevonMeyenn BlueSky - Social MediavonMeyenn Lab BlueSky - Social MediaMeyenn lab -  XFerdinand - XFerdinand von Meyenn - LinkedInGUEST BIOGRAPHY: Ferdinand von Meyenn has been Assistant Professor of the Institute of Food Nutrition and Health at the ETH Zurich since January 2019.Ferdinand studied Biochemistry at the TU Müchnen, Germany, before moving to ETH Zürich for his PhD to study metabolism and type-2 diabetes. After graduating, he joined Prof Wolf Reik at the Babraham Institute in Cambridge, UK, investigating epigenetic mechanisms during development and ageing. In 2017 he joined King's College London as a Group leader and Research Fellow. Then, in 2019, he moved to ETH Zurich, where he was appointed Assistant Professor of Nutrition and Metabolic Epigenetics. His research focuses on the relationship between nutrition, metabolism and the epigenome, aiming to contribute to developing novel strategies to combat obesity and metabolic disease.

Do you ever find yourself asking why fat loss feels so much harder for you than it does for other people? You might be wondering if your hormones may be contributing to you not hitting your fat loss goals.In this episode, I explore the hormonal influences on weight loss, focusing on three key hormones: cortisol, insulin, and estrogen. You'll learn about their roles, how they function, and the lifestyle changes you can make to manage them effectively for better fat loss and body recomposition results.Tune in to find out how to work with your hormones rather than against them to achieve sustainable health and wellness.

In this episode of Until It's Done, Dana sits down with Dr. Matthea Rentea, a board-certified Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine physician, for an in-depth conversation on weight management. They discuss common challenges patients face when trying to lose weight, including metabolic adaptations, plateaus, and what it truly means to build a sustainable, healthy lifestyle for long-term success. Disclaimer: When discussing sleeve gastrectomy (bariatric surgery), Dr. Rentea refers to the hunger hormone ghrelin decreasing by 90% post-surgery. Any mention of growth hormone in this context was unintentional. About Dr. Matthea Rentea: Dr. Matthea Rentea is the founder of the Rentea Metabolic Clinic, serving residents of Indiana and Illinois. She is also the host of The Obesity Guide with Matthea Rentea MD, a top-ranked podcast where she compassionately explores chronic weight management and wellness.

Ever feel like you're all in on a new plan—only to hit a busy week, fall off track, and feel like you're starting over again? It's not your fault. Most weight loss advice was never built for physicians with unpredictable schedules, high stress, and zero extra time. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Matthea Rentea, obesity and internal medicine physician, to talk about how to finally make weight loss sustainable—without burnout, restriction, or relying on willpower. We're breaking down: ✅ Why “perfect plans” fail the second life gets busy (and what actually works) ✅ How to eat in a way that feels easy—even on call weeks and post-clinic exhaustion ✅ The mindset shift that makes healthy habits effortless (hint: it's not about discipline) ✅ How to stop the weekend “off track” spiral and build real consistency ✅ The #1 mistake that keeps physicians stuck in yo-yo dieting If you're tired of feeling like weight loss is another full-time job, this episode will change the way you think about food, exercise, and long-term success.
