Podcasts about ultimate weight loss

Change can be intimidating, especially when it involves giving up something you love, like sugar. But what if you could enjoy delicious alternatives without feeling deprived? Today's guest is here to show us just how easy and satisfying it can be.   Chef AJ, a culinary instructor, author, and motivational speaker, is known for her no-nonsense approach to transforming lives through nutrient-dense recipes. On her YouTube show, Chef AJ Live, she offers expert interviews and live cooking demos that educate and inspire.   Her best-selling books, "Unprocessed" and "The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss," are must-reads for anyone embracing a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle. In her latest book, "Chef AJ's Sweet Indulgence: Guilt-Free Treats Sweetened Naturally with Fruit," she shares dessert recipes free from gluten, sugar, added salt, and oil, proving that healthy eating can delight your taste buds.   Her practical advice and vibrant personality have empowered countless people to take control of their health. So stay tuned as we explore her new book and discover the sweet side of healthy living!   “Fruit is to our natural diet throughout human history. It's a whole food. It's found in nature. It has water, fiber, vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, antioxidants, micronutrients. Sugar, whether it's white sugar, brown sugar, cane sugar. These are not whole foods found in nature. So all the fiber, all the nutrients have been stripped, and they really have few to no phytochemicals, antioxidants, and micronutrients. So there's a big difference because one of the things people have to understand is that fiber is only found in plants. It's not found in animal products, and it's not found in processed foods unless it's been added back in. And fiber is the reason that many people that adopt a vegan or whole food plant-exclusive diet can eat what we call ad libitum – as much as we want, as often as we want, whenever we want until comfortably full. Because fiber is what puts the brakes on overeating. And sugar has no fiber but fruit does.”  - Chef AJ   What we discuss in this episode: - Chef AJ's childhood and adult relationship with sweets. - What makes Chef AJ's sweets delicious and healthy? - Fruit-sweetened desserts vs. processed sweetener desserts. - How fiber is integral to prevent overeating. - Retraining your palate. - The link between calorie concentration and dopamine release. - Chef AJ's sweetness scale explained. - How Chef AJ keeps her desserts moist without using oil. - Chef AJ's preferred fruits for naturally sweetening recipes.  - Her favorite recipes and kitchen gadgets.   Resources: - If you purchase Sweet Indulgence by 8/31/24, you'll receive a video of every recipe in the book! - https://sweetindulgence.chefaj.com/ - Website: Chef AJ - https://chefaj.com/ - YouTube: CHEF AJ - YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/CHEFAJ - Instagram: Chef AJ (@therealchefaj) • Instagram photos and videos - https://www.instagram.com/therealchefaj/?hl=en - Facebook: Chef AJ - https://www.facebook.com/chef.aj1/ - Episode 17: Chef AJ Shares How She Lost 50 Lbs and Food Addiction - https://switch4good.org/chef-aj-shares-how-she-lost-50-lbs-and-food-addiction/   ★☆★ Help us remove dairy from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans! ★☆★ https://switch4good.org/dietary-guidelines-for-americans-2025/ ★☆★ Click the link below to support the ADD SOY Act! ★☆★ https://switch4good.org/add-soy-act/ ★☆★ Share the website and get your resources here ★☆★ https://kidsandmilk.org/ ★☆★ Send us a voice message and ask a question.

Summertime is upon us and we know all too well that “losing weight” can quickly become a part of everyone's goals. In this episode, we aren't addressing physical weight loss tips, but taking a deeper dive in how to release and lose the mental weight.    The weight of other people's opinions, fear of failure and self-sabotage has quickly become a weight that we have learned to carry year after year, and for some, even decades. This all stops today. I want to invite you in honest reflection to take a step backwards in finding the root of these “weights” in the desire to release them so you can “live lighter” and with more freedom.    I share an exercise at the end of the episode that will help you recognize, release and lose the mental weight for good. I hope that you will take action in it and begin to see the lasting change take place in your life, from the inside out.    Scriptures referenced:  Ephesians 2:10 AMP Matthew 11:28-30   I pray this blesses you,  Xoxo Coach Joy    Free Discovery Call:  https://calendly.com/joyfulfitlife/30min   Don't live in isolation anymore, join the community: Join the Joyful Fit Life Community: https://joyful-fit-life.mn.co   Get your Gifts:  Check out the “30 Days to Becoming” email: https://www.thejoyfulfitlife.com/39581/30-day-email-landing-page/ Join our FREE FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2486808534941816   Connect with me here: IG: https://www.instagram.com/joyfulfit_life/

What could be a more empowering approach to eating than trusting your own body's signals? Unleashing your intuition when it comes to food? This is what today's episode all about. As a clinical nutritionist and lifestyle medicine specialist, I, Anthony Hatcher, will be your guide as we explore the fascinating world of intuitive eating. We'll dig into how to distinguish authentic hunger signals from deceptive environmental triggers, and how all this interplays with the mind-body connection. The goal? To cultivate a healthier relationship with food and enhance your overall wellbeing.But we won't stop there. We'll take on the often misunderstood practice of calorie-counting and shed light on its pitfalls – mainly, the warped notion it fosters about food being 'good' or 'bad'. Instead, we'll create a mindful approach to eating that values balance and considers your unique lifestyle and health objectives – not a simplistic calorie count. I'll also be stressing the importance of eating in a relaxed state and giving your digestive system its well-deserved breaks – two often overlooked aspects of digestive health.Lastly, we'll tackle the tough topic of food triggers and how to manage them effectively. We'll break down how environmental triggers, boredom, and stress can masquerade as hunger and share strategies on how to handle these feelings without using food as a crutch. More importantly, we'll discuss ways to identify and deal with triggers that lead to emotional eating, ultimately empowering you for body transformation and wellbeing. So tune in, and please, share this enlightening episode with those who might benefit from it.About me&my health up & Anthony Hartcher me&my health up seeks to enhance and enlighten the well-being of others.

Growing up in the fifties and sixties, being overweight as a child was unusual. Yet, for Chef AJ, her struggle with weight was something that started in her youth. Reaching close to 200 pounds, it wasn't until she dealt with a health challenge, that she even considered changing the way she ate. It took someone helping her to understand the connection between what she ate and her health crisis that she was willing to make the change. During this episode of the Health Science Podcast, Dr. Frank Sabatino and Chef AJ talk about healthy weight, food addictions, water-fasting, eating delicious foods and benefits of a plant-based, S.O.S. free diet. http://www.healthscience.org/podcast

So I'm launching a new season of the podcast — with a twist.It's going to have a new name — The Psychology of Weight Loss.Why psychology you ask?Because weight loss is a soft skill where how you behave is way more important than what you know.And behaviour is hard when emotions get in our way.The goods news is we can learn to think greater than our emotions so we don't get derailed on our weight loss journey.I know this first hand.I was an utter failure at this weight loss thing for the first 53 years of my life.And I can also tell you with absolute certainty that if you don't like what you look like, it will negatively impact how you show up in every other area of your life.I finally figured some things out that have allowed me to lose almost 45lbs and get to 9.6% body fat at 57 — an age people think such things are not possible.But here's what makes my approach different from everyone else…* I don't restrict calories (2200/day)* All my meals spark joy* I only do 10 minutes of training a day* I don't go to a gym* I do mostly body weight exercises* I train in the clothes I'm wearing * I don't break a sweat* I don't do cardio* Everything I do is simple * It works no matter where my feet are* I don't take supplements * My only expense is the food I buy* I treat myself every single dayHere is the best part about all those I just listed — it puts me in the 1% of the 1% because I have sustained that success for the last 1217 days.Ideas worth stealing…I am going to use the show to take you inside my head and share how I think about the things that trip most people up.And it won't just be psychology. Habits and mindsets also play a critical role in my success and I will be offering insights on how I have successfully transformed each of those on my journey.Here's a master list of topics I will be sharing insights on…* Psychology * Habit design and development* Mindset design* Languaging - Talking successfully* Systems, frameworks and mental models* False beliefs* Measurement and self-management * Writing for weight loss* Weight loss laws* Simplicity* Continuous self-improvement * Deliberate practice* Neuroplasticity* Decision making* Self-discipline* Resilience/failure recovery* 10-minute training* Sparking joy* Strategies to think greater than your emotionsThere will be plenty of ideas worth stealing.Episode Notes… So let's break down today's show,Here are a few big ideas I talk about that you will want to be listening for, taking notes on and stealing for yourself.* The 20/80 Rule.* Why I am qualified to talk about the psychology of weight loss.* How my failed podcast efforts parallels failing at the weight loss journey.* Explain what a Big Domino Mindset is.* Introduce the phrase “cautious optimism” and explain what it is and why it is important.* Why having a healthy obsession for succeeding at weight loss is essential.* How I landed on the name for the show.* Resource I reference — The Psychology of Money.* Why we have to learn to think greater than our emotions.Enjoy my friend.To thinking greater than your emotions,Dean This is a public episode.

hef AJ has been devoted to a plant-based diet for 43 years. Her background includes being the host of the television series Healthy Living with CHEF AJ which airs on Foody TV. With her comedy background, she has made appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman and more. A chef, culinary instructor and professional speaker, she is author of the popular book Unprocessed: How to Achieve Vibrant Health and Your Ideal Weight, which chronicles her journey from a junk-food vegan faced with a diagnosis of pre-cancerous polyps, to learning how to create foods that nourish and heal the body. Based in Palm Springs, Chef AJ teaches how to create meals to transform health, how to deal with cravings and food addiction and addresses the emotional side of eating. She is the creator of The Ultimate Weight Loss Program, was the Executive Pastry Chef at Sante La Brea Restaurant in Los Angeles, creator of Healthy Taste of LA and the YouTube cooking show The Chef and the Dietitian. Chef AJ holds a certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University and is a member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. Since the start of the pandemic, Chef AJ has added Facebook and YouTube lives to her repertoire as a way to continue to serve her community. Knowing from a young age she didn’t want to consume animals; she was able to adhere to a vegan lifestyle due to her Orthodox Jewish upbringing. She never developed a taste for animals and always had compassion for animals. This compassion was put to the test early in her schooling to become a veterinarian. When asked to prep salamanders for testing, her reaction to the first one prevented her from doing a second one. She absolutely refused to harm the animals. This put an end to her aspirations of becoming a veterinarian. It all began with an Easy Bake Oven Chef AJ got a taste for baking when she received an Easy Bake Oven at the age of seven for Hanukkah. As a self-described fat kid, she loved desserts and loved baking. That was the start of a lifelong passion for baking. A passion that turned into her life’s work. Although fit and slim today, Chef AJ had her own struggles with weight. Reaching 200 pounds at her highest, she was more of a junk food vegan than a plant-based eater.   Realizing that although she was vegan, the way she ate was very unhealthy. After being diagnosed with precancerous growths called adenomatous polyps, Chef AJ knew it was time for a dramatic change.   The change included learning about whole food, plant-based eating while at the Optimum Health Institute. Since that time, Chef AJ has become a force to be reckoned with. A recognized name in virtually every vegan and plant-based circle, you can catch Chef AJ on Facebook and YouTube live weekdays at 11 a.m. Pacific.  https://www.youtube.com/user/therealchefaj Be sure to pick up a copy of her book, The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss: A revolutionary approach to conquer cravings, overcome food addiction, and lose weight without going hungry.  https://amzn.to/3gEgwli

There’s a ton of info out there about keto, intermittent fasting and high intensity interval training … but did you know combining all of this information into one plan can lead to huge results?  Sure, *just* following keto or *just* following intermittent fasting can already help people get the big time results they’re after … but the combo of these approaches, plus adding in only 1-2 HIIT workouts each week can supercharge many people’s fat loss plans! In today’s episode of Chat the Fat we’re going to talk about the Keto, IF and HIIT trifecta, and how using this killer combo can help you reach your goals more quickly! We chat about why keto is great at burning stored body fat Some studies show low calorie diets are just as effective, but we explain why these studies are wrong Adding a proper intermittent fasting routine can ramp up results, but only under certain circumstances - learn these We chat about how using keto & IF together can amplify results Then we review HIIT and how to tie all 3 plans together for amazing results Episode Download: HIIT guide Product Review: Pruvit Keto OS Links Mentioned: Keto Decoded & Fasting Decoded Courses Nissa’s Intermittent Fasting Story Eating Fat is the New Skinny on YouTube  

I never anticipated doing a podcast on this topic.  My focus as a coach is on teaching foodies : HOW to eat: in tune with your body’s hunger and fullness signals, consciously, savoring your food; and  WHY you eat: when your body needs food, which is when you’re hungry, and not to avoid difficult emotions or dealing with our problems I don’t tell you WHAT to eat. That’s because that’s your body’s job. When you listen to it, your body tells you what to eat. Plus most of you already know about nutrition and want to eat a primarily healthy diet.  But a few listeners have asked how I plan my meals. Given that I want to help you develop a peaceful relationship with food and eating, eating well and enjoying your food is a big part of that. And decent meal planning can help. So here it is!  I try not to be one of those podcasters who spends the first 10 or 15 minutes of each episode talking about myself. You have better things to do with your time. But if you want to know how I plan my meals, you need to know something about my life.  The reason for that is that how you plan meals is a personality thing.  We all have different levels of organization, so if what I do doesn’t sound like it can fit in your life, that’s fine.   Listen below to learn how to plan your weekly meals so that you can eat and live deliciously, and save some cash in the process.  Don’t forget to enter the Ultimate Weight Loss for Foodies Giveaway!

Simple steps will set you on the road to ultimate weight loss.Losing weight is tough when you’re used to eating addictive foods like sugar and added fats. You have to rework your regular diet to make any noticeable progress. One of the off putting things about dieting is hunger. Fruits and vegetables are highest in nutrients and lowest in caloric value. The keys to ultimate weight loss include: Commitment. Stick to your plan. Compliance. Follow the guidelines you set for your weight loss. Consistency. Take the correct actions every day. Cooking. Prepare your own nutritious and filling meals. Change. It must be more painful to remain the same than to put in the work to lose weight. Community. Connect with people who support your choices and live healthy lives. Compassion. Don’t beat yourself up as you work on yourself. Start small. Add more fruits and vegetables to your diet. Walk a few more minutes every day. It adds up and can inspire you to make bigger changes. Listen as Chef AJ joins Dr. Pamela Peeke to share secrets for successful weight loss. Sponsor: Smarty Pants Vitamins

Chef AJ's site: EatUnprocessed.com Chef AJ's Books: The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquer Cravings, Overcome Food Addiction and Lose Weight Without Going Hungry https://amzn.to/2uSuIS1 Unprocessed: How to Achieve Vibrant Health and Your Ideal Weight https://amzn.to/2JZaGtX   Food Addiction http://learntruehealth.com/food-addiction-2/ A lot of us are guilty of food addiction. We usually either think it’s hard to do or ineffective for achieving weight loss or gaining your health back. But that’s not true.  That’s why I’m so excited to have Chef AJ who’ll teach us some tips and tricks in kicking our food addiction forever. Childhood Years Chef AJ’s eating habits during childhood were the standard Jewish diet. It was high in fat and animal protein. In a way, she describes her environment as belonging to a family of emotional eaters surrounded by food.  As a result, her family members suffered from all sorts of diseases. ” Born in 1960, I became fat at the age of 5. One of every three children under the age of 18 is overweight. It’s never fun being overweight especially as a child,” recalls Chef AJ. “Because it led me to do what I do now. I don’t want people to have to go through the pain shame and humiliation.” Chef AJ had two older brothers who told her back then that guys are not going to date fat girls. And they were right. Because during her senior prom, Chef AJ didn’t have a date. So, thinking about her childhood, it makes Chef AJ sad. Growing Up Years Chef AJ’s family moved back to California from Chicago when she was 11 years old. She was not even 5 feet tall and yet she weighed 160 pounds. That is childhood obesity.  When Chef AJ was in her 20s, she weighed up to 200 pounds. Nobody was offering any suggestions. It took an offhand remark from an uncle who happened to be a doctor for Chef AJ to want to change. Her uncle told Chef AJ she could probably go a week without eating and it wouldn’t hurt her one bit. So, Chef AJ tried not to eat, and she indeed lost weight. But in the next seven years, Chef AJ became anorexic. Putting her health at risk, Chef AJ developed liver damage, then her fingernails and hair fell out. “Anorexia is not sustainable. I don’t recommend it for weight loss or dietary control. Because eventually, you get so hungry,” said Chef AJ. “When you haven’t eaten very much for many years, you end up becoming bulimic like me.”  She adds, “It’s worse in some ways. Because with bulimia, you have the energy to do things. You’re eating, but you’re eating a lot. And getting rid of food by exercising or in my case smoking and purging. I remember getting depressed and even thought of suicide in my 20s.” Chef AJ also recalls that back then, they treat bulimia like a mental disease and lock you up in a psychiatric hospital. The funny thing was, for most of that time, Chef AJ was vegan. She became a vegan at a very young age for ethical reasons at age 17 when she attended the University of Pennsylvania. But Chef AJ was what she calls herself a “fat” vegan. Because she didn’t eat many of the healthy foods that she eats today. She had her food addiction — candies, cakes, cookies and ice cream. Plus, a lot of caffeine and sugar.  Effort To Change By the age of 43 and had eaten almost no fruits and vegetables her entire life, Chef AJ soon found had what books call a pre-cancer stage. It wasn’t until Chef AJ was in her early 40s that she learned food had something to do with how we look, feel or what diseases she could get or reverse. “I always thought it was genetic. Genetics are important to a certain extent. But it’s our diet and lifestyle that pulls the trigger,” said Chef AJ. Optimum Health Insitute It wasn’t long before Chef AJ found this magazine featuring a place near San Diego, California called the Optimum Health Institute. Chef AJ first went there on July 6, 2003, and found that although there were no medical doctors, there were chiropractors, nurses, and health professionals. That was also the first time she ever had a conversation on food and how it affects us. Chef AJ stuck to her prescribed diet for two years. Six months after, she went back to her old doctor who asked Chef AJ if she went to surgery because her colon was now clean. That’s where Chef AJ’s life changed. After The Program After going through her program at the Optimum Health Institute, Chef AJ realized she wasn’t going to be able to stay on this diet unless the food started tasting a lot better. Generally, she believes people can do anything short-term. And the way they teach eating at Optimum is more for healing and detox. There may be people who eat that way long-term, but it’s mostly salad without dressing plus fruit and juices. That’s why Chef AJ enrolled in culinary school and signed up for an intensive 30-day program. But the cooking school they used a lot of sugar, salt, and oil even on raw foods.  So, Chef AJ was on the brink of going back to her old habits. Despite that, it was a great learning experience because Chef AJ learned kitchen confidence. Soon after, she became a professional chef for five years. “I wasn’t consuming caffeine, white sugar or flour so I was doing a lot better. Then I soon got a job as a pastry chef,” Chef AJ said. “Then in 2008, I took a 1-year program called the wisdom course.” The Wisdom course was a lot about play and fun. It was a creative course where Chef AJ was given weekly homework. “So, I decided to go on a diet for a few weeks to change my palate. Filling the ref with fruits and veggies, I initially felt irritable, anxious, shaky, sad in a way. But that was when I became aware that foods for some people have effects,” said Chef AJ. Creating Recipes To help people overcome food addiction and jumpstart their weight loss journey, Chef AJ created some recipes and had some friends sample it.  Her friends found it delicious and encouraged her to share her recipes with people who need help in gaining their health back. One memorable person who greatly benefited from her recipes is former actor Don Grady.  He passed away from bone cancer, but before that, Chef AJ was instrumental in extending his life by five years just by incorporating her recipes into his diet.  Chef AJ’s Books Chef AJ’s road to better health and kicking out food addiction let her write her book called Unprocessed. According to her, processed food is not food. It may be readily available, socially acceptable, easily affordable but it’s not food. She also explains that especially for kids, children have different sensitivities. Chef AJ cites people in prisons, schools, hospitals are fed the worse possible food. She says even the United States Armed forces. “The people that could benefit the most from eating the best nutrition are getting the worse nutrition,” said Chef AJ. Chef AJ’s newest book is called The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss. It’s a new approach to teach you how to overcome food cravings and food addiction aside from losing weight without starving yourself. TV Show Chef AJ hosted a TV show called Healthy Living with Chef AJ which aired on Foody TV. It was a cooking show and a lifestyle show as well because she interviewed some cool people who gave valuable information about food. She’s currently working on the funding to air it for another season hopefully. Food Tips Chef AJ says that people are going to have to learn some basic cooking techniques if they want to be successful or get somebody else to do it for them. But it doesn’t mean you have to go to culinary school. One has to be willing to devote a few hours every week to do some batch cooking. “I have videos on Youtube showing people how to do this. Because if you always have healthy food ready, then it’s not hard to assemble a healthy meal especially if you want to eat more simply,” assures Chef AJ. One of Chef AJ’s favorite quick fix is getting some Japanese sweet potatoes, cut it in half, put some blueberries, fresh mint and fruit flavored balsamic vinegar on top. Other quick fixes can be anything from whole grains, quinoa or beans. She also advises to let children choose their vegetables. Because generally, people love customizing. Another excellent food resource is the products of the Healing Movement. Their products are raw cultured vegetables, which has the richest probiotics in the market. Plus, it’s dairy-free. “It can take a while for food that is less stimulating to taste good. Salt is the hardest. It takes a good 30 days to get through,” said Chef AJ.  She adds, “As for oil, people don’t miss the oil. They may miss the fat. So I recommend the whole food fat over oil. But sugar is a whole another story. If you suffer from food addiction, that might be something you want to cut out no matter what your dietary pattern is.” Kitchen Tools One tool Chef AJ loves in making her food is a pressure cooker. But other tools really can help you get healthy food on the table fast. “There’s nothing magical about oil unless you deep fry. You need a good pan and learn to dry saute, or steam fry the food. You can also add a teaspoon of water or broth,” said Chef AJ. “It does not make the food taste better. Oil coats the food, so you end up having to use more salt.” Clean Environment Chef AJ stresses the importance of cleaning up your environment. Because whatever health, lifestyle or behavioral change you’re trying to make, you have to have your environment support you. “Your environment either supports your food addiction or supports your recovery. It can’t be both,” Chef AJ said. “Your environment is going to be critical to your success, especially your home environment. So control your home environment because it will make a critical difference.” Signs Of Food Addiction Are you now wondering if you have a food addiction? Chef AJ recommends that you ask yourself these questions, which is a quiz in her book: Do you have to consume it daily or several times a day? Do you feel bad when you are unable to get your fix? Do you think about it often and can’t wait until you can consume it again even if you just had it? Is it difficult for you to moderate your use of it? Do you tend to use more of it than you intended to? Do you often feel shamed or regret after consuming it? Do you have physical or emotional withdrawal symptoms when you try to abstain from it? Is it difficult for you to get through even a single day without consuming this substance? Does abstaining result in emotional or physical discomfort? Does the mere thought of abstaining from it bring on strong emotions, like anxiety, sadness, anger or grief? If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, Chef AJ says you may indeed be suffering from food addiction. “I want people to know this is a difficult journey. But it is possible and doable. Eventually, they will learn actually to prefer the taste of whole natural food. Any which way they get there, it is possible. It just takes time,” said Chef AJ.  Bio Chef AJ has been devoted to a plant-based diet for almost 40 years. She is the host of the television series Healthy Living with CHEF AJ which airs on Foody TV. With her comedy background, she has made appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman and more.  A chef, culinary instructor and professional speaker, Chef AJ is the author of the popular book Unprocessed: How to Achieve Vibrant Health and Your Ideal Weight, which chronicles her journey from a junk-food vegan faced with a diagnosis of pre-cancerous polyps, to learning how to create foods that nourish and heal the body.  Chef AJ’s new book The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquer Cravings, Overcome Food Addiction and Lose Weight Without Going Hungry has received glowing endorsement by many luminaries in the plant-based movement.  Based in Los Angeles, Chef AJ teaches a monthly sold-out seminar featuring cooking instruction, nutritional science, and song parodies, all delivered with comedic panache. Never content to leave her audience with mere “just do it” advice, she teaches how to create meals to transform their health, how to deal with cravings and food addiction and addresses the emotional side of eating.  Chef AJ is the creator of the Ultimate Weight Loss Program, which has helped hundreds of people achieve the health and the body that they deserve.

“Many people don't change until the pain associated with change is less than the pain of staying the same.”Chef AJLet's be clear: just because you're vegan doesn't mean you're healthy.To be sure, for so many reasons, eating animal free is awesome. But it's not a wellness panacea. Oreo cookies and Lay's potato chips are vegan. Unless your diet is liberated from the growing abundance of refined and highly processed processed foods, you're prone to confront the same weight management issues and chronic lifestyle illnesses that plague the average consumer subsisting on the standard American diet.Just ask Chef AJ. A vegan chef for almost 40 years, she nonetheless struggled mightily with obesity for decades — prisoner to an addiction to processed snacks, refined sugar desserts, and an array of vegan junk foods that left her not only chronically overweight, but seriously unwell.AJ's salvation came only when she finally became willing to confront her unhealthy relationship with food as a true addiction. It's a journey that required her to completely let go of habits that no longer served her, accept help, and embrace an entirely new relationship with food in the form of a whole foods, plant-based lifestyle.This is her story — an inspiring tale of triumph and personal transformation that will leave you rethinking your own habits. Enabled with the tools required to achieve and maintain your optimal body weight. And empowered to live your best life.A former comedian, today Chef AJ is a renown plant-based chef, culinary instructor, public speaker and member of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine with a certificate in Plant-Based Nutrition from Cornell University.An expert in food addiction, emotional eating and creating meals to transform health, AJ is the host of the television series Healthy Living with Chef AJ and has appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman and more. In addition, she is author of Unprocessed: How to Achieve Vibrant Health and Your Ideal Weight*. Her latest book, The Secrets To Ultimate Weight Loss* comes out soon (release date TBA).Full of life, AJ is one of my favorite health warriors, totally committed to serving others. Picking up where we left off in RRP #56 way back in 2013, this conversation is a must listen for anyone who struggles with food addiction, unhealthy cravings and a fluctuating waistline.As impactful as it is entertaining, it's an exchange about the often under-addressed emotional aspects of eating. It's about the hows and whys behind empowering a new relationship with food. And it's about the joy, vitality and self-esteem that can be experienced by breaking the chains of food addiction.I sincerely hope you enjoy this interaction as much as I enjoyed having it.More importantly, my hope is that you put AJ's insights to work — because if she can do it, you can too.A reminder that the podcast is also viewable on YouTube here: http://bit.ly/chefajrrpIf you are enjoying the videos, See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

If you're trying to lose weight and have grown tired of the struggle, this segment is for you. If you're a regular listener of the show, you're aware that we believe that life is about relationships. In this discussion with author Aaron D. Snyder, we'll delve into our relationships with ourselves, our relationship with food and why it's so difficult to shed pounds. Aaron Snyder had a very unhealthy lifestyle until he was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes in September 2000 at the age of 22. While Type II Diabetes doesn't usually emerge until middle age, his sedentary junk food style of living placed him at the front of the line to receive this shocking diagnosis. But rather than accept a tedious, dreary existence of medical dependency, he changed his mind, accepted responsibility for his physical well-being and changed his life. Among the largest category of books are diet and cookbooks lending fact to America's love of food and obsession with weight loss. There are many books on the market that contain medical advice and wisdom on health, self-help, dieting and fitness, but nowhere is there a book that conveys thorough information on all of these crucial topics quite like Aaron's book, The New Diabetes Prescription: The Diet, Exercise and Mindset Revolution. Arranged in 12 Prescribed methods to address our relationship with food, being accountable for our choices, managing stress, controlling emotional eating, maintaining healthy blood sugar levels, choosing the foods that are right for you and following through.
