Weight a Minute

On this episode, we are revisiting an older episode - Sugar, Sugar, Sugar. I wanted to recycle this episode not because I want to add to the villainization of sugar and proclaim more fear about how terrible sugar is for you, but because we feel like information is power. Especially with how many people have something to say about sugar, whether they are qualified to or not. The more you know goes with our ongoing mantra of data, not drama. In this episode we cover the history of our evolving love affair with sugar, "healthier" sources of sugar, are they really better for us, and how does our body handle alternative sugars. Everyone gets to make their own choices on what and how much they consume of things AND everyone should be privy to the information behind it, not just be sold the marketing department's version or the loudest persons on the internet view. Enjoy!Get more health talk and tips @path_nutritionWant more or want to work with us?

"You can't change what you don't measure." Is that true in diet and health? In this episode, Beth and Jessica discuss how important, or not, it is to track food or other measures of health when you have a goal. Can you lose weight if you don't track your food? Can you still eat intuitively and track food? Listen in and we discuss what the research says and what happens in real life.Watch this episode on YouTubeGet more health talk and tips @path_nutritionWant more or want to work with us?

The ping-pong of inner chatter of “should I or should I not” can put our brain in a confusing place because it wants to have clarity. But sometimes there is no clear answer, so how do we move forward? Beth and Jessica talk through what some thoughts might come up and how to work through them. The topic discussed in this episode is weight loss, but you could apply the same concepts to all kinds of decision-making situations, especially those requiring a behavior change.Follow us on Instagram @path_nutritionWant to work with us?

Do you find you find yourself beating yourself up mentally or restricting food or over-exercising - basically punishing yourself - if you overate or didn't eat "healthy"? You might be punishing yourself for a behavior that is just a sign that you are missing a skill. The food and eating behavior often do NOT have anything to do with why you are in the cabinet or freezer after a hard day. Tune in to learn more from Jessica and Beth on how eating patterns are about so much more than just food!

The conversation around GLP-1 medications for weight loss continues as we unpack the recent Oprah Special on ABC - "Shame, Blame and the Weight Loss Revolution." Some great points were made in the special, but one thing was glossed over very quickly - the food supply's role is disrupting our natural GLP-1 production. Beth gets fired up this week talking about the gross negligence on the part of food companies and the regulation of what our food is doing to us.

When someone sees the number on the scale go down, they get happy - "YAY I've lost weight!" But hold up, when the scale moves it does not always mean you are losing fat. If you are going about dieting, in most of the methods out there, you are likely losing more than fat, and that's not a good thing. Be sure to listen to the know the difference between losing fat and losing weight. Knowing the difference determines long-term health and more.You can find us at:Instagram.com/path_nutritionYouTubePathNutrition.com

The body positivity (BoPo) movement has been working to break down barriers to accepting all body sizes. It's so great showcasing that we can't all be the same size and we are here for all the bodies. But now some BoPo influencers, who have built their whole community around body acceptance, aren't being accepted because they want to lose weight. What the heck? It's damned if you, damned if you don't. Beth and Jessica discuss body positivity and why people get upset about change in the community. As well as how to support your mind around your body, health, and online communities when wanting to make a change.
