If you’ve ever felt obsessed with writing down your food, tracking calories, workouts, water, or anything, this one’s for you! And if you’ve ever tried to track but struggled and felt like a failure, we got you! Listen in to learn how to unsubscribe from diet culture and tangible tips to empower yourself on your health journey. This week, Jenn is joined by Nutrition Coach, Nicole Hagen. Nicole talks about her struggles with tracking food and unhealthy diet habits which led her to some serious medical issues. She discusses how she took control of her habits and a decade later helps clients create a healthy, balanced relationship with food and exercise. Nicole provides some great alternative metrics to measure your success. She also talks about how to ditch food tracking apps if you have found yourself in an unhealthy relationship with them. Jenn and Nicole touch on toxic diet culture, where it came from, and why we get too wrapped up in trying the next thing. Tune in to learn how to lose weight without getting involved in diet culture.  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:  ● [4:51] Nicole provides her background and how she got into the health and wellness space. ● [11:10] Why do people not see the behaviors that they are currently doing? ● [12:36] Nicole talks about how tracking may contribute to disordered behavior around eating and exercise. ● [16:36] What are some alternative metrics to measure your success? ● [21:10] Are there any apps that Nicole recommends for tracking? ● [26:45] Nicole talks about diet culture. ● [31:23] How does Nicole recommend her clients navigate all the information out there around diet culture?  ● [36:05] How can you want to lose weight and avoid diet culture?  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [29:04] Many doctors have subscribed to the main idea that health is a size. Recognize that you have to be your own best advocate in every situation, including with your health care practitioners. ● [31:48] Next time you hear information about a diet or exercise and you are wondering if it’s something you should implement into your routine or life - ask yourself who benefits from you thinking or believing the information is true? The diet industry wants to keep you sick and unhappy so you are constantly seeking the next fad diet/workout that will “fix” all of your problems. So if you are holding on to information that diet culture wants you to believe, you are holding on to the wrong information.  ● [37:39] If the way that you are using tracking apps or any type of tool is supporting your goals, that’s fantastic, if it’s not supporting you in a way that feels good or is pulling you further away from a healthful life, that’s when you need to revisit what tools are in your toolbox and how you are using them.  QUOTES:  [11:23] “I do believe that when we look at the stages of change, sometimes we are not at all ready to create the change that we need to create in order to live a healthy, happy life. Like I said, we’re just too attached to the coping mechanisms that we have, even if they’re harming us.” - Nicole Hagen [14:49] “I like to think of tracking a little bit like a blood panel. I believe that it can reveal super helpful data that we can then take action on to improve our health and body, make body composition change if we choose to, but when we become dependent on it, we have then taken a potentially helpful tool and turned it into a harmful one.” - Nicole Hagen [28:46] “If we don’t work to deconstruct these limiting beliefs, they can start to impact how we feel in our own bodies, how we see and value other people in different bodies, and of course, how we value ourselves.” - Nicole Hagen [32:54] “I also like to encourage clients to look inward. So regardless of what this is telling me - carbs are bad, sugar is bad, fruit has terrible things in it, you should stop eating apples and bananas - what foods leave me feeling best? If I am the best person to collect feedback on my body, and I try to throw out all of the rules that I know to be “true”, because of what I’ve learned in the past, what does my body feel good eating, what gives me more energy, what leaves me feeling able to keep up with my kids or workout in the gym or have a clear head space? - Nicole Hagen RESOURCES: Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast: 239 // WHAT TO DO WHEN IT FEELS LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH WILLPOWER https://podcasts.apple.com/lv/podcast/239-what-to-do-when-it-feels-like-you-dont-have-enough/id1449515682?i=1000628527250 with Jenn Trepeck  Perception vs. Reality Episode https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/perception-vs-reality Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en Guest Resources Nicole Hagen's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/nutritionwithnicole/ Nicole Hagen's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/nutritioncoachnicole Nutrition Coaching with Nicole Website https://nutritioncoachingwithnicole.com Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/lv/podcast/health-wellth-wisdom-podcast/id1449515682 BIO Nicole Hagen is a Nutrition Coach, Host of The Health, Wellth & Wisdom Podcast & a New Mom.  Driven by her own journey of recovering from a years-long eating disorder & healing her own relationship with food, Nicole has found her calling to help other women unsubscribe from the toxic diet culture, find food freedom & reach sustainable fat loss without deprivation, shame, or guilt.  Today, 10+ years later, she has a Master's in Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Public Health alongside countless other degrees, various podcast & media features & a successful business where she has helped hundreds of women leave yo-yo dieting and toxic diet culture behind, so they can live the healthiest & happiest lives!

Are you tired of trying (or thinking you be trying) all the quick fixes and biohacks from the health gurus? Jenn is here to share the ultimate biohack when it comes to optimal health…tune in to hear what it is! In this episode, Jenn is talking about the ultimate biohack, sleep! Sleep is fundamental to our health and wellbeing, and yet most people struggle to get enough of it. Jenn is here to change that. She starts the episode off with explaining what a biohack is, and what common ones are on social media these days. She talks about the different levels of insomnia and why it has become a social norm to deprive ourselves of sleep. Jenn then dives into what the four stages of sleep are, why they are important, and how to ensure that you are setting yourself up for the best sleep possible. Tune in to this episode to learn what small steps you can implement into your routine to see big rewards!  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:  ● [5:31] What is a biohack?  ● [14:46] Why many biohacks can be misleading.  ● [15:32] What is the ultimate biohack? ● [17:21] What is insomnia?  ● [20:08] Why do we deprive ourselves of sleep? ● [25:00] How can you set up your day to support quality sleep? ● [30:26] What are the four stages of the sleep cycle? ● [32:58] What are the biggest things that impact the quality of our sleep? ● [36:06] What is your own best sleep cocktail? ● [43:58] Jenn’s final thoughts on sleep.  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [15:57] If you remedy your sleep, you can reduce many health symptoms and challenges. ● [28:44] The biggest impacts on your health come from doing the little things consistently, and then adding a new little thing once the first has become a habit, rather than doing a dramatic thing that happens occasionally.  ● [43:59] Health happens when we sleep, and our biohacks are a lot of wasted effort if you don’t have the fundamentals in place first. QUOTES:  [9:00] “When we see it as the magic bullet, I think the implementation of that is that people say, that’s the only thing I need to do. I can do the one thing and then nothing else matters, this is the thing that’s going to undo all the others, and that’s not exactly the case.” - Jenn Trepeck  [14:20] “You can’t supplement your way out of poor nutrition. It’s fighting an uphill battle all the time. You take one step forward, two steps back over and over, every time you hyperfocus on these other things, instead of focusing on the consistency of the fundamentals.” - Jenn Trepeck  [19:53] “All of these things connect to what happens when we sleep, if we aren’t getting that repair, it stands to reason we’re going to have a whole host of malfunctions.” - Jenn Trepeck  [30:48] “This is where the body’s biology is so smart and it does it on its own, and sometimes our best bet is to get out of the way. Let it do its thing and get out of the way.” - Jenn Trepeck  [43:59] “Health happens with sleep, and our biohacks are a lot of wasted effort if we do not have the fundamentals in place. Your biohacks are a thimble of water on your house fire, and when we’re tempted to go toward the shiny object and the biohack from the guru, pause and recognize that what we really need is consistency in the fundamentals and probably a little bit more sleep and we’re all going to be just fine.” - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Sleep On It https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/sleep-on-it Circa Your Circadian Rhythm https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/circa-your-circadian-rhythm Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en

Do you wish you had extra hours in your day to accomplish all the things you have to get done? Or to get to the gym? Or find some “me time”? You’re not alone. There are tools that can help you maximize your time management and avoid decision fatigue. Tune in to hear great tips on utilizing the time you do have and how to schedule your week.  This week, Jenn is joined by Time Management Expert, Megan Sumrell. After becoming a mom, Megan realized that her time management needed to change, she had too much to do and never felt like she had enough time to complete it all. She created her 5-step Time Management Solution and is now helping women everywhere restructure their schedules to ease decision fatigue and stress. Megan shares her 5-step planning process during this episode, including how to keep it realistic and not beat yourself up if your schedule doesn’t go according to plan. Her tips help make time management achievable, no matter how busy you are! Tune in to learn more about making your life and schedule a bit easier!  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:  ● [6:14] Where did Megan figure out all the time management skills for productivity?  ● [8:45] What are the faults in the typical time management systems? ● [11:43] How do we identify our relationship with time? ● [19:01] Megan discusses the brain science and physical science behind her management system.  ● [22:09] How can people add things into their day to replenish willpower as well as remove things that cause decision fatigue?  ● [23:42] Where is the best place to start when organizing your time?  ● [28:32] Megan walks through her 5 steps of weekly planning.  ● [34:23] What is the best approach to being realistic about how long things take?  ● [37:05] How do you stick to your schedule? KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [19:58] Operating from a to-do list keeps you in a daily state of decision fatigue. By the end of the day, when you are in full decision fatigue mode, your brain cannot make good choices.   ● [23:43] A weekly audit is a great place to start when looking at what you can do differently in your schedule. Look for patterns and understand how much of your life is spent in rapid fire context switching to see where there are some possible efficiencies.  ● [29:07] The most transformative thing you can do for your schedule is to acknowledge the unavailable time or busy time in your day and block it off on your schedule. This could be when you are up in the morning making breakfast and getting lunches packed, or time when you kids get home from school and you have things to do. Usually we try to fill this time with other things, but it is a necessity to block it out so those things can be done.  QUOTES:  [12:33] “When we’re in control, that means we’re deciding how we’re spending our time, what we’re saying yes to, when we’re doing it, and we have really good boundaries with that.” - Megan Sumrell [20:03] “Every time you look at your to-do list, you’re having to make a decision and now your brain - more gas is taken out of it. So by the end of the day, you’re in full decision-fatigue mode and your brain can’t make good choices. This often ties into why at the end of the day, we hit the panty and make bad health choices as well. It’s not because you don’t have willpower, it's not because you’re not a good person, it’s because your brain is done. You’ve maxed it out, it’s in full on decision fatigue.” - Megan Sumrell [25:00] "What's really powerful with this planning system is one of the things you’re looking for in your time audit is this, how much of my time on average each week is spent dealing with things I had no idea was coming had to be dealt with in that week, and I call this planning for uncertainty, and it’s different for everybody and it’s different in different seasons of our life.” - Megan Sumrell [37:06] “Your plan does not confine you, it supports the goals that you have in your life.” - Megan Sumrell "It’s not that there isn’t enough time in the day, it’s not that you’re a poor planner. Rather it’s simply time to shift our relationship with time and adopt an approach to time management that better fits our modern lives." - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES: Megan Sumrell's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/megansumrell/ Megan Sumrell's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/megansumrell Work Life Harmony YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@WorkLifeHarmonyPodcast/ Megan Sumrell's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/msumrell/ Megan Sumrell's Website http://www.megansumrell.com BIO: Megan Sumrell is a former corporate techie turned entrepreneur.

Calories, the scale, BMI. The way you (and your doctor) measure your health and your choices are not just not serving you, they’re leading you astray. What if we started to measure choices regarding our health based on listening to our bodies or communicating with our bodies, rather than adhering to outdated rules? Tune in to this episode to redefine your yardstick.  This week, Jenn is talking about creating your own yardstick when it comes to your health journey. There is so much information available to people about which workouts are the right ones to do, and how you should eat, how much you should or shouldn’t eat, that we often lose sense of what our individual bodies need to be in our best health. Jenn walks through a variety of topics ranging from exercise, diets, portion sizes, creating your own metrics of success and more throughout this episode. Tune in to hear Jenn share some great tangible ideas on how to ensure your goals and the metrics you use to measure your progress are right for you, and what choices to make when creating your own benchmarks.  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:  ● [5:54] What are things that we measure when it comes to our health? ● [8:12] How can you better measure your workouts?  ● [14:40] How do you measure your food?  ● [26:23] How do you know appropriate portion sizes? ● [31:48] How can you make the best choices for your individual self? ● [35:15] How do we avoid using social media and societal norms and get stuck in a cycle of comparison? ● [38:47] How do you know if what you are doing is actually working? ● [41:09] Why do doctors use BMI, where did it come from and what is a better metric to use instead? ● [43:38] Are the scales out there accurate to account for your body fat %? ● [47:05] Jenn shares alternative benchmarks to measure success and progress.  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [17:38] Calories should not be on your yardstick of measuring how much food you should intake. Instead, the measurement on your yardstick can be that you are going to eat the colors of the rainbow throughout the week. ● [35:20] Don’t let social media create your benchmark for your health. Instead, tune in to your body and see if you have energy, if you are feeling good, if you are improving how you choose foods, if you are eating the rainbow, if you are getting nutrition every day, and if you are making progress over your behaviors.  ● [39:39] The number on the scale includes your bones and your organs and water and your brain and muscle and fat and all of these other things. Measuring only the number on the scale going down, does not indicate health.  QUOTES:  [12:37] “We’re then looking at other people and making whatever they’re doing or not doing, whatever is happening for them or not happening for them, something about us and our progress. Which is frankly apples and oranges.” - Jenn Trepeck [12:52] “I think a lot of the devices create the metrics that we then all think we ‘should be using.’ Maybe it’s worth either adjusting some of those things in your device or maybe opting out of some of them if they’re not serving you in a way that’s helping you feel positive and energized, or maybe there’s a different way to use the tool.” - Jenn Trepeck [15:12] “When it comes to food, calories is a terrible yardstick.” - Jenn Trepeck [19:00] “Percent daily value was based on number one, a 2,000 calorie diet, and number two, based on a person not deteriorating into rickets and scurvy. So it was originally designed in the time of war based on how our military was being fed.” - Jenn Trepeck [22:08] “It’s a choice, Everything is a choice. There are choices that will move us in the  direction of our goal faster than other choices.” - Jenn Trepeck [34:14] “What if we started to measure our choices based on listening to our bodies or communicating with our bodies, rather than on some set of rules and adhering to those rules?” - Jenn Trepeck [37:37] “When we think about the choices that we’re making, oftentimes people will say well this is easier, the metric of ease. Maybe we start to look or redefine ease to distinguish between ease in the moment or ease in the long run. In the moment it might be easier to buy the Reese’s cups in the grocery store checkout, but if that choice brings with it guilt and shame and thinking about those Reese's cups for a week, was it really easier? To me, I find it easier to not give myself reasons to beat myself up” - Jenn Trepeck  [47:05] “Things you might want to consider as other benchmarks for success and progress - quality sleep, how we manage or handle stress, or energy and our self confidence. What if you check in on those things every day, on eating the rainbow, where might that leave you? How would you feel? That’s health.” - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Perception vs. Reality Episode  https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/perception-vs-reality Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en

Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.  IN THIS EPISODE:  ● [5:22] How did Kate get into fitness and Pilates?  ● [7:16] What is Pilates? ● [9:33] What is true Pilates vs. what you might experience at a gym or hotel class? ● [13:01] How can someone know that Pilates is the right fit for them? ● [15:42] What information can people look for to know what to expect from a Pilates experience?  ● [21:04] What does it mean to connect the breath to the movement and your core and pelvic floor? ● [23:34] Where does the science come in and where does the methodology stem from for Pilates? ● [25:26] Kate walks us through a way to connect to your core and pelvic floor.  ● [28:45] How does Pilates help you in everyday life?  ● [32:03] Why do you need a lower amount of reps during Pilates? ● [35:16] Kate shares a story about how a client's Mind-Body Connection during Pilates spilled over into other areas of their life.  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [22:38] The pelvic floor, the core, and the breath are all interconnected and essential for having everyday strength.  ● [24:22] Pilates is great for everyone! No matter your age, there are benefits that you can get from practicing pilates and it can be customized to what it is you are needing. The intensity can be increased or decreased based on where a person is with their strength and individual needs.  ● [36:49] Pilates is like the glue for everything else. It’s the glue for everyday life, for the activities you want to do just to have fun, a way to excel and stay fit in the sports you are playing, manage stress, and more. It helps people physically and mentally.  QUOTES:  [6:03] “I’d torn the meniscus in my knee, I had hamstring injuries, back pain, all the dancer stuff, and I started to heal my own body from doing Pilates, and then went oh my goodness, this system is amazing. If I can heal myself, I can help others.” - Kate Boyle [14:00] “I’ll get athletes that are wanting to cross train and really expand in their sport. Golf is a great example, it’s all one sided, rotational to one side. So when we build up the strength and stabilization to the other side, they get more power, a better swing, and really excel in their game.” - Kate Boyle [14:53] “Even people where their mobility isn’t as great anymore, and it might be as simple as trying to reach up to that top cupboard is getting really hard because they're getting really stiff through their shoulder, we can really work on that shoulder range and strength, so just everyday movements become easier.” - Kate Boyle [30:50] “You are learning how to move while being present with your body. So many other exercises we do, we’ll jump up a treadmill, stick the headphones on or turn the TV on and start walking and running away and we’re thinking about the shopping we’ve got to do and the kids we’ve got to pick up. In Pilates you can’t do that because then you’ll lose your breath or what your movement’s doing, how many reps you’ve done, so it means for your workout, you actually have to be present in your body.” - Kate Boyle [32:25] “I think that’s a different sort of mindset as well, so many other modalities were like no, no, no, you’ve got to do your 10 or your 20 and you’ve got to push through. Whereas Pilates is very much no, no, no, your body is telling you this is just too hard. Right now, we’re going to start gripping the opposite muscles that shouldn’t be activating, so we’re going to hold our breath to get through, we’re going to brace those abs. So rather than doing that, where we’re not getting any benefits, take a short five second rest and then continue if you can.” - Kate Boyle  "You can strengthen your body in a way that's both supportive and restorative." - Jenn Trepeck RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES Mind Movement Health Website http://www.mindmovementhealth.com.au Mind Movement Health Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MindMovementHealth Mind Movement Health Instagram https://www.instagram.com/MindMovementHealth Mind Movement Health LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/kate-boyle-b2897ba1/ Mind Movement Health YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9yMsWZmU7jNr7KyXWqj9iA Mind Movement Health Podcast  https://open.spotify.com/show/0qQFd2Aat7yGQl1dLJblWa GUEST BIO: Passionate about holistic health and great movement, Kate runs her online movement and health platform, Mind Movement Health.

Most of us think our hearts are fine. Even the day before a heart attack, people think they’re OK!? Unfortunately, many people wait until they are experiencing a cardiac event before they look beyond blood tests cholesterol and the blood pressure reading at a doctor visit. Tune in to learn what tests you can do to take preventative measures in making sure your heart is operating in optimal condition. BTW, this is as much for athletes as it is for the reluctant exerciser! This week Jenn is joined by Chief Nursing Officer of Recovery Plus Health, Jenny Martin. Jenny breaks down many different aspects of heart health in this episode, from the difference between a heart attack and cardiac arrest, to VO2 max, to cardiorespiratory fitness, and more. She also discusses how a CPET test can provide you with a good outlook on your heart health, as well as give you information on how to best manage your fitness and exercise routine for your individual needs. Preventative care is a must when it comes to heart health, and this is one tool to help make your heart health a priority. Tune in to learn more about the CPET test, what it tells you, and where things can be missed when only doing lab tests.  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:  ● [6:03] How did Jenny end up in nursing and then shift into cardiopulmonary chronic care?  ● [12:33] What is the difference between a cardiovascular event vs. a cholesterol challenge or blockage?  ● [15:55] Many people look at athletes as the epitome of health, but then they have a cardiac event - what are we missing?  ● [20:23] What is Cardiopulmonary and Cardiopulmonary Fitness? ● [23:18] What is the difference between optimal and suboptimal? And why do we want to use these words?  ● [26:56] What is Respiratory Exchange Ratio (RER) and why is it important? ● [28:24] What is Peak VO2 or VO2 max? ● [33:21] What is Heart Rate at Peak and at Anaerobic Threshold?  ● [36:02] What is Cardiorespiratory Fitness (CRF)? ● [37:58] What is an Inducible Threshold?  ● [41:51] What is the CPET test? ● [48:05] How do people take the information about their Zones into their personal fitness routine? KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ● [29:46] Peak VO2 can be increased with the proper training, proper nutrition, proper hydration, and proper supplementation as your exercise or nutrition is optimized. Each time you can get the number up by one ml, you reduce your chance for all-cause mortality by 10%.  ● [33:49] Optimal performance for your heart rate is to keep your peak heart rate in the 80-85% range, which shows that you’re not heart rate dependent. We don’t want to be heart rate dependent, instead you want to be stroke volume dependent, meaning the strongest part of your heart is pumping oxygen-rich blood to the rest of your body. ● [36:59] Knowing your numbers gives you control over your situation. The best way to find out what you can do safely is to get the data, to know your numbers and know where you are so that you know where you want to go. If you don’t know where you’re starting, how do you know where you are headed? How do you know what your heart health goals should be?  ● [46:20] Not everyone has the same heart rate zones, so the CPET test can help you uncover what your heart rate zones are so you can exercise and function at your optimal health number. QUOTES:  [13:02] “You are not healthy the day before a heart attack.” - Jenn Trepeck “Hearts come in electrical and plumbing. When one of those goes wrong, that's when bad things happen. When we look at cholesterol levels, we're only looking at the plumbing." – Jenny Martin [14:47] “The original stress test, treadmill stress testing you get done in the cardiologist office, what they don’t do is they don’t do a ventilation, perfusion ratio. They don’t look at the gasses, they don’t look at the lung aspect of things, and so they actually don’t identify non-obstructive heart disease at all. You could have a heart cath, you could go in and have a wire run up through your arteries, and they can say ‘there’s nothing obstructive here, so everything is fine’, and you can have a heart attack the next day.” - Jenny Martin [21:29] “Sleep apnea has a very high rate of coexistence and causation for heart failure, and that’s very untalked about and it has everything to do with if we can’t get oxygen the heart just stops.” - Jenny Martin "Optimal means that things are working at a level in which it supports other systems. So, optimizing health we want to have all the systems, heart and lungs, working with each other to support every other system in our body.” - Jenny Martin [47:11] “I know my zone 2, you know your zone 2, and they’re not the same, but if we were to use the calculations that are just kind of out there for everybody to try to use, they would be very close, because it’s not taking into consideration anything else. Our health history, our cardiac function, our pulmonary function, what our body needs, what our bodies need to be able to perform at the workload that we’re asking them to, that’s going to differ per person as well.” - Jenny Martin RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES RecoveryPlus.Health Website https://www.recoveryplus.health Email: info@recoveryplus.health   http://info@recoveryplus.health Phone number: 800-242-6221 Jenny Marin's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-spinks-martin-946334169 Jenny Martin's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jennymartinfnp RecoveryPlus.Health's TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@recoveryplus.health RecoveryPlus.Health’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/recoveryplus.health/ GUEST BIO: Jenny Martin MSN, APRN, FNP-C and Chief Nursing Officer of Recovery Plus Health has years of nursing experience specializing in cardiology, pulmonary, and chronic care management.

Are you in your midlife era and noticing weight gain? Are you struggling to lose weight now that you’re over 40? Are you considering one of the weight-loss pharmaceuticals on the market to help you battle your weight? Before you turn to weight loss pills, tune into this episode to learn a better way to manage your health for the long term.  On this episode, Jenn speaks with nutrition coach, geriatric pharmacist, and fitness pro, Amy Wilson. Amy helps women work through their midlife weight gain by focusing on stress management, sleep, and eating real food. She provides some incredible tips in this episode that anyone can start doing today to work towards achieving their best health and focus on optimal aging. Amy gives her opinion on pharmaceutical drugs such as Wegovy, Mounjaro and Ozempic, talking about how they work in the body and the side effects that are being seen already. Tune in to gain a better understanding of how your body copes with stress and how to create optimal health, no matter your age.  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:  ●  [4:38] Amy shares how she became a pharmacist and became passionate about health and wellness. ●  [12:16] What gets us so stuck losing the midlife menopausal weight gain? ●  [15:55] What is the connection between blood sugar and aging and how we are creating accelerated aging in the body?  ●  [22:55] How does stress impact our body weight?  ●  [29:44] Amy talks about dietary needs utilizing real foods. ●  [33:34] How do you incorporate weights into your fitness routine?  ●  [35:30] How does sleep impact our weight loss? ●  [38:57] As a pharmacist, what is Amy’s outlook on pharmaceuticals for weight loss such as Wegovy, Mounjaro and Ozempic?   ●  [42:30] How can fad dieting affect our bones over time?  ●  [44:00] Skinny is not healthy, skinny does not equate to happiness.  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [13:15] Our metabolism pretty much stays the same until we are 60-65. However what we have done to ourselves with fad diets has slowed the metabolism down.  ●  [36:51] Focusing on your sleep will have huge impacts on your health. Work on creating good sleep hygiene/sleep habits by going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time every morning.  ●  [44:00] When you are on medications to treat side effects of other medications and you have no energy or don’t feel your best, that keeps you from living your life to the fullest. When you are scared to get off these medications because you are scared that you’ll gain weight back because you think skinny is healthy, that is psychological dependence.  ●  [45:00] We have to stop thinking that skinny equals healthy or that being skinny will make us happy, because it won’t. If you are not happy now, getting to whatever weight you think you need to be at, that’s not going to open up the doors and make everything all better. You have to be happy with who you are now. Stop fad dieting! Instead, focus on your nutrition, health, and building muscle and see what happens to your quality of life.  QUOTES:  [12:21] “This is what’s happened, we have accidentally, not on purpose, caused our issues, and how we have done that is what we started doing when we were 16, and that was dieting. That was the fad diets, starving ourselves to get into the prom dress, to get to the wedding, to be the bridesmaid or now its high school reunions, or another wedding or an event, and we do all these fad diets. And every time you did that fad diet, I don't care what anybody says, you did not lose body fat, every single time you did it, you lost muscle.” - Amy Wilson [16:38] “It’s not calories in, calories out. It’s quality in, quality out.” - Jenn Trepeck [18:10] “A banana’s not bad, an apple’s not bad, it’s the other stuff that we are eating that is causing these high peaks of blood sugar. What we want is this little wave. We go up, we go down, we go up, we go down. What we’re causing is this massive roller coaster, we go up, we drop down, up and drop down, and every time we do that, we are increasing our chronic inflammation.” - Amy Wilson "We’re having diseases of age at really young ages.” - Jenn Trepeck [33:08] “It’s also working on those behaviors because we need to learn how to navigate life, not with food. We need to enjoy food. That’s a part of our experience, but it’s not our drug to go to for anxiety and depression.” - Amy Wilson [42:57] “Your body is so smart. It wants to survive. It’s going to figure it out, so it’s going to get amino acids from your muscle. It’s going to get minerals from your bones. As women, that should scare the crap out of us because now you’re looking at osteoporosis, osteopenia, sarcopenia. So what I’m saying is that we’re going to see old lady disease in 35, 45, 50 year olds.” - Amy Wilson "We have the trifecta of stress: the stress of the mental anguish of what’s going on right now…the stress of not eating…the stress of over working out without any nutrition." – Amy Wilson [44:00] When you are on medications to treat side effects of other medications and you have no energy or don’t feel your best, how is that living? When you are scared to get off all of these medications because you are terrified that you’ll gain the weight back, because you think skinny is healthy, that is psychological dependence. So not only are we looking at muscle waste and bone disease in young women, now we are looking at a psychological dependence. Yes, it’s slow to build muscle and learn how to eat and to learn to deal with our feelings, and to dismantle these belief systems, to get strong and healthy (not skinny). It’s painfully slow, but the side effects are good. The side effects are “I can live”, they are energy, vitality, longevity. That’s what’s important.”  RESOURCES: Nutrition Nugget: Ultra Processed Foods https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/nutrition-nugget-ultra-processed-food America’s Fiber Problem Episode https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/americas-fiber-problem GMO Organic and Local Oh My Episode https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/gmo-organic-local-oh-my Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES Amy Wilson's Website https://www.amykwilson.com Amy Wilson's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thenutritioncoachpharmacist/ Amy Wilson Fitness Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/amywilsonfitness/ Amy Wilson's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-wilson-rph-bcgp/ Amy Wilson's YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkD50thvW_4kJZSd2E8qWtw Amy Wilson’s TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@nutritioncoachpharmacist GUEST BIO: Amy Wilson is a Board Certified Geriatric Pharmacist, a certified fitness professional, and a certified nutrition coach using the FASTer Way to Fat Loss platform, who is disrupting the diet industry and helping her clients take their health back.  Amy’s mission is to empower and equip her clients to take charge of their health and find balance in their lives.

Water is just water….right? Wrong! Analemma has uncovered just how critical the condition of water is, how to transform water to be coherent, and are proving how their Mother Water could change the world. Tune in to learn more!  This week, Jenn is joined by Mario Brainovic and Dr. Eric Laarakker from Analemma, a company that is bringing coherent state back into water. Dr. Laarakker and Mario discuss why Analemma water has the power to change the world and how they are working to get it into the right hands. They discuss the impacts water has on the mitochondria, microbiome, and energy within our bodies, as well as what our current water and soil are lacking. Mario and Dr. Laarakker talk about the studies they have run and the incredible research they’ve done to prove just how powerful water is. Tune in to this truly fascinating episode to learn the impacts Analemma can have, why it is so incredible, how it just might change everything.   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:  ●  [6:38] Mario shares how the partnership came to be between him and Dr. Laarakker. ●  [8:02] What led Dr. Laarakker to look at water closely?  ●  [12:03] Why was there a need to change our water? ●  [15:21] How does changing the molecules in water affect the organism that’s using the water? ●  [18:35] Mario and Dr. Laarakker explain how a crystal can transform water.  ●  [20:50] What is “Mother Water?” ●  [27:05] How does the mitochondria and ATP change using Analemma? ●  [30:36] What research did they do with the microbiome? ●  [37:55] Why haven't more people heard about Analemma before and its life/environment changing affects?  ●  [40:35] How do people know that Analemma is actually working for them? KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [9:41] One of the most important ingredients to change biophoton emission is water. ●  [20:58] Water energizes itself by moving left to right and going through turns. Electromagnetic harmful fields, toxins, and straight water channels all impact the quality of our water. Even when using something like a water filter, while it can reduce the harm in the water, the water still has memory of all the chemicals. ●  [32:50] 95% of serotonin is being created in your gut by your gut material, and it’s being delivered to your gut-brain barrier. So the state of your microbiome influences how you feel, how you experience life, what your mood is, it is extraordinarily important. Analemma has shown that if you drink the water, your microbiome is going to improve.  QUOTES:  [10:56] “We did some more tests and then we realized that there is more to it, that’s the whole-season function in it. So actually now it takes us almost a year to create the mother water because all seasons matter. In wintertime, I’m an acupuncturist and in acupuncture, at this time in the winter, your kidney energy is low, so your frequencies change almost every day. So we wanted to have all these parts into it and we created some more devices to get lightning in it until we had the beautiful perfect device we have now.” -  Dr. Eric Laarakker [12:13] “We realized in our research that water currently exists in what we call a chaotic state. So H20 molecules actually crash into each other constantly. There is a whole chaos there and nobody actually understands that because it’s happening on an atomic level. But we found that there is a way to create harmony, to bring harmony back into that chaos where those same H20 molecules start linking together and creating this liquid crystalline structure. In that unique process, water becomes alive. It actually becomes empowered to do so much for our health.” - Mario Brainovic [13:56] “Actually, we consider our water a radio, which gets all the information out of the cosmos, and it passes it through your body. At the end of the story is that almost every chronic disease is a communication issue in your body, so it helps restore the communication system in your body.” - Dr. Eric Laarakker  [15:09] Changing the way the molecules in the water move, translates into a change in the organism that’s using that water or drinking that water.” Jenn Trepeck [17:21] “You can very, very accurately measure the changes in brainwaves and we decided to go with the gold standard study. We actually took identical twins because they're genetically identical, so if you give something to one and not the other, you can very accurately see the changes happening. So the doctor administering the water didn't know which one was which, and twins didn't know which one was which, and we were just monitoring the results, and it works extraordinarily fast. As soon as the twin that took a sip of Analemma water, there was very fast, almost instant change and better connection between the left and the right hemisphere of the brain, an instant cooling effect on the brain waves, while the other twin didn't experience anything.” - Mario Brainovic [27:53] “If you are able to increase the mitochondrial function, it’s not like you’re just increasing the energy of your body, you’re actually stopping cellular aging, which is a key thing.” - Mario Brainovic [35:54] “What is really interesting and important there is that this was a completely barren piece of soil, you couldn't grow anything on it, it was dead. It was completely made with Roundup, and within only two months what happened is, just like Eric mentioned, there was a huge explosion in biodiversity of the microbiome. So much so that the bacteria in the soil now started to suck CO2 out of the atmosphere into the soil where it belongs. So it actually becomes an extraordinary, interesting and elegant way to treat the greenhouse gasses issue on the entire planet.” - Mario Brainovic RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES Analemma Water Website https://analemma-water.com/#a_aid=jenntrepeck Analemma Water's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/analemma_water/ Analemma Water's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/analemmawater Analemma Water's TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@analemmawater Mario Brainovic's LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/mario-brainovic-b200455/ GUEST BIO: Mario Brainovic is an entrepreneur, researcher and a visionary in the field of health and wellness.

Are you doing all the weight-loss things you are “supposed to”, but your body is still not releasing excess weight? This week on the podcast, our guest is sharing the top 3 reasons this could be happening and what you can do about each one!!  This week Jenn has invited dietitian Becky Bell on the show to talk about the top 3 reasons and remedies for weight loss resistance. At times people struggle to lose weight simply because they are not consistent enough with their habits, but there are other times where someone is doing everything they need to do to move the needle forward, and it’s just not happening. Becky talks with us about the impacts of stress, inflammation, and blood sugar balance. She gives great tips on how to determine what you might be struggling with, and the best ways to change the trajectory of those issues. Her information and tips are great resources as you work on your health in 2024. Tune in to learn more!  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:  ●  [4:53] What made Becky become a registered dietitian with a focus on functional nutrition?  ●  [8:01] What is weight loss resistance?  ●  [10:00] What are the impacts of stress on weight loss resistance and how can we overcome this obstacle?  ●  [15:25] What tools can you use to let go of stress? ●  [19:32] How do you know if you have inflammation?  ●  [20:59] How can you manage inflammation?  ●  [30:04] Becky provides information about insulin resistance.  ●  [32:38] What are the best ways to focus on blood sugar balance?  ●  [38:17] What are some of the biggest mistakes that Becky see’s people make when implementing these recommendations?  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [11:36] We burn through so many nutrients when our body is under stress, leading to depleted vitamins and minerals which are essential to a healthy metabolism.  ●  [19:37] Some of the signs that you are experiencing inflammation are feeling puffy, joint pain, feeling tired, brain fog, bloating, discomfort with food, irregularity in bowel movements, including diarrhea or constipation, and acne. ●  [34:32] The best way to balance blood sugar is to balance your meals, ensuring you are getting protein, fat and fiber in every meal. Also, focus on meal spacing, if you are having the right type of meal, you should be satisfied for 3-4 hours which allows for your blood sugar levels to balance.  QUOTES:  “This applies to the people who are super consistent and feel like 'it's not working.'” - Jenn Trepeck [11:12] “Our body is designed to produce cortisol in times of stress, in times that there’s a threat to our body. When our body is being signaled that it’s not safe, the last thing it wants to do is get rid of body fat, because if you need extra reserves, if you’re under stress or there’s a threat coming to us, so it’s the signaling to your body to try to hang on to that body weight.” - Becky Bell [15:28] “It’s about learning to put yourself higher on your priority list and reminding yourself that it’s ok to say no, you do not have to do everything, you don’t have to be everything to everyone and saying no and deciding I need this.” - Becky Bell [40:18] “My philosophy with exercise is for one, let's find ways to just make a habit of moving more in general, how can you just move more incorporated in your daily life just to move more. Also let’s work smarter instead of harder with exercise, especially if you have a weight loss goal. I think the top priorities should be weight lifting to build muscle and walking, because those are forms of exercise that don’t put a ton of stress on your body.” - Becky Bell "If you are going to a traditional, conventional doctor and they are telling you your blood sugar is too high, your pre-diabetic, you probably have had insulin resistance for years, more than likely." - Becky Bell "You can reverse insulin resistance and pre-diabetes." - Becky Bell RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES Becky's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/rooted.dietitian/ Becky's Facebook https://www.facebook.com/rooted.dietitians?view_public_for=110324940583050 Rooted Nutrition Therapies Website http://www.rootednutritiontherapies.com GUEST BIO: Becky Bell is a Registered Dietitian that specializes in gut health, metabolism, and weight loss.

What is your relationship with money? Or is money something you keep hush hush about and buried in the back of your closet? This week, we are discussing financial health and how to ensure you have clarity and are set up for success.  This week, Jenn is talking about financial health. Finances are a topic that stress out many people, so much so that they don’t even know what their budgets are or what their financial layout looks like. Instead of keeping all your financial woes in your closet, Jenn is diving in to creating a new money story, helping you gain clarity on what your finances look like, and giving tangible steps you can take to improve your financial health. Jenn also outlines how our financial health is connected to our physical health…and it’s about more than just the cost of healthcare or wellness. Tune in to learn more about creating a better financial story for yourself and how to take control of your money situation.  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:  ●  [8:56] What are the connections between our physical health and financial health?  ●  [11:34] Where is the gap when it comes to teaching about financial health? ●  [17:47] How do you uncover what your money story is and how are emotions tied to it?  ●  [22:26] The elephant in the room: wellness costs money  ●  [27:11] What does it mean that “if you don’t know your money, you don’t own your money?” ●  [31:21] Finances are very hush hush, how can you find someone qualified to help you with your finances?  ●  [33:59] What is a complimentary savings report and how does Jess use it with her clients? ●  [36:31] What all is included in budgeting and preparing for your financial health?  ●  [38:13] What are the best tools out there for free that will help with financial health?  ●  [44:19] Could winning the lottery shift your money story?   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [20:11] Debt is a tool, it is either used to get what you want or get what you need. It is not a state of being, it is not an emotional component to your life, it is not a burden, it is simply a tool.  ●  [32:24] When looking for someone to help you with your financial health make sure they are qualified and passionate. You want to ensure they are in your corner, helping you understand your finances and re-write your money story. There are many different free resources online and if that’s where you need to start, make sure you utilize resources from a reliable source.  ●  [47:04] How we treat our money is actually how we treat our money. So if you are careless with it and shove it in a winter coat pocket, or have no knowledge about your money, that’s how you will treat your money. If you care for it, learn about it, become knowledgeable about it, that’s how you will treat your money.    QUOTES:  [10:26] “The leading cause of death is heart disease, the leading cause of heart disease is stress, and the leading cause of stress is money.” - Jenn Trepeck  [16:25] “There was a study done that was released just last month, so not even a month ago, that said for people to maintain their quality of living from just 2021, we’re talking two years ago, it now requires a family of four to have an additional $11,994 a year in income. That’s almost a grand a month to maintain the same quality of life that we had just two years ago.” - Jess Stirewalt “Money might not be a challenge in your life but ...everything is always changing...part of our healthcare system is such that people are sometimes one diagnosis away from bankruptcy.” - Jenn Trepeck [41:44] “The banks aren’t sitting on our money, yeah, y’all heard me, the banks aren’t sitting on our money. They’re utilizing and leveraging our money with these same strategies to make money on top of money off of our money. The bank isn’t investing in anything, but they’re reaping all of the benefits.” - Jess Stairwalt [43:44] “Really the objective in this conversation too is not even to say okay, here’s all the money in the world, or here’s the things for you to do to flip the switch, but to raise our awareness and get a clearer picture of where we are right now in connection to our finances, to then be able to take steps forward in a direction that is empowering rather than confronting.” - Jenn Trepeck  “This is just another piece of our lives and the world that we're supposed to know but nobody ever taught us." - Jenn Trepeck   RESOURCES: 844-947-4846 - Text the code MONEY Top 5 Tips for Digesting Nutrition News Episode  https://open.spotify.com/episode/7wTwMvq0hBusVRQbqfC5Fg?si=412e8c0663934781 Secrets of the Millionaire Mind https://www.amazon.com/Secrets-of-Millionaire-Mind-audiobook/dp/B01F7O1FKW/ref=sr_1_1?adgrpid=1331509154151281&hvadid=83219394433145&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=111553&hvnetw=o&hvqmt=e&hvtargid=kwd-83219687396034%3Aloc-190&hydadcr=22597_10791199&keywords=secrets+of+the+millionaire+mind+book&qid=1705970061&sr=8-1 Rich Dad Poor Dad https://www.amazon.com/Rich-Dad-Poor-Teach-Middle/dp/1612681131/ref=sr_1_1?crid=9L1T5MXD1TW8&keywords=rich+dad+poor+dad+book&qid=1705970095&s=books&sprefix=rich+da%2Cstripbooks%2C155&sr=1-1 Cash Flow Quadrant https://www.amazon.com/Rich-Dads-CASHFLOW-Quadrant-Financial/dp/1612680054/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3O351Q3IKPRQW&keywords=cashflow+quadrant&qid=1705970114&s=books&sprefix=Cash+Flow+Quadrant%2Cstripbooks%2C211&sr=1-1 Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/

Are you wondering how to make 2024 your best year of health, but you are unsure of how to start? Or did you kick off this year with an intense new regime and you are already “falling off the wagon?” Tune in to hear tips on how to take control of your wellness path once and for all! This week, Jenn is sharing an episode where she was interviewed by Min Sukree, host of the Share a Latte podcast. In this interview, Jenn shares where her wellness journey started and how she became the incredible health coach that she is today. Jenn and Min discuss consistency and how diet and exercise culture has led us to believe that fitness is all about intensity. Jenn debates this and gives concrete examples of how we can ditch the intense workouts and diets that are so difficult to maintain. She talks about tangible steps you can take to maintain consistency on your journey and how to make your health goals more manageable, so that you can stick to them. Jenn describes the two paths within her new six month Resolution Revolution Coaching Program that launches this month. She describes what the program will entail, who it’s for and the potential shifts that clients may experience throughout the program. Tune in to find out if her new program is right for you, and if it isn’t, what you can start doing today to make 2024 your most successful year yet when it comes to your health.   If you are ready to make permanent changes to your health in 2024, sign up for Jenn’s 2024 Resolution Revolution Group Coaching Program https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/resolution-revolution/. 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:  ●  [4:50] Jenn talks about her personal health journey and how she got to where she is now.  ●  [13:26] How did Jenn’s health change after 2007 with the education she was learning? ●  [16:21] How does Jenn incorporate the science behind health and fitness to influence and create change? ●  [22:06] How can you eat out and still stay on track with your health goals?  ●  [29:22] What is Jenn’s experience with falling off the “consistency wagon?” ●  [30:50] What is the difference between consistency and intensity?  ●  [34:07] Jenn describes her new Resolution Revolution Coaching Program that launched in 2024. ●  [39:20] What results will people expect from the program?  ●  [40:40] What is a non-health objective goal?  ●  [42:14] What is Jenn’s coaching method around her program?   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [16:00] Understanding the science side of things can result in a behavior change and a shift in our thought process.  ●  [22:26] If your plan does not allow you to live your life, then it’s not the plan for life. Creating a realistic plan that allows you to be a part of the holidays, vacations, and every day life is where the magic will happen.  ●  [30:45] If you are pushing for super intense exercise, it is much harder to be consistent: to find the hour or the energy to do the HIIT, that takes a lot. That intensity is harder to maintain. Consistency and Intensity are often inversely related, the less intense, the easier it is to be consistent. The more intense something is, it’s harder to be consistent. If consistency is the objective, then our objective is something less intense that we can maintain. So, the objective can be moving out bodies every day, and that may look different every day, making it easier to maintain. ●  [43:38] Part of Jenn’s program focuses on a detox, because sweets, salt and fat are acquired tastes. This means that we learn they taste good, and that the more we have them, the more we want them. The more we have them, the sweeter or saltier or fattier something needs to taste in order for it to register. Starting with a detox can help clean out your system and get the benefits of all of the nutrition that you give yourself and reset your tastebuds. At first, the cravings may be tough, but as you add foods back in, your awareness of your cravings is dramatically different.    QUOTES:  [13:50] “I believe that the difference between knowing what to do and actually doing it is understanding why.” -  Jenn Trepeck  [18:35] “Talking about diet culture, we’re told to ‘eat less, move more’. If that was how the body works, would anybody have a problem? Clearly there’s more going on.” - Jenn Trepeck [19:21] “It’s not the calories that matter, it’s the quality of those calories that matter.” - Jenn Trepeck [25:52] “When I look at a menu in a restaurant, what it’s telling me is essentially what they have in their kitchen. It’s a recommendation but not a prescription. So if I want this salmon, but veggies instead of their mashed potatoes or rice, I can ask for that.” - Jenn Trepeck [29:30] “That’s the thing about consistency, there isn’t an on or an off, we just keep going. So if you think you have fallen off (the wagon), then you are not focused on consistency. There is no on or off, you just keep going. Stop starting over..” - Jenn Trepeck [40:15] “So everybody’s results are going to be different. It depends on what you’re looking for and what’s going to make a difference in your life. Having said that, these are the tools about just being human and fueling our system. I think it’s actually really important to have non health related objectives.” - Jenn Trepeck [45:11] “For most of us, we’re going to do about six weeks without grains, and that’s not about deprivation. It’s about how the average American eats more grain than an Olympic athlete is recommended to eat on race day, that’s a lot of grains. By removing them for a period of time, not only does it help our digestive system, but it allows us to find a handful of new favorite meals that don’t rely on the grain and starch. Then we can add them back in, in a proper proportion. Your grains and starches, we actually want to think of them more like a condiment than a food group, something that is going to add pizzazz to your meal rather than be the main part of it.” - Jenn Trepeck    RESOURCES: Nutrition Nugget: Stop Starting Over https://open.spotify.com/episode/6AQKB3sHaXlo0UrFaRlUc6 Share a Latte Podcast https://open.spotify.com/show/3AxKjWbc7PkH14q7Yw576d Jenn’s 2024 Resolution Revolution Group Coaching Program https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/resolution-revolution/ Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en

Why is the quality of nutrients so important?  ●  [9:00] Jenn breaks down what each of the macronutrients (carbohydrates, protein, and fat) are and why they are essential.  ●  [25:49] How can you make sure you are getting the requirements of each category that the body needs? ●  [30:29] Jenn breaks down the different micronutrients (vitamins, minerals and water). ●  [38:11] How can poverty and food deserts affect nutrition?  ●  [40:50] How has our food changed across generations?  ●  [42:03] Jenn touches on other factors that go into the nutrients our bodies need and supplementation.   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [06:30] Nutrition comes from nutrients. Nutrients are the building blocks of energy. Everything that we do in our lives requires energy, on a cellular level and on a physical level. Without nutrients or nutrition, producing energy becomes very hard. Nutrients are also essential for our bodies to grow and to heal.  ●  [09:00] If you are trying a low/no-carb diet to kick off the year, pause for a minute. Carbohydrates are incredibly important. Carbohydrates are the preferred fuel for the body, providing the energy our bodies need to perform work, and the materials necessary to build and repair tissue. The quality of the carbohydrates make all of the difference when it comes to fueling your body. Simple carbs, as tasty as they are, are lacking quality and do not do our health any favors. Complex carbohydrates can provide consistent energy and help you feel sustained longer.  ●  [11:00] An essential nutrient means that our bodies do not physically produce the nutrient, meaning we must get them from our nutrition or supplementation. There are 9 amino acids that our bodies cannot synthesize and 11 non-essential amino acids meaning, if the 9 essential amino acids are there, the body can make the other 11.  ●  [12:30] Protein is another essential nutrient or building block for our health. Complete proteins, like an egg, contain all of the essential amino acids. Incomplete proteins, such as beans, lack one or more of the essential amino acids. So by combining different protein sources, we can ensure that we are getting all 9 of the essential amino acids.  ●  [24:00] We need fat in our diets. Fats are involved in the production of hormones and affect our metabolism, which promotes digestion and satiety. When you are having digestion problems, ask yourself. “Am I missing a big category here?” and use your macronutrients to troubleshoot the problems.  ●  [41:16] Even if you’re eating quality food, there tends to not be a wide enough variety of foods to cover all the nutritional needs, so the lack of dietary diversity can result in specific nutrient deficiencies.  Combined with the lack of physical activity, we are predisposed people to greater health risks QUOTES:  [10:50] “What we want to do as we’re thinking about building our plates and how we’re fueling ourselves to create that energy, we want to focus on vegetables as our carbohydrates and then we can fill in with some of the whole grains. Carbohydrates are the preferred fuel of the body, they tend to be faster fuel for the body than some of the other macronutrients.” - Jenn Trepeck  [20:06] “What’s really important is to recognize that lipids, or fat, play critical roles in the body. Fat helps maintain our body temperature, fat helps protect our organs so that we don’t bump into a doorknob and puncture something critical. Our brain is mostly made up of fat. Every single cell in your body has a fatty layer around it. Fat is critically important for human survival, where we’ve gone astray or awry is the quality of the fat that we’re eating.” - Jenn Trepeck [27:03] “When we have enough of the protein, quality fat and fiber, we’re satisfied and those cravings for a lot of these other things can melt away.” - Jenn Trepeck  [38:30] “Food deserts used to be caused by not having access to food. Today, food deserts are caused by not having access to fresh foods. There are plenty of cheap processed foods available in a food desert. It becomes a function of up-front cost vs. future cost when purchasing these foods due to circumstances like budget or availability. We can pay the upfront cost in the quality of foods, or we’ll pay the future cost through healthcare or should I say disease care, because what we know is that physical inactivity, eating a high calorie, low quality, nutrient deficient diet predisposes people to great health risks: Cardiovascular health, cognitive health, sexual health, muscular health. Our overall health is at risk when we are nutrient deficient.” - Jenn Trepeck  [40:30] “Supplementation is no longer a luxury.” - Jenn Trepeck [44:27] “What I want everybody to understand is that there is zero substitute for healthy, well balanced nutrition.” - Jenn Trepeck  RESOURCES: Jenn’s 2024 Resolution Revolution Group Coaching Program https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/resolution-revolution/ GMO, Organic & Local, Oh My!  https://saladwithfries.simplecast.com/episodes/gmo-organic-local-oh-my Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en

There is no one size fits all health option and uncovering what the best health and lifestyle habits are for you can be confusing. Dr. Crippen is here to break down different ways to view your health and how to uncover your individual fountain of youth.  In today’s episode, Jenn is joined by Dr. Jeff Crippen, a chiropractor, nutritionist and coach who enjoys helping others unlock their true potential. After suffering from migraines for years in his youth, he put his passion into helping others the same way he helped himself. Dr. Crippen discusses what he discovered when doing research to uncover the Fountain of Youth. He talks about how to achieve your body’s natural state of health, and what things can impact your individual health. They discuss energy within the body and how the energy surrounding you is affecting your brain and health. Tune in to learn the fascinating ways our body’s work that aren’t typically discussed.  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:  ●  [5:11] Dr. Crippen talks about his struggle of having constant migraines throughout his youth. ●  [6:47] How did Dr. Crippen’s experiences lead him to become a doctor of chiropractic, a nutritionist and a coach?  ●  [13:06] While Dr. Crippen was looking for the Fountain of Youth, what did he discover?  ●  [17:16] If the body’s natural state is health, what are a couple of the mechanisms that can be used to return to our natural state?  ●  [20:50] What does Dr. Crippen mean by nothing or no thing? What’s the best way to apply a practice into your life? ●  [29:47] Dr. Crippen defines the Yellowstone Principle.  ●  [37:11] Dr. Crippen discusses what the Model A Principle is. ●  [44:01] How can someone identify their personal best step in 2024? ●  [47:52] Dr. Crippen gives an example of how he starts working with clients.  KEY TAKEAWAYS:  ●  [25:53] Stress is an endemic part of life, but you have the power to change your physiology by changing your response to it, and not getting stuck in your stress. Every morning when you wake up, ask yourself what kind of mood you are in. This practice of simply naming your mood can benefit your automatic stress response throughout the day.  ●  [36:07] Every effect has a cause, therefore if something changed in your health, there was a cause. Maybe it was a diet change, moving, the loss of a job, etc. If you can look at health more holistically, there is a better chance to find the exact cause, which means you will be able to fix the cause, and efficiently and effectively address the change in your health. ●  [39:24] Individual nutrient requirements can vary up to 75-100x person to person. There is no one size fits all diet or health regime. That’s why it’s so vital to learn how your body operates best. QUOTES:  “We’re not one size fits all machines, so just because one piece of advice worked for their brother’s sister’s cousin doesn't necessarily mean it’s right for you.” - Dr. Jeff Crippen “It’s real simple and real basic, but you can either focus on making someone less sick or you can focus on making them healthier. If you make them healthier, by definition, they’re becoming less sick. So instead of working towards treating the disease or the symptoms, you work on creating more health. As you do that, the proof is in the pudding, which is the disease or the signs of disease or symptoms go away.” - Dr. Jeff Crippen “So the more effective the placebo is, the higher the barrier, the higher the hurdle the drug has to clear. If we look at the fact that 30 to 70 percent of people can get better based on good communication, based on understanding, based on empathy, based on prayer, based on meditation, based on having a clear intention of what you want for your health, then instead of minimizing that, that could be something incredible to open up.” - Dr. Jeff Crippen “When there’s so much individual uniqueness between us, when we start making decisions, assuming people are one size fits all, when they’re actually not, we create a system that’s causing more harm than benefit, and that’s where we are now.” - Dr. Jeff Crippen  “All healing begins with you.” - Dr. Jeff Crippen "'Health is the body's natural state.'” - Jenn Trepeck "Optimists live 7-15 years longer than pessimists." - Dr. Jeff Crippen RESOURCES: Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en GUEST RESOURCES Crippen Wellness Website http://www.crippenwellness.com Timeless You(th) Book http://www.timelessyouthbook.com Jeff Crippen's Instagram http://www.instagram.com/jeffcrippen GUEST BIO: Dr. Jeff Crippen’s mission is to live life to the fullest and help others do the same. He is a Chiropractor, nutritionist and coach who enjoys helping others unlock their true potential. His passion stems from his own personal struggles. At age six, he began suffering from migraines. For the next seven years, his headaches continued to worsen despite the best medical care he and his family could find. At his lowest point, Jeff had a debilitating headache that lasted — without so much as a day of relief — for over two years. At age 13, he found the powerful combination of chiropractic and individualized nutritional care. By combining these two powerful forces, he was able to unlock his own ability to heal. For the last decade, Jeff has helped clients both through chiropractic care and nutrition at his wellness clinic in Saint Jo, Texas as well as through individualized mindset coaching with the Advanced Coaching and Leadership Center. He finds a holistic approach — optimizing spirit, mind, and body — the most efficient and effective way to create a lifetime of timeless you-th.

Maladaptive perfectionism is what Dr. Margaret Rutherford talks about during Episode 202: Is Perfectionism Hiding Your Pain? It’s important for us to just consider that and think through it to understand if we are struggling with destructive perfectionism.  ●  [28:02] Not a single food is off limits unless you decide you want it to be. Everything is just about figuring out how. It’s not what you eat, it’s how you eat. ●  [36:17] If you do LIIT, low intensity interval training, vs. HIIT, high intensity interval training, and can be consistent with it, you are better off maintaining that consistency, so you can get the daily habits that create health, vitality, and longevity.    QUOTES:  “Western medicine functions on the treatment of symptoms versus what’s the underlying cause of the issue. So that’s how a lot of people end up in the snowball of prescriptions because it’s like this one’s for the first symptom and then this is for the side effects.” - Jenn Trepeck  “A friend's husband said to me, wait a minute, I thought we were supposed to put our daughters on birth control as soon as they got their period. So it’s another thing to wait, stop, we have to take this back. We have to be our own health advocate and do our own knowledge search, get our own education.” - Jenn Trepeck  “It almost goes back to that perfectionism thing. If you use a food scale at home and then you go eat out and you're anxious, that anxiety over the portion size is worse than whatever the portion size is, you know? So the objective is to make it work and figure it out, not to let all of this stuff completely consume your life.” - Jenn Trepeck “What feels really personal and specific, is often incredibly universal." - Jenn Trepeck "Everything we've talked about is about changing your life without disrupting it, without losing your life." - Jenn Trepeck   RESOURCES: Episode 189: Should Chat GPT or AI Be Your Health Coach? https://open.spotify.com/episode/2qUWZQe6mrn0eKbLk24Xr1?si=fy57XtjoQ9KaOMipx7WRDw by Mike Gaskins  https://www.amazon.com/Name-Pill-Mike-Gaskins/dp/173379350X Resolution Revolution https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/resolution-revolution/ Become A Member of Salad with a Side of Fries https://glow.fm/saladwithasideoffries/ Jenn’s Free Menu Plan https://www.tlsslim.com/bettermylifenow/weight-loss-profile/?refEmail=0F13173F000B000F0F22031C0319140B02140C1F0F65061600 A Salad With a Side of Fries https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ A Salad With A Side Of Fries Merch https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/merch/ A Salad With a Side of Fries Instagram https://www.instagram.com/saladwithasideoffriespod/?hl=en
