This is an interview with Ryan Hunt, who has lost almost 80 pounds on a low carb, "carb conscious" diet. He talks about not just achieving this goal but the lessons he learned along the way that made this a sustainable, successful, and more enjoyable journey.
To enjoy our journey, whether we are on a weight loss program or on a journey to get healthier, Ryan reckons that we need to change our mentality on how we view food. We should view food as fuel for our bodies and what we see it doing to our bodies. When we eat clean, our bodies feel great.
It's common to hear people take a punishment or reward perspective to food, which isn't sustainable. You are not punishing yourself by not eating certain foods, and neither are you rewarding yourself by eating some other type of food.
Ryan attributes his success in weight loss to customizing his journey by assessing what worked for him and making changes along the way to suit his situation and make these changes sustainable.
Listen in to hear Ryan's story and how he lost 80 pounds through a carb-conscious diet and changing his approach to food.
