Decide What's Important

• Teresa is still getting to know Vinnie and learning the conch shell’s history; she has questions. (3:00)
  
  • She asks about his genetics and his brothers.
• Vinnie shares what happened that made him pay closer attention to his health. (16:30)
  • Gaining weight can happen so slowly, like a frog in boiling water.
  • When Vinnie realized how overweight he had gotten, he decided to “end it right here.”

The Carb-loading Myth

• He discusses carb loading and what he learned. (27:00)
  • Vinnie realized the bad advice that had been given about nutrition and weight loss over the years.
• The trend of “carb loading” came from the book “Eat to Win.” (32:30)
  • It emphasized the high-carb, low-fat type of eating, which we now know is not ideal.
• Teresa brings up the challenge of taking her kids to the State Fair, where there are tons of junk food. (39:00)
  • Vinnie eases her mind by reminding her that it’s once a year.
  • The problem in today’s society is that we make every event and everything worthy of being a “treat.”
  • You have to decide what's truly an important occasion.
