Episode Highlights:

 

(11:33) The big secret and the most important thing that you can do is to plan ahead. For almost all of us, the food marketers and food scientists are doing all of our planning for us. They're planning exactly what to provide for us when we're hungry and we're tired and we haven't done any planning of our own.

(13:20) The most important thing that you can do if you want to be a healthy, vibrant person is to take some of that power back. Don't let them do the planning for you. You do the planning for you. So pretend you're a food marketer for yourself. So think about how your life goes. If you had your best interest at heart, and you wanted a delicious meal that was ready to go, what would you create for yourself? I think the more you can put all of this on autopilot, the better.

(18:57) One of the benefits of joining us in the Empowered Weight Loss Membership is that we have already pre-planned 26 weeks worth of meals, and we have the grocery list already, and we have a prep guide. All you have to do is buy the groceries, and then you follow the prep guide and your meals are ready 5 nights a week.
