You're listening to Shut Up and Choose. The no bullshit, no excuses podcast for people who swear they wanna lose weight, but keep choosing everything that stops them. And before we continue, if you're gonna mention mom and act like a fucking pussy the entire time, skip this one. This dude dropped 140 pounds with no shots, no diets, no pills, and not one single fucking membership slide at the gym. Just real choices that fit real life. If you're tired of gimmick, tired of the bullshitting, and ready for somebody to finally call you out and tell you the truth, you are in the right place. Stop coming. Start choosing. This is shop and choose. Now, here's Jonathan.

Jonathan Ressler: 1:07

Hey, welcome back to Shullip and Choose. This is weight loss and how you do it in real life. So today I want to talk about all the fake healthy foods that are keeping you fat. So listen carefully, because this one's gonna piss you off. The healthy foods you keep eating are the reason you're not losing weight. It's not because you're stupid, it's not because you're lazy, it's because you were sold a lie and never questioned it. You cut out the burgers, the fries, you skip dessert, you do all kinds of shit. Then you turn around and eat foods that pack more calories than the junk you're proud of avoiding. And when nothing changes, you stand on the scale confused, frustrated, and convinced that your body's broken. The truth is, it's not. You're eating foods that look healthy and wondering why the math doesn't work. And here's the part that nobody tells you weight loss does not care about your intentions. It doesn't care about the buzzwords and all that crap. It doesn't care what aisle the food came from or how clean the label looks. It only responds to calories, protein, and portion size. And the foods you trust the most are often the worst offenders. So turn up your volume a little bit, pay attention. You're not losing weight because you're overconsuming food that makes you feel virtuous while quietly blowing your calorie budget out of the water. So shit like granola, smoothies, protein bars, accept e bowls, that sounds like a good one. Organic snacks that look innocent and eat like candy. You eat them freely and without any restriction because they feel safe. That feeling is the trap. You assume that a food helps because it has words like natural, organic, plant-based, gluten-free, or some super food name slapped on the front. You assume that if it's sold in the wellness aisle, it must be working in your favor. But again, it's not. The scale doesn't recognize any of that fucking branding, and you don't get any rewards for effort points. Calories still count even when the food looks wholesome. And that's why you feel stuck. You think that you're doing the right thing, you think that you're being disciplined, and you think that you're making smart choices. And when the scale refuses to move, you blame your metabolism, your age, uh your hormones, or your stress. You never think to question the foods that you trust the most. And that's the real problem. You're not eating junk, you're eating marketed calories. You're consuming foods designed to make you overeat while convincing you they're helping you because it feels healthy eating them, you don't stop. You don't measure it, and you don't question the portions, you just keep eating it, and then nothing changes. Today we're not talking about diets or cutting out everything you enjoy. We're talking about the specific foods that are sabotaging your weight loss while making you believe that they're on your side. If you want the scale to move, you need to stop trusting labels and start paying attention to reality. Because if a food needs marketing to convince you that it's healthy, there's a really fucking good chance that it's the reason you're still stuck. Fake healthy foods work because they don't look like a mistake. They're not wrapped in neon colors, they're not sitting next to the candy bars most of the time, and they don't scream indulgence. They whisper to you responsibility, they signal discipline, and they look like the kind of choice a good person would make. And that's the trap. These foods are engineered to trigger trust in you before it ever hits your mouth. They have clean packaging and earth tones, words like natural, organic, plant-based, which is disgusting anyway, but whole superfood, protein pattern. They're designed to lower your guard. Once your guard is down, you stop paying attention. Because you assume that effort equals effectiveness and intention equals results. You assume that that wholesome appearance equals fat loss. But none of those assumptions are true. This is what people miss. The food industry doesn't get paid when you lose weight, it gets paid when you feel good buying the product. And fake healthy foods are built to make you feel smart and disciplined and virtuous, all at the point of purchase. And once that feeling hits, the transaction is complete. You stop asking the important questions like, how many calories are in this? I know I've eaten things that are supposed to be healthy. I never looked at the calories, or how much protein does it actually have? If you look at the protein label on some of those things, you'll be shocked at how low the protein is or how much you have to eat to get that level of protein. You never ask yourself, how easy is this to overeat? Those questions disappear because the branding already told you what you wanted to hear. This is what people mean when they talk about a health halo. The food looks healthy, so you treat it like it doesn't count. You eat more of it. You snack on it mindlessly, and you stop tracking, you stop measuring, you stop noticing. You would never eat half a box of cookies and pretend it didn't matter, but you'll crush a bag of organic granola clusters without blinking because it feels responsible. I know I used to buy that kind of stuff in Costco and eat the whole bag because hey, it's healthy, right? That's not ignorance, that's conditioning. The wellness aisle is one of the most dangerous places for someone trying to lose weight. Not because everything there is bad, it's not, but because everything there looks safe and it trains you to trust marketing over math. You see a smoothie shop. I used to think, oh, jumba juice, that feels fresh, and fresh equals light. Or you see a protein bar and think, hey, that equals filling, right? Or you see an asai bowl and think fruit equals fat loss. And a lot of times it does, but in this case, it doesn't. What you don't see is the calorie density. And what you don't notice is how easy it is to eat way past what your body actually needs. Fake healthy foods also remove friction. They're convenient, they're portable, they're easy. You don't have to cook, there's you don't have to plan, you don't have to stop. And convenience is another permission slip to overeat. You eat that stuff quickly, you eat it when you're distracted, and you eat them on top of your real meals, not instead of on top of your real meals. And because they don't feel like cheating, you don't adjust later, you don't compensate, you just stack those calories on and then move on. Another reason these foods fool people is moral framework. People label foods as good and bad. That's fucking insane. You know, I always talk about don't label foods good or bad, but people label foods as good or bad instead of effective or ineffective. When a food is labeled good, like these health food items, it feels wrong to question. It feels negative and out of order to do that. So instead of asking, is this helping me lose weight? People ask, is this healthy? Those are not the same question. A food can be nutritious but still sabotage your fat loss. Here's another one. It can be organic. That's a great phrase. I love that phrase. That was always my escape. It can be organic and still keep you stuck. And the food can be plant-based and still blow your entire calorie intake. If you want to hear my thoughts on plant-based foods, I have a podcast on that. You should check that one out. But the bottom line is weight loss responds to numbers, not narratives. So fake healthy foods thrive because they give people the emotional permission to stop thinking. They outsource your decision making to packaging and to a whole bunch of fucked up buzzwords. And once the thinking starts, the overeating always follows. That's why people feel blindsided. They're not failing because they're eating junk, they're failing because they're trusting food that doesn't deserve the trust. And until you understand how fake healthy foods earn your trust, you'll keep eating them and wondering why nothing changes. So I'm going to stop being vague here for a minute and start naming names because this is where people stay confused. They hear fake healthy foods and think it must be some obscure product they never eat. It doesn't. It means the foods you eat regularly and feel good about. So the first one is granola. Granola is one of the most effective ways to overeat calories while convincing yourself you're being responsible. I mean, it looks harmless, right? You got oats, nuts, honey, seeds. Sounds like good shit. The problem is the density. Granola packs an absurd amount of calories into a small volume, and nobody eats the serving size. Nobody. If you tell me you eat the serving size, you're a fucking liar. Nobody eats a serving size. So you pour it freely because it feels like breakfast food. It feels like a wholesome snack. You sprinkle it on yogurt, and suddenly a 150-calorie base becomes a 600-calorie bowl. And because it's crunchy and sweet, you keep adding more without noticing. Granola is not evil, it's just brutally easy to overeat. And if you're trying to lose weight, ease of overeating matters more than the ingredient list. So let's talk about the next one: smoothies. Ah, I used to love those smoothies. Smoothies are one of the most misunderstood foods in the modern diet. People treat them like health insurance. It's fruit and grains, protein powders, all kinds of shit you can put in there, add-ons, all blended into a cup. What they don't treat them like is what they actually are: a liquid calorie delivery system. When you blend food, you remove chewing. You drink calories far faster than you could ever eat them. A smoothie looks like that and can easily match or exceed the calories of a full meal. Bananas, nut butter, oats, dates, honey, juice, whatever. It all adds up fast. And here's the problem: you don't feel full afterwards. Liquid calories don't shut down hunger the same way that solid food does. So you drink the smoothie, you feel like, hey, I'm doing the I'm doing a health thing here, you feel virtuous, and then you eat again an hour later. Now you've stacked calories without realizing it. The third thing is protein bars. Protein bars are, of course, they're great for you, right? That's what I thought. Protein bars are candy with better PR. Some of them have decent protein, but a lot of them don't. Almost all of them are engineered to taste good enough to crave. That means sugar, fats, and fillers designed to keep you coming back. People eat protein bars as snacks on top of their meal in the car between meetings. And because the word protein is on the wrapper, they stop thinking. They don't count it as food. They treat it as a functional fuel. It's not. If your protein bar tastes like dessert, it's not helping you lose weight. It's helping you overeat while feeling disciplined. The fourth one, aseebos. Asaebos are desserts pretending to be meals. Frozen fruit bases, nut butters, granola toppings, honey drizzle seeds, coconut flakes. There's so much stuff there. They all look beautiful. They ain't photograph well, they look good on Instagram. They also routinely clock in at 800 to 1200 calories. And because they're fruit-based, people eat them without restraint. They assume that fruit equals fat loss, and they assume that the antioxidants cancel out the calories. They assume freshness means light. None of that is true. Asae bowls spike blood sugar, crash fast, and leave people hungry again in a few minutes. They feel healthy, but they don't behave that way in your body. The fifth one, and I fell for this one all the time, is organic snacks. This one hurts because people defend it hard. Organic chips, that alone should tell you that they're not good for you. But organic crackers, organic cookies, organic trail mix, same calories, same portions, same problem. Organic does not mean weight loss friendly. It just means the ingredients were sourced differently. People eat organic snacks by the handful because they feel safe. They snack without measuring, they snack without stopping, and stack hundreds of calories between meals. I know I'm guilty of that while they're still wondering why the scale is frozen in place. And here's the pattern across all those foods. They're easy to eat, they're even easier to overeat, and they feel virtuous. That combination is deadly for fat loss. These individual foods are not mistakes in isolation. They become a problem because people trust them blindly and they eat them all the time. They eat them casually and they never adjust anywhere else. Weight loss doesn't fail because of one food. It fails because of repeated, unexamined choices that feel healthy but act like junk. They're the biggest offenders because they hide right in plain sight. So here's the real problem behind these choices. The real problem is not granola, it's not smoothies, it's not the protein bars, the acceep bowls. The real problem is that people trust labels instead of numbers. They outsource thinking to packaging and let words like healthy, organic, natural, superfood do the work that math is supposed to do. And once that happens, your awareness disappears. You stop asking how much, you stop asking how often. You stop asking whether the choice is actually helping. And you replace those questions with a feeling. Hey, I feel like I'm eating healthy. That feeling is the problem. Weight loss doesn't respond to foods that make you feel emotionally safe. It responds to intake. Calories in, calories out, protein, portion size, frequency, none of those change because the food feels wholesome. But when people feel healthy eating something, they unconsciously give themselves permission to eat more of it. You eat larger portions, you snack more freely, and you stop tracking and you stop adjusting and you stop paying attention. That permission is what sabotages progress. But here's what happens in real life. Someone cuts out the obvious junk food and all the shit. So no more fast food, no more soda, no more desserts. And they start to feel disciplined and proud. Then they replace those foods with the fake healthy shit. Granola becomes the daily add-on, guilty. Smoothies become a routine, guilty. Protein bars become snacks, guilty, guilty, guilty. Organic treats become normal. Nothing feels reckless there, nothing feels excessive. So nothing ever gets questioned. Calories quietly creep up, your hunger patterns get worse because you're eating more, your energy stays flat-lined, and when the scale doesn't move, the frustration sets in. And this is where you're going wrong. Instead of questioning the foods you trust, you question yourself. You assume your metabolism is broken, you assume that your age is caught up with them, or that your hormones are the issue, or that weight loss is harder for them than it is for everyone else. None of that is true. It's all bullshit. You're simply overeating foods that don't register as overeating in your mind. Fake healthy foods disconnect cause and effect. People can't see the relationship between what they're eating and what's happening on the scale because the foods don't match the story you've been told about them. Another layer to this problem is proportion blindness. When someone eats cake, they fucking notice. When someone eats a bowl of granola or a smoothie, you don't. The food doesn't trigger caution, it triggers comfort. And comfort basically removes all your limits. You don't need to binge on healthy foods for them to stall your fat loss. You just need to eat them consistently without awareness. A few hundred extra calories a day is enough to stop your progress completely. And because you believe they're doing the right thing, you don't compensate later. You don't reduce your portions to the next meal, you don't skip a snack, and you just keep stacking this shit on top of each other. And that creates that fucking cruel loop where you start to try harder, you restrict elsewhere, you get hungrier, and you lean on the same fake, healthy, dog shit food for relief. The foods that are sabotaging progress become the emotional anchors because they feel safe and they feel familiar and they actually feel like effort. That's why fake healthy foods are more dangerous than obvious junk. Junk food raises alarms. You eat a bag of chips, you know you fucked up. Fake healthy foods silence those alarms. And the final issue, I think, is trust. People trust marketing more than data and the vibes more than outcomes. They trust how a food fits their identity instead of how it fits their goal. If your goal is weight loss, the only relevant question is whether a food helps create a calorie deficit you can sustain. Not whether it's trendy, not whether it's praised online by the online idiots, not whether it aligns with a wellness identity. Fake foods thrive because they feel aligned with who people want to be, even when they're misaligned with the result they want. Until you stop trusting labels and start paying attention to numbers, you're going to keep doing what feels right and wondering why nothing changes. That's the real problem behind these choices. So, fake healthy foods do not stall weight loss because they're evil. They stall weight loss because they distort reality and they create a gap between what you think you're doing and what's actually happening. That gap is where the progress dies. And here's basically how it plays out. You eat what you believe is a good choice. Let's say a smoothie or granola bowl, a protein bar, an acai bowl. You feel disciplined, you feel responsible, and you feel like you're on track. That feeling matters because it changes how you behave for the rest of the day. You're not adjusting later because you ate some high-calorie food, and you don't pull back in the next meal thinking about what you ate, and you don't question your portions. Why would you? You already did the right thing. But the calorie math doesn't give a shit about moral victories, it only responds to totals. These foods spike your calorie intake quickly and quietly. You eat or drink them fast. You barely register fullness, and because they digest so quickly, hunger comes back sooner than you. Expected. Now, you're eating again. Not because you're weak, because your body's responding normally. This is the first sabotage point. Calorie spike, hunger returns fast. Then comes a second one: misinterpretation. Because you feel like you're eating well, you assume the problem must be elsewhere. You assume that your metabolism is slower, that your age matters more than it does, or that your hormones are working against you. You assume weight loss is harder for you than anyone else. And that assumption is really dangerous. It pulls your attention away from the actual lever you control, which is intake. It's what you eat. Instead of adjusting food choices, you tighten restriction emotionally. You try harder mentally, you add stress, you start white-knuckling your way through meals, and that only increases reliance on the same fake healthy foods because they feel safe under pressure. Now the sabotage deepens. You're eating foods that don't satisfy you at all. You're consuming more calories than you realize, and you're frustrated because effort is high and the results are low. That frustration isn't neutral. It pushes people towards extremes. So they either quit completely or they double down on restriction. And as you know, neither one of those things works. The scale doesn't move, not because you're doing nothing, but because you're doing the wrong things consistently. And here's the worst part fake healthy foods give you plausible deniability. When your progress falls, you can say, hey, but I'm eating healthy. That sentence shuts down all investigation. It prevents curiosity and it blocks you from correcting what you're doing wrong. People say stuck for months saying that one line. I don't understand. I'm eating healthy. What they mean is I'm eating foods I trust and I don't want to question. Weight loss actually requires feedback loops. You do something, you observe the result. If it doesn't work, you adjust. Fake healthy foods break that loop because the story doesn't match the outcome. People ignore the outcome and protect their story. That is sabotage. Another layer to this sabotage is frequency. These foods are easy to eat often and a lot of smoothies every day, bars between meals, granola sprinkled everywhere, snacks just grazing through the afternoon. None of it feels excessive, but it all adds up. Weight loss doesn't fail because of one large mistake, it fails because of small, repeated miscalculations that never get corrected. And then the final sabotage here, honestly, is psychological. When you believe you're doing the right thing and nothing's working, your motivation takes a shit. It goes out the window. People stop trusting the process and they stop believing that the results are actual possible. They just assume that something is wrong with them. That belief is heavier than any food. Fake healthy foods don't just add calories, they add confusion and frustration and they erode your confidence. And once that confidence drops, your consistency drops with it. People aren't failing because they're eating junk. They're failing because they're eating foods that sabotage weight loss while convincing themselves they're doing the right thing. Until you can solve that disconnect, the effort is going to stay high and the results are going to stay flat. That's how these choices quietly kill your progress. And remember, it's all about choices. So how do you fix it? Fixing it doesn't require a new diet. It doesn't require cutting out everything you enjoy. In fact, that's the biggest mistake you can make. If your eating becomes miserable, you're not going to stick with it. And it doesn't require suffering or pretending you suddenly love deprivation. Deprivation never works long term. Sure, it might work for a couple weeks, a couple days, a couple hours, but sooner or later you're going to fall back. What it does require is replacing the foods that lie to you with the foods that behave predictably. That's it. The goal is not to eat healthier. The goal is to eat foods that actually support fat loss without constant negotiation. So let me walk you through a couple swaps that actually matter. First, those granola bombs. If granola is part of your daily routine, remove it. Not emotionally, but actually mechanically. Granola is calorie dense, easy to overeat, and adds sweetness without any lasting fullness. The swap is simple. Greek yogurt without the granola. Add berries if you want sweetness, or add cinnamon if you want flavor. You keep the protein high, you keep the calories controlled, and you remove the silent calorie load. This one swap alone fixes a huge percentage of salt progress because it eliminates an automatic overeating trigger. Second one is if you're drinking smoothies, I was drinking smoothies all the time. If your smoothie replaces a meal and keeps you full for hours, fine. That's rare. Most smoothies actually do the opposite. They drink easily, they digest quickly, and they leave you hungry again. The fix isn't adding more powders. The fix is eating real food. Eat the fruit instead of blending it. Eat a solid protein source. Chew your meals. Chewing matters, and volume matters, and time matters. So when you eat real food, hunger shuts down properly. When you drink your calories, bottom line, it doesn't. So if you love smoothies, keep them small and simple. Protein, ice, maybe one fruit, no fucking peanut butter, nut butters, no oats, no superfood bullshit add-ons. If it needs a spoon to feel like a meal, it's not helping you lose weight. Third thing, protein bars. Stop eating these things like meals. They're not meals, they're emergency tools. If you're starving and stuck somewhere with no options, a bar is better than eating a bag of candy. But that's where the usefulness ends. The swap is real food. Things like eggs and chicken and Greek yogurt and cottage cheese. Foods that require chewing and slow you down win every single time. If a bar tastes like dessert, if it behaves like dessert, call it what it is and stop pretending it's doing you a favor. It's not. Fourth is the asay bowls we talked about. Just take them out of your diet. They're dessert. Not occasionally, always. There's no version of an asay bowl that supports fat loss unless the portion is tiny, and nobody orders fucking tiny. You know that. The swap is simple. Eat fruit on its own, protein on its own, not blended, not top, not disguised. You don't need everything on bowl. You're not a fucking dog. You need foods that let you stop eating when you're done. When we talk about organic snacks, organic doesn't change portion size. Organic doesn't reduce calories, and organic doesn't make snacking safer. The swap is not another snack. The swap is structure. Eat real meals, eat enough protein, and stop grazing. When meals are solid and consistent, the urge to snack drops naturally. You don't need to fight snacking. You need to remove the conditions that create it. Here's a unifying principle between all these swaps. You replace foods that are easy to overeat with foods that are hard to overeat. That's it. You replace foods that digest fast with foods that digest slowly. You replace foods that feel virtuous with foods that behave predictably. And you replace convenience calorie with structured meals. These swaps work because they remove decision making. You stop guessing, you stop trusting, and you stop arguing with yourself. Weight loss becomes boring. It's predictable and it's repeatable. Most people fail because they try to upgrade everything at once. You don't need to. Fix the obvious bullshit artists first. The foods that look healthy and act like junk. When those are gone, your hunger stabilizes, your calories drop without obsession, and the scale finally starts responding. Not because you tried harder, because you stopped letting these fake healthy foods lie to you. So here's what I want you to remember. If food needs marketing, convince you it's healthy, it's not helping you lose weight. I'm gonna say that again. If a food needs marketing to convince you it's healthy, it's not helping you lose weight. If a food needs packaging or buzzwords or influences, especially influences, or a story to justify its place in your diet, it's already suspect. Real food doesn't need persuasion. Real food doesn't need a paragraph on the label explaining to you why you should trust it. Real food doesn't need to rebrand itself every five years to stay relevant. As a marketer, I can tell you marketing exists for one reason: to get you to buy and eat more of something. It's not to help you lose weight. The moment you understand that, your decision making gets simpler. When you pick up a product and the front of the package of screen where it's like clean, superfood, plant-powered, protein-packed, keto-friendly, gut healthy, or heart smart, that's not education. That's persuasion. It's designed to bypass logic and trigger identity. It wants you to think this is for someone like me. And once you think that, you stop asking the only question that matters. How many calories are in this? Marketing replaces awareness. That's why fake foods are so effective. They don't ask you to think, they ask you to trust. And trust is dangerous when your goal is weight loss. So here's the rule in practice. If you need to be convinced the food is healthy, it probably isn't useful for weight loss. If the food is obvious, boring, and requires no explanation, it usually works better. If the food looks like something your grandparents wouldn't recognize, it tends to behave predictably. Eggs don't need any marking. Chicken doesn't need any branding, and Greek yogurt doesn't have a slogan. And fruit doesn't have a mission statement. You know what these foods have in common? They're not exciting, they're boring, they're not trending, they don't photograph well, and they work. The foods that still progress are almost always the one that comes with a story. The rule also protects you from overthinking. Instead of asking, is this healthy, you ask, is this helping me lose weight? Instead of trusting the label, you trust the outcome. And instead of eating on autopilot, you slow down just enough to evaluate. That pauses everything. Most people don't need more discipline, they need fewer traps. This rule removes the traps automatically and it filters out foods that rely on emotional appeal instead of nutritional behavior. Another benefit of the rule is consistency. When you stop rotating through trendy foods and start relying on boring staples, your intake stabilizes. Hunger becomes more predictable. Your portions stop creeping into these massive portions, and meals stop turning into experiments. Weight loss becomes mechanical instead of emotional. And that's the goal. You're not trying to win a fucking wellness contest. Hopefully, you're not trying to impress anyone with how clean you eat. What you are trying to do is create a calorie deficit you can sustain without feeling like you're constantly fighting yourself. Marketing, honestly, fights you and structure supports you. So here's the final truth fake healthy foods are not evil, they're just misaligned with your goal. The problem is not that they exist, the problem is that you trust them blindly. Once you apply the rule, the confusion disappears. Again, if food needs convincing, question it. If the food needs justification, measure it. If food needs hype, limit it. And if the scale hasn't been moving, start there. Stop eating healthy foods that require storage and start eating foods that speak for themselves. That one rule will save you years of frustration. Once you see it, you'll never unsee it. So at this point, there's nothing left to debate. You know why the scale hasn't been moving. You weren't failing. You were trusting food that never deserved your trust. You were eating food that looked healthy, sounded healthy, felt healthy, while quietly sabotaging your progress. And because the story felt right, you never questioned the outcome. That ends right now. Weight loss doesn't reward effort, it doesn't reward your intentions, and it doesn't reward some fucked up identity you're trying to have. It rewards behavior. You need to stop eating foods that lie to you and start eating foods that behave predictably. That's it. So I lost 140 pounds and kept it off by stripping away the nonsense, the bullshit, and the noise. No diets, no gym obsession, no pretending life was easy. I stopped trusting labels. I stopped chasing the trends I was on every trend diet on the sun, and I stopped letting food marketing make decisions for me. I ate simply and I ate the same stuff over and over again, and I ate in a way that my body actually could respond to. That approach works because it survives real life. If you want help staying grounded in reality instead of pulled back into the wellness circus, start with my free weekly tips. It's one short message every week that cuts through the noise and reminds you what actually matters when confusion creeps back in. They take less than a minute to read and they keep you from drifting. You can get them on my website at jonathanwrestle.com. If you want the full framework behind everything you heard here today, read my book, Shut Up and Choose. It's not a diet book. It's not going to tell you what foods to eat or give you a fragile set of rules. It teaches you how to make choices that actually work and why willpower keeps failing you and how to stop repeating the same year over and over again. It's the exact system I use to lose 140 pounds without dieting or ever visiting the gym. You can get that on Amazon. Again, it's called Shut Up and Choose Like the Podcast. And if you're done dabbling and ready to end the cycle completely, I work one-on-one with people who are serious about results. It's not comforting, it's not supportive, and it's not for people who want encouragement while they keep doing the same shit. It's direct, it's demanding, and it's built around your real life so the results last. It's a final rule to take with you. If a food needs marketing to convince you it's healthy, it's not helping you lose weight. Stop eating stories, stop eating for results, make the choice, then shut up and choose.
