Don’t worry. This is not an episode about shaming foods or nutrients, like alcohol and sugar, and making you feel guilty about your food choices over the festive season.

We’re not judgmental nor do we make you feel guilty about food at The Healthy Eating Hub. It’s not what we do.

This episode is a compilation of traditional Christmas foods that are just plain gross. Foods that you know might be served on your family’s table but you avoid it at all costs, simply because you can’t stand it!

To help me put this episode together I rallied the troops over on my Facebook page for their worst Christmas foods ever!

You may have good nutritional knowledge and be willing to make positive changes to your eating habits but without adequate kitchen skills you’ll be left feeling frustrated and bored. If you can’t translate that nutrition information into a meal on your plate, three times per day, seven days per week, 52 weeks per year, what’s the point?

You don’t need to be a masterchef, or even like cooking, but you do need the ability to create tasty and enjoyable food without too much fuss. Otherwise, you’ll easily default back to tasty, convenient foods when you’re tired of plain chicken and boiled broccoli.

In this episode, I’ve got 12 kitchen items that I believe are essential for eating healthy and enjoyable meals!

I’ve been helping people lose weight for a long time. After years of chatting to people about their health, their food, their exercise, their daily habits and all the factors that go into successful weight loss, not to mention losing weight myself, I’ve concluded a few things:

1. Most people are not successful at losing weight.
2. If people happen to be successful at losing weight, they’re not successful at keeping it off.

Weight loss is super hard. Maintaining weight loss is even harder, for a whole bunch of different reasons. And if I were to get into the biochemistry of how our bodies function metabolically and why it’s so hard, I’d need 100s of podcast episodes. Just know that it’s complicated.

Despite the complications, there are some common mistakes that many people make. One or more of these reasons might be why, year after year, you’re still “trying to lose weight” – often frustrated and over the constant mind games!

In this episode I’m going to chat through the main reasons you’re not losing weight and what you can do about it.
