Fat Loss & Diet, with Geoff Samson

Being that it’s the beginning of a new year, we’re continuing our conversation on the best ways to lose fat as we start off 2025! Today Todd is joined by Stark’s registered dietician, Geoff Samson. Geoff is an expert in all things fat loss and the foods you need to eat (and not eat!) to achieve your goals. On today’s episode, Todd invites Geoff to share some of that expertise: weighing in on many of the common mistakes he sees people making when trying to lose fat, the best foods to eat (and some to avoid) for fat loss, and why food can (and should!) still be enjoyable even if you’re working to achieve your goals. Todd ends the episode with a rapid fire series of questions for Geoff, asking him everything from his favorite cheat meal to the most bizarre weight loss trend he’s seen in practice. Get access to Todd's free health resource: https://podtodd.com   Learn more about Stark at: https://www.stark.health CHAPTERS00:00 Rethinking Nutrition: Beyond Chicken and Broccoli07:33 Understanding Fat Loss: Common Mistakes and Misconceptions14:46 The Role of Liquid Calories in Diet22:30 Debunking Food Myths: Good vs. Bad Foods24:56 The Evolution of Taste: Adapting to Healthier Choices27:53 The Evolution of Taste and Palate Adaptation31:11 Navigating Diet Trends: Tools for Success38:21 The Ripple Effect of Nutrition on Energy and Health40:46 Breaking Free from Emotional and Stress Eating49:27 Rapid Fire: Nutrition Trends and Personal Favorites Your health is a skill you can build.
