from Strong, Well Fed and Outspoken · host Rusty aka the Miss Frizzle of Fitness
The holidays are here and with them come parties, potlucks, and way too many snack tables. Between family dinners, office goodies, and trays of appetizers, it’s easy to find yourself picking at food all day without even realizing it.Here’s the truth: grazing isn’t always the enemy. It can actually work in your favour but only when it’s done with a little awareness and intention.With so many events (and so many snacks) this time of year, it’s easy to fall into mindless eating. It doesn’t have to be that way. Learning to notice when you’re grazing out of boredom, stress, or habit is the first step toward feeling more in control and still enjoying all your favourite holiday foods.If you’ve ever caught yourself circling the snack table one too many times, this episode is definitely for you.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction00:26 Holiday Season and Food01:49 Navigating Holiday Challenges05:06 Understanding Grazing08:23 Compulsive vs. Non-Compulsive Grazing11:59 Emotional and Situational Grazing17:52 Identifying and Addressing Grazing Habits22:38 Reflecting on Emotions Before Eating23:08 Benefits of Grazing23:22 Grazing for Different Lifestyles26:06 Intentional Grazing vs. Emotional Eating31:17 Practical Tips for Mindful Grazing34:07 Understanding Your Relationship with Food41:10 Final Thoughts and EncouragementJoin Our Fitness CommunityIf you're ready to receive truly tailored to YOU 1 on 1 coaching that focuses on more than just the workouts and nutrition , fill out our coaching form HereWant to workout with ME on my app (A 3 day FREE Trial) HereEpisode Links:Mobility ebook HereFollow Rusty on InstagramFollow Nel on InstagramGet 15% off my favourite protein powder HERE
