Stop Dieting in Extremes: Sustainable Nutrition with Gretchen Comey

We live in a world of extremes with health and nutrition — all in or all out, “on track” or “off the rails.” And for so many people, progress gets replaced by frustration.In today’s episode of The Progress Zone, I sit down with nutritionist Gretchen Comey to talk about sustainable habits that actually last. We get into why grace matters, how to step out of diet culture extremes, and how to build a healthy relationship with food without chasing perfection.In this conversation, we cover:Why the all-or-nothing mindset keeps people stuckThe real power of macros (and what they actually are)How tracking can create awareness without obsessionWhy protein, water, and fiber are foundationalThe “budget” approach to nutrition (and why it works)How to stay consistent during travel, stress, and busy seasonsWhy community and accountability change everythingHow to “stack the wins” instead of beating yourself upIf you’ve ever felt like one “bad meal” ruins your whole day — this episode will help you reset your mindset and build a plan that fits real life.Connect with The Progress Zone Podcast:• Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theprogresszonepodcast/• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theprogresszonepodcast• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-progress-zone-podcast• Book – https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DLT87L5X• YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@TheProgressZonePodcast• Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-progress-zone-podcast-with-jody-donaldson/id1840025042• Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0Gesdv6xTdIvajM2QnXQHP?si=bkSU8MfVTlmSEthNEkgawQ
