Summary

Now while I hope everyone knows that we can include "junk" food into our diet in moderation and still see results, BUT including these foods into our diets TOO MUCH can cause progress to stall and can make following your calorie/macro guidelines more difficult. In this episode I cover the downsides of meeting your macros with highly processed food items as opposed to more whole food sources.
