In today’s podcast, Chris and Jill talk with Karen Parrott, a popular blogger who writes about her weight loss journey and maintaining her weight loss. You can find her blog at Garden Girl, Weight Maintenance and Food Sobriety.
In this episode, we talk with Karen about:
Karen uses about 20 different weight maintenance tools with abstaining from her binge triggers as the top tool.
One of her weight maintenance tools is following a low carb eating plan. She identified foods that cause her problems by following an Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) and doesn't eat dairy, gluten, or sugar.
Karen says that we all need to figure out what works best for each of us. Some of us can eat a lot of carbs while others cannot.
Perhaps the best advice that Karen gives is not to be apologetic about what you eat or don’t eat.
