2025 Podcast Content Survey–I want to hear from you!! Everyone that participates will be entered into a drawing for an Amazon gift card! Thanks!!
If you grew up hearing diet rules like “don’t eat after 7pm” or “clean your plate,” this episode is for you. Today I’m breaking down five of the most common diet rules from the ’80s and ’90s and beyond — the ones that had a tiny bit of truth but ended up making us feel guilty, stuck, and confused around food.
We’ll talk about where these rules came from, what part of them still matters, and how to replace them with healthier, more sustainable habits that actually support your weight loss goals — without shame or rigidity.
You’ll learn:
- Why “don’t eat after 7pm” isn’t about the clock at all
- How the “clean plate club” messes with your hunger cues
- What really happens when you cut out all fat or carbs
- And how to stop letting outdated rules run your eating choices
Let’s clear out the old food guilt and bring in a little more freedom — you deserve it.
