Episode 2223 - On this Sunday's show, Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad talk about fast initial weight loss, how your liver keeps score, and "white knuckling" it all, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/your-liver-keeps-score-episode-2223 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNGĀ® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOUR LIVER KEEPS SCORE Gina is excited as she continues to lose weight with steady progress. (1:25) Vinnie chats about one of his brothers who has been struggling with weight loss for years. (4:00) His brother is always focusing on how much initial weight loss he loses but then struggles when the numbers slow down. A lot of people struggle because of unrealistic expectations; as a result, Vinnie tries to help with their perspective. Gina reminds us that "perfect is the enemy of good." Vinnie is reminded of a story he has about Adam Carolla and how the conversation and excuses build up. Small bites turn into big cheats, and your liver doesn't have a chance to level out. Your liver keeps score and doesn't care what your brain tries to justify. Vinnie and Gina chat about certain folks and their habits, which are only ways of "white knuckling" through things, instead of just keeping NSNG and being truly sated. (13:15) This reminds Gina of her recent anniversary dinner with her husband and how they enjoyed some great food and were satisfied without having to go all in on the NSNGĀ® items.(18:325) They chat a little further about some Los Angeles dining and a particularly magical salad.
