If the thought of eating chicken, rice, and broccoli makes you want to gag—but you’re trying to lose fat—this episode is for you! I’ve worked with dozens of clients, and every single one of them lost fat while following a diet tailored to their own preferences.

I’ll walk you through how to create a diet you actually enjoy while still achieving fat loss.
