38 | Cheetos Have Nutrition (And That Doesn't Mean What You Think It Does)

Have you ever called yourself “good” for eating a salad or “bad” for eating chips? In this episode, we’re talking about why food does not have the power to determine your worth, and why guilt should never be attached to what you eat. After a surprising conversation about whether Cheetos have nutrition, Michelle breaks down the difference between saying all foods contain some nutrition and saying all foods are nutritionally equal. You’ll learn how to stop labeling foods as good or bad, make choices based on how you want to feel, and move on after eating something you enjoy without guilt, punishment or the need to start over. This episode is especially helpful for women in perimenopause and midlife who want to improve their nutrition, support their energy and health, and build a more peaceful relationship with food without following another restrictive diet. Also I think I said "Happy Monday" which really shows I have no idea what day it is. hahaha. Mom life for sure. 😂😂😂 Next Steps:  📚 Apply for Grace Over Guilt Method 1-1 Coaching: https://forms.gle/FotP2wiQn6iF16o5A [https://forms.gle/FotP2wiQn6iF16o5A] 💬 Join my free community: www.facebook.com/groups/michelle.transformed/ [http://www.facebook.com/groups/michelle.transformed/] 🌐 Visit Website: transformedhealthcoaching.com

We’ll talk about perimenopause, sleep, stress, recovery, strength training, and why learning to listen to your body may be more helpful than forcing yourself to go all out every time.
