Hate to Weight John & Emily

Big update for Hate to Weight-ers!
John and I have decided to take a break from recording regularly. We apologize for the delay in getting episodes out to you and we are continuing to work on them. I talk about it more at the beginning of the episode.
A heads up, this was recorded a few months before this was released and you may hear some older news stories we talk about. We apologize for the delay in getting these episodes to you and we thank you so much for your patience.
In This Episode:
Our AMAZING Artist-in-Residence in our Facebook Group Theresa Crout made the most incredible artwork for our Live for this week and we thank her so much! Check out her stuff on Her website | Facebook | Instagram. Emily’s Shark Week has come to visit again and she’s trying Chaste Berry + Dong Quai capsules to help with the hormones. She’s also using mindfulness to help with her stress and eating, including some eating games like the ones we played with Harriet Morris, the Eating Coach. We talk about our triggers for our own binge-eating, as well. Sometimes knowing the triggers for us helps us be a lot more mindful about how we react. Has anyone else tried Apple Cider Vinegar for dieting? What did you think? Let us know! John was in the hospital this week and he gives us the update. Thanks for all your well wishes! John has a new Dude Cooking Breakfast — Mexican Egg & Cheese Pizza! Hear the recipe on the show. And we ever get a little dating advice for you Romeos out there looking to woo a partner. Like music?

Meet Your Hosts:
John Bukenas is a podcast editor from New Jersey. He started the podcast doing keto and intermittent fasting, but is now gearing up for bariatric surgery (probably) later this summer. Emily Prokop is a podcast editor and consultant from Connecticut. She has been doing Intermittent Fasting since April 2018 and has lost about 90 pounds. She started with 16:8 and is now doing 18:6 and in maintenance mode.

We started the show and John was in a full-fledged panic attack. There’s a lot to unpack in this episode and talk through, including “fit-splaining” and a quiz all about BBQ food!
A heads up, this was recorded a few weeks before this was released and you may hear some older news stories we talk about. We apologize for the delay in getting these episodes to you and we thank you so much for your patience. Remember, we record these episodes LIVE on Thursdays in our Facebook book.

Once you know what it is, has it happened to you? Emily brings the Big Fun with a barbecue quiz! Fat’s Not Bad! Sorry all!

We start off the show with a poll from listener Michael in our Facebook group about our favorite sound drops! What’s yours? Let us know! Emily got stress hives and is wearing fingerless arm-warmers that are very WWE Jeff Hardy-like. If you know WWE, get ready to geek out a bit when Emily talks about working there. “Can I bring you a cat?” is the best question to ask Emily when she’s stressed. Don’t forget to breathe! If you have anxiety, breath is a big thing to stay mindful of. Emily started another Instagram account for all her wellness and woo stuff! @APlaceToPractice John is also dealing with anxiety. Especially when reacting to others’ opinions on social media. Is Emily truly in maintenance mode? Or is her scale broken? LOL We give out tips for trying to deal with our binge-eating tendencies.

Hello from just Emily today. John has had some health complications and was not able to record this week. Don’t worry, he is on the mend and we will hopefully have our wonderful host and editor back soon enough!
In the meantime, I wanted to bring you this special interview I did in the Hate to Weight Discussion Group with Health Coach Carolyn Cohen from the podcast Wellness While Walking! She’ll be sharing tips for us on our own health and wellness journeys.

In This Episode:
Hear about Carolyn’s journey to becoming a health coach and why she pivoted her life toward helping others with their wellness journeys. She was so kind to share lots of ways we can all get more veggies into our diets, which is a goal I know many of you in the Hate to Weight Discussion Group put up as a goal for our Sunday Goal Posts. She also debunks the myth of getting 10,000 steps as a guideline for those of us who want to walk. If you haven’t checked out her podcast, Wellness While Walking, yet, definitely check it out!

She started with 16:8 and is now doing 18:6 and in maintenance mode.

Another week of quarantine and tensions rising. John ended his last episode recording and the rest of his week was a whirlwind of anxiety, sickness and a death scare! But luckily, everyone is OK. Life isn’t easy for many of us, and while staying healthy is important, there’s a lot we’re all juggling.
We want to take this opportunity to remind yourself to have grace for yourself and others. Like drive-through? So do we, but we can still make plenty of healthy choices.

In This Episode:
John had quite a week since we last recorded. He starts off the episode talking about how getting BBQ turns into a death scare! John’s audio drops are superb! Thank you to our listeners who get a kick out of them and voted on which sound drops have been your favorite! Who else is susceptible to the power of suggestion? John and Emily are. John has some anxiety over not feeling well. And this is after the earlier death scare! Isn’t it weird that you don’t wake up while your fever’s breaking? Only after you’re all sweaty. Anger and frustration can be such a confusing emotion, especially in how people release it. Don’t forget to apologize! We apologize for the delay in getting out episodes — we really appreciate your patience with our episode releases. John is doing his own yoga poses now and made his own yoga playpen. Only 10 minutes a day! Emily’s enjoying getting her vegetables from Mexican food and Taco Bell lately. We love our fast food here at Hate to Weight and over the years, we’ve found that’s not the worst drive-thru food we could get! The Power Bowl is really filling and not too bad! Emily loves Amy’s frozen burritos. Let us know if you’ve had them and which ones you enjoy! Pulled pork sliders with coleslaw, everyone! It’s delicious! We’re all in a state of Decision Fatigue pretty much all the time. Emily put out this theory and you’ll see a Rolling Stone article about it below in the links section. It’s funny that we talked about this weeks ago, but the mask debate apparently doesn’t get old. Speaking of takeout, the Burger King Impossible Whopper is pretty good! Shout-out to Connecticut’s Duchess Restaurants  — they have a great meatless burger, too! #ICantTwitter and #ICantWichYou Emily is done with current events! Why don’t more fast food places have hot dogs? Great #WinningWednesday posts this week! Emily’s session at Livestream For the Cure went great! Spoiler alert: We didn’t do a huge blowout for Episode 100. There was a busy week for current events and we ended up skipping that episode and coming back the following week. Later, Weighters! We’d love to hear your scale and non-scale victories! Come celebrate your wins over in the Hate to Weight Discussion Group on Facebook! Can’t click on the links below?
