EPISODE 004: Do whole foods matter if I’m hitting my macros?

LISTEN NOW: CLICK HERE!

Have you ever wondered if you still need to care about whole foods if you’re tracking macros?

Lots of diets like Whole30, Noom, and Weight Watchers assign value to “good and bad foods” encouraging whole foods, but with macro counting, you may wonder if fruits and vegetables matter if you’re hitting your macros with processed food!

Well I’m here to discuss it! This week, Dani Patton joins me to talk all about macros and wellness and whole foods when it comes to putting together a diet that feels really good and feels really sustainable. 

We cover: 

  • Dani’s discovery of macro counting and why she believes macro tracking works for results and long-term health

  • How she approaches whole foods in her diet

  • If we really should cut out all sugar and seed oils

  • How whole foods played a role in her fertility journey last year

  • If an 80/20 lifestyle is superior to others

  • How to approach health when you’re just starting out

  • The power of maintenance (we both had major breakthroughs here)

  • How she’s approached macros during her pregnancy 

  • Dani’s new macro course for moms & pregnant women

This episode is a 10/10 and a conversation I enjoyed thoroughly.
