Episode 2261 – BEST OF: On this show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk Vinnie’s mom, “life into living” during the holidays, day drinking (or not), marketing sugar, affordable NSNG®, and more.
- Â
DURING THE HOLIDAYS
- Vinnie’s mom, Marie, had surgery several months ago,
- He went home to take care of her.
- At the time, she weighed close to 200 lbs.
- Vinnie had his parents eat NSNG® while he was there, and they enjoyed it more than they thought.
- Since then, they have largely kept up eating healthily — especially his mom.
- Vinnie’s mom is now down to 135 lbs!
- This weight loss allowed her to do the whole Natchez Trace Parkway drive.
- For the Christmas show, you might have heard Marie talk about lots of non-NSNG® foods.
- Vinnie gets it!
- If he were there, he’d probably have eaten some of the unhealthy foods to a degree.Â
- But the next meal, he’d be back to strict NSNG®.
- Anna also puts some holiday LIL.
- Her family has a tradition of tamales on Christmas Eve.
- It’s good to avoid talking about diet mentality for one meal.
- Simply put, it’s easier to just eat and enjoy for one meal.
- However, if you feel you can’t do LIL without spinning out of control, stick to your guns.
- Simply put, it’s easier to just eat and enjoy for one meal.
MARKETING SUGAR
- Part of why people get so out of control over the holidays is the marketing.
- We’ve turned something that should be about two days of really indulging (Thanksgiving and Christmas), and made it over a month.
- The “pumpkin spice” movement and the like have made this so much worse.
