HARD KNOCKS

  • Hard knocks can do two things:  (1) make people want to quit and have a defeatist mentality, or (2) fire people up.
  • Vinnie and Anna have had their share of difficulties.
    • However, they don’t say ‘woe is me.’
      • They use this to motivate them — anger can be a good motivator if you cultivate it!
  • Neither Vinnie nor Anna found success easily.  They both still have naysayers but they keep fighting.

HORMONES & JUNK FOOD

  • Vinnie did a consult recently with a woman who put the weight she lost back on.
  • She couldn’t stop eating junk because people kept putting it in front of her.
    • At work, for example, junk is available.
  • If you’re eating junk, it’s not because you’re weak.
  • It’s because you may not have the innate capacity to avoid junk!
    • Once we have one Oreo, our hormones kick in and it’s so difficult to stop.
  • It’s all about training your body and becoming fat adapted which can help get your hormones in check.
    • Ghrelin, leptin, and insulin are the drivers that we have to get under control.
    • We can’t simply control our hormones point blank.
