PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

SANTERIA

  • Not only do Vinnie and Anna talk good music, they also talk ghosts.
  • Vinnie has some weird light work going on in the room.
  • Is he haunted or is the electricity just bizarre?
  • He doesn’t believe in voodoo or anything of the like, but in this instance, he does think he has a ghost with a good sense of humor.

PROTEIN PROBLEMS

  • Vinnie has some issues with protein.
  • Part of the issue is that restaurants serve such small portions of protein.
  • He went back to a restaurant that had previously disappointed him with small amounts of salmon, and the burger disappointed him again!
  • Things have been weird at companies and restaurants all over the country, but we need to do better.
    • Feed people properly, especially when they order right!
  • Try not to count too many protein grams.
    • NSNG® is a bit more imprecise — eat without apps and diet mentality.
    • Protein is crucial but you also don’t want to eat too much as it turns to sugar.
  • Vinnie has some advice, but overall, eat until you’re sated and make sure no sugar or grains sneak in that make you eat too much.

Tracking Metrics & Honesty with Food – Episode 2050

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2050 – On this Wednesday show, Andy Schreiber and Vinnie Tortorich talk tracking metrics, Andy’s fast walking, vax cards, Expo West, future podcast topics, honesty with food, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

TRACKING METRICS

  • Having some measurable metric can be good for some people.
    • It might be helpful to have to meet some step goal or something of the like.
    • Fitbits and other similar products might be useful for this type of person.
  • But for others, metrics can be too distracting or too obsession-inducing.
    • Vinnie thinks this was the case for Howie and might be the case for him.
  • Now, he did get an advanced scuba watch.
    • Then, he realized it tracks steps.
      • He realized his minimum was around 11k steps.

EXPO WEST

  • We will be at this expo in Anaheim.
  • It’s next Wed – Fri, the 9th through 11th.
  • Find us in the ‘hot products’ section.
    • Anna will be there for one day as well.

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2047 – The ever-smiling Mary Parker joins Vinnie on this Saturday show, and the two talk staying disciplined, combatting inflammation, cutting out alcohol, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

CUTTING OUT ALCOHOL

  • Mary has generally been able to stay disciplined.
  • However, she recently struggled with it a bit.
  • She got in a new relationship and figured she was young and just wanted to ‘live.’
    • After a year, she started to see it and feel all of the inflammation.
  • Alcohol really hurt her.
    • She has cut it out for the past month.
      • Finally, she’s starting to feel better.
  • For Mary, alcohol is now off of the table.
    • It makes her feel badly and it’s totally within her control.
  • She still has work to do but she knows this is the place to start, and it will take time.

Modifying NSNG® Appropriately – Episode 2044

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2044 – On this Monday show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino talk Phil Collins, valuing relationships and loved ones, balancing protein and fat, modifying NSNG® appropriately, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

VALUING RELATIONSHIPS

  • Vinnie and Anna have both had successful and unsuccessful relationships.
  • Just because Vinnie didn’t want to marry for a long time 
  • Schedules that differ too much can make things harder.
  • Try not to be too affected by your significant others’ emotions.
    • If you base how you feel off of how they feel, that can be a recipe for disaster.
    • There’s a difference between being compassionate and being codependent.
  • Hold those you love close and try to split on good terms if you do split.
  • Vinnie recently lost an old girlfriend who he cared about very much, even after the breakup.
    • He’s been remembering all of the songs that remind him of her.
  • Life is short — try to smile and spend time with those who you love.

MODIFYING NSNG®

  • People have been asking Anna how much fat and how much protein to eat.
    • She hosts a Monday check-in — check it out.
  • Women have been saying they’re experimenting with lower fat (chicken fat, fish, avoiding butter) and a high protein diet.
    • They feel it’s kickstarting weight loss plateaus.
  • Just stick to NSNG® if you’re just starting out.
    • Don’t try to game the system.
    • If you are metabolically broken–like, really broken–cut out ALL carbs.
      • Eat fat and protein, in that order.
  • Over time, you will heal and you can add things or change it up a little bit.
    • But you need to heal first.
  • At a point, Vinnie thinks people often start eating too much fat.
    • Once your body corrects itself, you don’t need as many fats or calories.
    • Do not pull this back too much, because that is also harmful.
  • It’s a touchy-feely thing.
    • You know if you’re eating too much fat once you get used to this lifestyle.
      • If you feel you might be, consider dialing it back (but reassess if you find yourself hungry often).

Making Time For Exercise & Plogging – Episode 2043

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2043 – On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad joins Vinnie and the two talk making time for exercise, mountain biking, combatting litter with plogging, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

MAKING TIME FOR EXERCISE

  • People often need to make time to exercise.
  • The best thing you can do is walk, if you’re not in the gym.
    • Weight-bearing exercise is so important.
  • If you aren’t putting in a lot of time in the gym, try to spend that time on your feet moving around — even if it’s not an intentional workout.
  • In the event you are able, get on a bike or try to jog.
  • Any type of exercise is important.
  • Vinnie thinks plogging is a great idea.
    • You are walking or running around, and you bend over to pick up trash and throw it away on the way.
      • This is good for your health and good for the earth.
      • Add this to your routine!

Finding Motivation – Episode 2042

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2042 – On this Saturday show, Vinnie talks with phone-consult client Jeff Tudas, and the two talk Jeff’s story, avoiding carby crashes, finding motivation, using time wisely, willingness to fail, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

  •  

JEFF’S STORY

  • Jeff is a huge Carolla fan.
  • When he found Vinnie, he thought his story was very inspiring.
  • Initially, he heard Vinnie say the best snack was nut butter and coconut oil, and this shocked Jeff. He became interested.
  • To Jeff, NSNG® was too simple!
  • He was a guy who played sports, ran marathons, stayed fit. But he was doing it by eating all of the crap.
    • Once he implemented NSNG®, he had sustained energy in a way he didn’t have it when he ate carbs, and he didn’t have the crashes.
  • Jeff also recently took to the stage as a comic!
    • He’s all about pushing himself. 

FINDING MOTIVATION

  • Jeff found Vinnie during the pandemic.
  • During this time, he looked for additional motivation.
  • He heard Steve Harvey’s motivational talks and this really helped.
      • “You have not because you ask not.”
        • Sometimes you need to ask for things!
      • You need a vision that is written down to focus on and you need to write down what you want.
        • Jeff wrote down 300 things, and he’s hit about 20 thus far. 
        • Getting healthier is, of course, something he was interested in.
  • Jeff also realized you have to be willing to fail.
    • You will fail at points, and it’s important to understand that and learn from it.
  • It’s important to keep motivated even as you struggle to achieve your goals.
    • Use what you need to keep at it!
