MOTIVATIONAL REMINDERS

    • Do whatever it takes to keep you motivated. (10:00)
    • Vinnie talks about the Rocky Balboa movie he watched recently; even Vinnie needs to be motivated sometimes.
  • Anna talks about getting her sauces into a new store with the help of Kurt Lepird. (16:00)
  • Starting NSNG– start with the pantry and clear it out. (19:45)
    • The best way is to dive in—it will be most effective.
    • They give other suggestions regarding temptation and when you live with others who aren’t NSNG.
  • Anna shares what some of the challenges were when starting NSNG. (23:30)
    • Out of sight, out of mind helps.

THE FOOD LIST

  • Anna reads a fantastic list of what she has in her pantry to get you started. (28:00)
  • There are things like nuts that, although considered NSNG, can be overdone.
  • Pay attention to your hunger cues and any rogue snacking.
  • Vinnie always says you can not eat any food with impunity; his friend Don is an example.
  • Anna continues the list of refrigerated items, like dairy. (39:00)
    • If you’re not a baby, you don’t need dairy; however, dairy (like cheese) is considered NSNG.
  • She gives a disclaimer about meat–buy what you can afford. (42:15)
  • Anna’s new NSNG Italian cookbook is coming out later this year, but you can preorder it!
  • The Super Bowl is coming up. Anna’s got tons of recipes for game day!
  • Vinnie explains the sugar in bacon. (53:30)
  • Anna’s list is not necessarily comprehensive here, so you can reach out to her on X to ask questions. (56:30)
    • She continues with the veggie list and gives clarity on items like sweet potatoes and squash.
  • They chat about fruit and using citrus to add acid for flavor—that is different from drinking a glass of juice.
    • Don’t forget—olives and avocados are fruits!
  • There are freezer items: make room for meats and for saving bones for broth! (1:02:15)
    • Do not use bones that someone has eaten off of as those will hold bacteria from saliva.
    • Once you start making your broth, you’ll never go back to boxed broth.
  • Anna’s recipes are so good—it makes her happy when people tell her that they didn’t use to like cooking, but now they do! (1:05:00)
  • Stay away from grain-free items such as cassava and tapioca flours and starches and they will mess with your goals. (1:06:00)
