“I am enjoying the content and finding the suggestions to be spot on and evidence based. I would like to suggest that there is a defensive tone noted throughout especially when discussing cultural attitudes towards food and wellness and what mostly well intentioned people say. I experienced all those statements but I do not have that same reaction. Mostly people think it’s a compliment to say “too skinny” and then there are those unconsciously trying to sabotage the wellness of others they care about. Since I know that is where it comes from, it doesn’t bother me much in fact it tells me something about them and then I can curate how much, if any, time I wish to spend around those people. I would like to hear more specifically about your experience with participation in men’s physique competition as it is something I am considering. I do believe I am suffering from “quitters attitude” especially when I hear about the “tanning” measures that are required and what you said about rice cakes and ketchup made me want to throw in the towel. Maybe you can have other guests on that can share their experiences with this competition? I’m binging every episode! Thank you. D. Malpica”
