Want to like but think it’s toxic

“I really want to like this podcast because Jordan seems like such a charismatic and upbeat guy, but I just find the whole premise of his take on dieting and fitness to be pretty toxic and obsessive. He’s always roping his guests into a discussion of how “other people” are wrong when they don’t want to step on the scale every day or track their calories or weigh their food, insisting that this resistance comes from a place of fear and/or laziness. But what if it comes from a place of knowing that life is more than just numbers and competing with yourself about how many pounds you gain/lose day-to-day or can deadlift at the gym? It’s like these people forget that there’s a whole world out there, and it’s pretty upsetting and I personally find it triggering. I feel ready to give up on this after hearing Patti’s Story Part 2 where she practically wept about the fact that she can eat 2150 calories and not 1500 calories a day. It’s like she’s being held hostage by this obsessive dieting cult — Patti: blink twice!
Also I find that this might be a subtle ad for the inner circle and whatever other programs Jordan launches on his website. He “encouraged” his listeners to check out his guide to calorie cycling, and surprise surprise when I looked it up it was almost $100!
If your idea of fitness is weighing every gram you put in your mouth, then go ahead and listen. But if you want to just be healthy and happy, then listen to Michael Pollan instead of Jordan Syatt: eat food, not too much, mostly plants. And find an activity that you enjoy and let’s you feel good about yourself.”

“Speaking to regular people about their fitness and wellness challenges is so refreshing! Most podcasts only have industry experts or social media personalities, which makes it hard to relate to. This makes me feel like I'm not alone in going through this often mentally tough journey. Great job!”Read full review »
