Have you ever reached a point in your health & fitness journey where you felt like giving up?

Maybe you felt overwhelmed with nutrition program options and couldn’t determine which one was right for you.

Maybe you tried six different workout programs but couldn’t tell if any of them were actually helping you achieve your body composition goals.

Maybe you got so frustrated with all of this, you wanted to quit entirely!

If you’ve felt this way, you’ll relate to our guest on today’s podcast, Rebecca Rodriguez. She’s tried weighing and tracking her food—but it left her feeling frustrated and restricted. She wondered whether this meant all hope was lost and that she’d never achieve her body composition goals.

Rebecca applied to be coached live by Adee Cazayoux, and this is a recording of their conversation. If you’ve ever felt hopeless or lost around which nutrition program is best for you (and how to stick to it), you’ll love this episode!
