Episode 2722:

Overindulging in food can lead to guilt and the urge to punish yourself with tough workouts, but Nia Shanks emphasizes that this approach only reinforces negative emotions and habits. Instead, she encourages focusing on positive, empowering actions - like enjoying your favorite foods without guilt, staying active for the love of it, and moving on from the indulgence without shame.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://niashanks.com/damage-control-when-you-over-indulge/

Quotes to ponder:

"Activity and working out should never be done as a form of punishment."

"There are no good and bad foods."

"Choose to move on and focus exclusively on positive actions you can take."
