Episode 77: Breaking Free from the Clean Plate Club: Embrace Your Hunger Cues

Hello, friends! If you're in your 50s and navigating perimenopause or post menopause, you probably remember the clean plate club. Growing up, many of us were taught to finish everything on our plates, regardless of hunger. This mindset has lingered into adulthood, making it challenging to recognize and respond to our natural hunger cues.In today's episode of "Lean and Clean with Fitness Chef Christine," we'll dive into breaking these old habits. Learn how to listen to your body, stop eating when you're full, and reframe your relationship with food. I'll also share my tips for staying hydrated and making healthy, delicious meals like my favorite Green Goddess Chicken Salad. Join me and my grandson, Ronan, in the kitchen for some fun and practical cooking tips that promote a healthier lifestyle.
