Welcome to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, Ben Brown, Owner of BSL Nutrition a one on one virtual nutrition and fitness company that helps you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy through our pure science, proven results process.Today, instead of our regular podcast episode, I'm excited to share an interview I did recently on The Dad Edge Podcast. During this conversation, we talk about why it's so important to invest in our health and why men need to give themselves permission to prioritize themselves in order to show up in a bigger and better way for their family, business, community, and future. We also talk about why we need to take an individualized approach to exercise and nutrition and figure out the various strategies, techniques, routines, and protocols that work best for us, as well as the importance of setting a powerful example for our children.I had such a great time being on this show and I hope that you find as much value in our conversation as I did.

Welcome to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, Ben Brown, the owner of BSL Nutrition where we help you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy because we believe your health determines your freedom. And in today's podcast, I'm sharing an interview that I did a few years ago with my buddy and BSL Nutrition client Gabe Daley. Gabe joined our Smart Nutrition Coaching Program in 2020. He was overweight, out of shape, and battling poorly controlled type-2 diabetes. He lacked the foundational principles of good nutrition and realized that if he continued on this path, he wouldn't be able to show up the way he wanted for his family.Gabe had been working with us for just six months at the time of this interview and his results were nothing short of amazing. He dropped more than 20 lbs, lost 4 inches in his waist, went down two shirt sizes, and even had to buy smaller underwear. But the real icing on the cake was that by overhauling his nutrition and training he was able to get his blood sugar in check and stop taking two out of three of his diabetes medications.This is a story about resilience, discipline, willpower, and the incredible achievements you can make when you choose to invest in yourself, your family, and your future.As always, if you love what you hear on this show, then do me a favor and subscribe, leave a positive rating and review, and share this episode with a friend or loved one whom you think could benefit.

In today's Smart Nutrition Made Simple podcast, I thought it would be helpful to get our BSL Nutrition coaching team together to talk about boundary setting, particularly as it pertains to setting ourselves up for success during summer festivities and summer travel where we inevitably have less structure and more temptation and pressure to indulge in food and alcohol which can sabotage our weight loss efforts.As always, if you love what you hear on this show, then do me a favor and subscribe, leave a positive rating and review, and share this episode with a friend or loved one whom you think could benefit.

I am always down for a challenge. And I always believe in walking the talk. And so I decided that for my 44th birthday, I want to make a concerted effort to get as lean as I possibly can. So what I want to do in this short episode is just walk you through what that process looks like for me. The things that I'm doing day in and day out. And really relate this to losing fat over 40 and how things change as we get older. And then I want to share some lessons that I've learned during this fat loss process that I think will be directly applicable to you.As always, if you love what you hear on this show, then do me a favor and subscribe, leave a positive rating and review, and share this episode with a friend or loved one whom you think could benefit.
