Physical Therapist, Eric Finger, Sits Down With Nutrition Coach and Certified Personal Trainer, Brianna French
Questions and answers below are edited from the original interview. To see the full transcript, please scroll to the bottom of the page.
Q: Where should people begin if they want to start eating healthier?
A: Wherever you start, don’t go from zero to one hundred. People tend to want to immediately jump into the latest diet fad or influencer trend they see on Instagram, but that’s not a sustainable, healthy way of going about this. In fact, this will lead to burnout really fast. Instead, look at your goal and be honest with yourself. If you find yourself eating out at restaurants six times a week, and you want to change that, don’t immediately try to prepare all your meals at home. Instead, start with two meals at home, and continue eating out for the other four. That’s a starting point!
Q: Lots of our physical therapy patients talk about being busy and not having time to make big lifestyle changes. Do you have advice for them?
A: Starting a healthier lifestyle should be a permanent mindset. It’s not, “Oh, I’m going to do this diet until I lose weight.” Instead, people should look at it as to what changes they can make a permanent part of their lifestyle, so they need to find what works for them. They should also give themselves some grace. Let’s say they didn’t meet 100% of their healthy lifestyle goals this week, but they did meet 80% of those goals. Celebrate those! If you don’t, you’re going to get unmotivated very quickly.
Q: There are lots of fad diets out there. How do people decide which one is for them, or how do they decide to go a different route than what they see on social media?
A: Diets aren’t a bad thing, but everyone is different. From daily routines to likes and dislikes, everyone is very different. What works for one person won’t work for another. If you see a diet that you’re interested in, go ahead and try it. But, understand that it might not work for you the same way it worked for your favorite influencer. If you’re looking for a diet, it’s going to take some trial and error to find what fits your lifestyle.
Overall, though, I recommend just eating healthy. Aim for 80% of your food to be natural and not processed. Stay hydrated and DRINK WATER! So many people tell me they have so much more energy after increasing their water intake. It really does make a noticeable difference. Try to balance your meals with healthy fats, proteins, carbs, and if you like them, fruits and veggies.
Also, pay attention to your hunger cues. Do you skip meals because you’re stressed then binge once you finally eat? Are you actually hungry, or are you eating out of boredom? Pay attention to when you feel full too. You don’t have to clear your plate. You also don’t have to follow a single diet strictly. Just do what feels good for your body. Sometimes something can be deemed healthy, but you’ll find that for you, personally, it causes low energy and blood sugar crashes. So, even though that worked for someone else, that’s not going to work for you.
Q: What about late night snacking or cravings? My wife and I eat healthy, balanced meals but we oftentimes find ourselves hungry a couple of hours later.
A: If you’re eating healthy, balanced meals and getting hungry so soon after, then you’re not eating enough at the meal. You definitely need to make sure that your brain doesn’t trigger after a meal, late at night, to immediately go for something sweet, for example; watch for stress or boredom triggers. But overall, you can eat a small snack before bed. Now, a dense, large meal before bed will disrupt your sleep, but a small snack won’t hurt. Try to make it a healthy snack, though, because carbs — sugar — before bed can cause blood sugar crashes. A small piece of dark chocolate is okay, but an entire bag of cookies will do more harm than just satisfy your cravings. And, if you know every night at a certain time you’ll be craving a snack, keep something healthy intentionally just for that time of day to enjoy.

00:00:00:18 – 00:00:05:03
Hey everyone doing another interview here
with another health
00:00:05:03 – 00:00:08:05
and wellness
professional here in the Austin area.
00:00:09:05 – 00:00:12:00
Always good to bring people who I like,
know and trust
00:00:12:17 – 00:00:16:12
to my audience
and to anyone else out there interested.
00:00:16:13 – 00:00:18:20
So today we have Brianna French.
00:00:18:20 – 00:00:22:22
She is a certified personal trainer,
a nutrition coach
00:00:22:22 – 00:00:25:13
and a graduate of the University of Texas.
00:00:26:18 – 00:00:29:16
So to today, what I want to bring
00:00:29:16 – 00:00:33:10
Brianna on for
is to talk about nutrition.
00:00:33:15 – 00:00:38:00
A lot of times with my patients,
I get the question, Eric, how to
00:00:38:00 – 00:00:41:03
where do I start with you? Know,
00:00:41:03 – 00:00:43:03
losing weight or you know what?
00:00:43:03 – 00:00:45:23
I’m hitting my forties.
00:00:45:23 – 00:00:48:02
I’ve tried this diet. I’ve tried that.
00:00:48:08 – 00:00:50:00
That didn’t work.
00:00:50:00 – 00:00:51:03
Do you have any advice?
00:00:51:03 – 00:00:57:06
So instead of instead of me giving advice,
I wanted to help out my listeners
00:00:57:06 – 00:01:02:04
with a pro who I think has some really
great observations on this topic.
00:01:02:06 – 00:01:05:09
So, Brianna, let’s just get right to it.
00:01:05:09 – 00:01:08:18
You know, if folks are looking
to make some change in their
00:01:09:00 – 00:01:11:18
in their diet, in their nutrition.
00:01:11:18 – 00:01:12:24
Where do people start?
00:01:14:10 – 00:01:14:22
Yeah.
00:01:14:22 – 00:01:18:07
So my best advice is
00:01:19:10 – 00:01:22:04
first of all, don’t go zero to 100.
00:01:22:10 – 00:01:26:23
So I find all the time when people decide
that they want to start eating healthier,
00:01:27:09 – 00:01:31:08
they’re on a health kick of some sort or
even like a weight loss kick of some sort.
00:01:31:20 – 00:01:35:02
They think that they automatically need
to do
00:01:35:02 – 00:01:39:12
X, Y and Z
and follow everything that they saw
00:01:39:12 – 00:01:42:15
this one Instagrammer
do or saw in a magazine
00:01:44:06 – 00:01:46:13
or even just doing the best
00:01:46:13 – 00:01:51:16
and or the healthiest saying whatever is
deemed the best or healthiest thing.
00:01:52:01 – 00:01:55:07
But really, that’s not very sustainable
00:01:55:13 – 00:01:58:13
kind of going from that zero
to 100 approach
00:01:59:06 – 00:02:03:05
People typically will burn out
and then they fall
00:02:03:05 – 00:02:06:24
right back into their old habits,
and then you’re back at square one.
00:02:06:24 – 00:02:10:20
So what I recommend for people to do
00:02:11:06 – 00:02:13:22
is to look at what they’re doing
00:02:13:22 – 00:02:17:08
currently and be honest with themselves.
00:02:17:08 – 00:02:19:02
That’s a huge part of it as well.
00:02:19:02 – 00:02:23:16
And then pick one or two aspects
of what they’re already doing
00:02:23:16 – 00:02:28:13
and then trying to improve those
one or two aspects initially
00:02:30:17 – 00:02:31:14
So, for
00:02:31:14 – 00:02:37:10
example, if you’re going out to eat
six times a week and you hear that
00:02:37:10 – 00:02:41:04
you want to eat healthier to lose weight,
you should be
00:02:42:08 – 00:02:46:06
making most of your meals at home
or eating all of your meals at home
00:02:46:19 – 00:02:50:22
instead of going from,
you know, going and getting six meals
00:02:52:07 – 00:02:56:05
out a week to eating everything,
cooking all your meals at home.
00:02:56:18 – 00:02:59:06
There’s a high chance you’re
not going to be able to sustain that.
00:02:59:06 – 00:03:01:19
So instead, maybe make a goal. Okay.
00:03:01:19 – 00:03:06:08
From now moving forward,
I’m only going to eat four meals
00:03:07:19 – 00:03:10:02
from,
you know, picking up food from somewhere.
00:03:10:11 – 00:03:14:03
So those extra two meals you’re making
from home, so you’re making an improvement
00:03:14:15 – 00:03:18:08
instead of going all in,
if that makes sense.
00:03:18:15 – 00:03:19:16
Totally. Makes sense.
00:03:19:16 – 00:03:21:11
And I mean I mean,
00:03:21:11 – 00:03:24:14
you could even apply that to what we do
daily with our exercise and such.
00:03:24:14 – 00:03:27:08
If you’re making changes to your exercise,
you don’t need to go,
00:03:28:00 – 00:03:30:16
you know,
if you’re getting back to exercise,
00:03:30:16 – 00:03:32:09
we don’t always suggest just going
00:03:32:09 – 00:03:35:16
five days a week right in a row,
you know, taking some kind of baby steps.
00:03:35:16 – 00:03:40:22
So that I think that makes total sense
because a lot of my patients are
00:03:41:24 – 00:03:43:17
like I said, in their forties, they say
00:03:43:17 – 00:03:46:24
they’re parents, they’re professionals,
they don’t have a ton of time.
00:03:47:07 – 00:03:48:02
So I think that’s great.
00:03:48:02 – 00:03:52:06
Advice on being able to know
that you can start chipping away at this,
00:03:52:06 – 00:03:58:24
but don’t feel bad if you try to do it
every day right That’s a huge thing.
00:03:59:00 – 00:04:02:03
So two things
that I think are really big with
00:04:02:03 – 00:04:04:16
this is one, when you’re
00:04:05:18 – 00:04:08:18
thinking of making these changes
is viewing them more
00:04:08:18 – 00:04:10:19
so as like lifestyle changes.
00:04:10:19 – 00:04:14:21
Like this is going to be how you start
living your life from now on.
00:04:15:18 – 00:04:17:22
Because when we think of it
more it’s like,
00:04:17:22 – 00:04:21:01
Oh, I’m just doing this to lose weight,
00:04:21:11 – 00:04:23:21
or while I’m on this health kick.
00:04:24:17 – 00:04:26:22
People don’t end up sticking to it
very well
00:04:26:22 – 00:04:29:19
just because of how you’re viewing it.
00:04:30:06 – 00:04:32:23
And then the other thing is kind of
like what you just
00:04:32:23 – 00:04:35:17
mentioned is giving yourself some grace.
00:04:35:24 – 00:04:42:02
Don’t have the expectations that you’re
going to be 100% perfect in this.
00:04:42:09 – 00:04:42:23
A lot of us,
00:04:42:23 – 00:04:46:17
I feel like dealing with that
perfectionist mindset will come into play
00:04:47:08 – 00:04:51:05
and then so when we don’t do things
perfectly or don’t stick to
00:04:51:05 – 00:04:55:01
whatever our goal is, 100%,
we can be hard on ourselves.
00:04:55:01 – 00:04:59:20
And then that just leads to us not feeling
great and can even for a lot of people
00:04:59:20 – 00:05:03:17
that de-motivates you, you’re like, Oh,
I can’t stick to it, or I can’t do this.
00:05:04:06 – 00:05:08:10
So if you go into it
with the mindset of I’m not,
00:05:08:16 – 00:05:13:19
this is my goal,
but maybe I’m only going to be 80% at it,
00:05:13:19 – 00:05:20:18
or just the fact that you’re not going
to be 100% at it, I think can be huge. And
00:05:21:24 – 00:05:24:17
actually being able to stick to it
and feeling good about it,
00:05:24:17 – 00:05:29:00
even when you aren’t perfect at
it makes total sense.
00:05:29:00 – 00:05:30:05
Makes total sense.
00:05:30:05 – 00:05:33:10
You know, and I like the point
that you brought up too, with, you know,
00:05:33:15 – 00:05:36:17
we’re just
there’s all this noise on Instagram
00:05:36:17 – 00:05:40:19
on Facebook, everyone,
you know, pitching the next best diet.
00:05:40:19 – 00:05:44:16
And I mean, there’s
so many options out there, paleo and
00:05:45:00 – 00:05:49:01
and I mean, all the different diets
out there, you know, for the.
00:05:49:09 – 00:05:51:11
What advice do you give to folks to.
00:05:51:14 – 00:05:54:01
I mean, I know you already said, you know,
00:05:54:01 – 00:05:56:07
having a conversation with yourself
or kind of finding out
00:05:56:07 – 00:05:57:05
what you really want to do
00:05:57:05 – 00:05:59:10
and knowing where you’re coming from
and what your goals are.
00:05:59:10 – 00:06:01:16
But where should it
where else should people start
00:06:01:16 – 00:06:05:04
because there are so many options
or what advice do you give folks on that
00:06:05:04 – 00:06:07:14
to kind of find out
what’s maybe best for them?
00:06:08:07 – 00:06:08:19
Right.
00:06:08:19 – 00:06:13:06
So I’m kind of out preface with I don’t
00:06:14:11 – 00:06:15:21
disregard any diet.
00:06:15:21 – 00:06:18:02
You know, if someone wants to try it,
go for it.
00:06:18:02 – 00:06:22:01
But there’s no diet out there
that’s going to work for everyone.
00:06:22:12 – 00:06:27:10
So everyone is extremely individualized
not only in our own physiology,
00:06:27:21 – 00:06:32:12
but also in our lifestyle,
what our day to day looks like,
00:06:32:17 – 00:06:37:19
what our priorities are, how much time
we have So what works for someone?
00:06:37:22 – 00:06:40:04
One person is not going to work
for the next.
00:06:40:14 – 00:06:44:24
So a lot of it really is trial and error
when it comes down to it.
00:06:45:11 – 00:06:48:01
But I think kind of the the big blocks
00:06:48:01 – 00:06:50:16
for people to aim for ultimately
00:06:52:10 – 00:06:55:24
is one eating majority of your foods
I would say
00:06:56:09 – 00:07:00:24
at least like 80% of your food,
making that minimally processed
00:07:00:24 – 00:07:04:22
whole real food,
whatever verbiage works for you there.
00:07:06:18 – 00:07:09:18
And staying hydrated, drinking
enough water.
00:07:09:18 – 00:07:13:03
A lot of people really struggle
with that iron and that can make
00:07:13:03 – 00:07:16:11
a lot of big impact for people.
00:07:16:11 – 00:07:20:15
So even just energy levels
I notice when people start drinking
00:07:20:20 – 00:07:24:22
water consistently throughout the day
they’re like I have like way more energy.
00:07:24:22 – 00:07:27:24
I feel so much better
just staying hydrated.
00:07:28:20 – 00:07:30:02
So that’s a big one.
00:07:30:02 – 00:07:31:18
Some of the others
00:07:31:18 – 00:07:36:00
eating balanced meals I think
is another great goal to strive for.
00:07:36:00 – 00:07:39:23
And what that means is eating
a meal balanced in protein,
00:07:40:02 – 00:07:42:07
fats and carbs.
00:07:42:23 – 00:07:46:18
And then if you’re able to throw in fruits
and veggies, I mean, that’s great, too.
00:07:46:21 – 00:07:50:06
For some people, that may be a little bit
further down the road.
00:07:50:06 – 00:07:52:08
But if you’re already eating pretty well,
00:07:52:16 – 00:07:56:04
making sure you’re getting fruits
and veggies in as well
00:07:56:21 – 00:08:01:06
and paying attention to hunger cues,
that’s another huge one.
00:08:01:08 – 00:08:03:08
Paying attention.
When are you actually hungry?
00:08:03:21 – 00:08:07:20
So there’s kind of two lines
people people will fall on with this.
00:08:08:05 – 00:08:11:21
One of them being not paying attention to
when they’re hungry
00:08:12:02 – 00:08:16:13
because they’re so into their work
or they feel stressed
00:08:16:13 – 00:08:19:03
or anxious or whatever else,
and they’ll skip meals.
00:08:19:14 – 00:08:21:23
Next thing you know,
you’re absolutely ravenous.
00:08:21:23 – 00:08:25:09
And so you’re just shoving
all the food you can find down your face.
00:08:27:08 – 00:08:28:07
And then
00:08:28:07 – 00:08:31:24
on the flip side, there’s paying attention
to when you’re full
00:08:32:13 – 00:08:35:18
and actually stopping eating
when you’re full
00:08:36:03 – 00:08:40:01
rather
than completely finishing your plate or
00:08:40:04 – 00:08:43:19
keeping going back for a second or third
just because it tastes good.
00:08:44:06 – 00:08:44:18
Yeah.
00:08:44:18 – 00:08:48:11
So there’s a kind of like the big blocks
that I think are like the end goal,
00:08:48:11 – 00:08:51:17
what to strive for no matter what food
00:08:52:08 – 00:08:54:17
or type of diet.
00:08:54:17 – 00:08:57:02
If you want to aim for a type of diet.
00:08:57:09 – 00:09:01:18
And with that, like
you don’t need to follow a specific diet.
00:09:02:14 – 00:09:02:24
Yeah.
00:09:03:10 – 00:09:06:07
You don’t need to try to follow Paleo
00:09:06:07 – 00:09:09:14
or a low carb or keto.
00:09:09:22 – 00:09:11:07
No one needs to do that.
00:09:11:07 – 00:09:14:20
You can try it
and see if it feels good for you.
00:09:16:11 – 00:09:19:14
And that’s another thing to pay attention
to how your diet
00:09:19:14 – 00:09:21:23
and the food that you’re eating
is making you feel
00:09:22:15 – 00:09:26:05
if you’re eating something
and even if it’s deemed healthy,
00:09:26:05 – 00:09:29:10
but you’re not feeling great,
your energy is crashing.
00:09:30:04 – 00:09:32:07
You notice your sleep isn’t great.
00:09:32:07 – 00:09:35:03
It’s probably not the diet for you.
00:09:38:03 – 00:09:41:01
So eating, finding what
00:09:41:09 – 00:09:45:24
works for you, both in terms of health
and actually feeling good.
00:09:46:07 – 00:09:47:15
Yeah, I love that.
00:09:47:15 – 00:09:49:19
That’s great advice, great tips.
00:09:49:19 – 00:09:52:00
And I’ll definitely I’m
going to have to list those out.
00:09:52:10 – 00:09:54:24
It’s a wonderful information,
but it’s practical.
00:09:54:24 – 00:09:57:17
It’s real stuff and
00:09:58:04 – 00:10:00:00
and I can attest to a lot of those.
00:10:00:00 – 00:10:04:18
I mean, for me portions, you know,
sometimes I think I’m still in my twenties
00:10:04:18 – 00:10:08:13
and I can just, you know,
that’s not the case
00:10:08:13 – 00:10:10:24
especially as you know I’m in my forties now
00:10:11:23 – 00:10:15:15
I think one thing that just kind of go
in from in our family
00:10:15:15 – 00:10:18:23
eat relatively healthy
and sometimes my wife
00:10:18:23 – 00:10:21:24
and I all complain of just being hungry
in the evenings, you know,
00:10:22:00 – 00:10:27:06
and you know, at 9:00, eight thirty, eight 45 or so,
it’s like, oh my gosh,
00:10:27:06 – 00:10:31:11
you know, we ate a nice meal,
but I’m hungry again, you know.
00:10:31:12 – 00:10:32:18
Do you have any advice on that?
00:10:32:18 – 00:10:35:07
Instead of going running to the cabinet,
00:10:35:07 – 00:10:37:20
you know, grabbing a cookie
or something like that.
00:10:38:03 – 00:10:41:16
Any tips for or, you know,
or is that a glass of water?
00:10:41:16 – 00:10:45:19
You know, any tips
to help those cravings at 9:00?
00:10:45:19 – 00:10:49:07
Because I know that eating late
in, you can tell us more about that.
00:10:49:07 – 00:10:50:16
It’s probably not the best thing to do
00:10:52:18 – 00:10:55:11
So yeah, I actually
have a lot to say about that, though.
00:10:55:11 – 00:10:57:15
I’m hoping everything
that just ran through my mind,
00:10:57:15 – 00:11:02:08
I actually remember to say, but one I’m
00:11:03:15 – 00:11:07:05
really I don’t believe personally in
00:11:07:05 – 00:11:12:11
just based on everything that I’ve read,
I try to stay up to date on the science.
00:11:13:08 – 00:11:16:13
Eating late at night
isn’t necessarily bad.
00:11:16:24 – 00:11:18:17
There have been many studies
that have shown
00:11:18:17 – 00:11:22:07
if you’re eating a really large,
dense meal right before bed,
00:11:22:07 – 00:11:24:08
that’s
definitely going to impact your sleep
00:11:25:07 – 00:11:29:01
and eating something
that’s pretty much purely sugar.
00:11:29:05 – 00:11:32:13
Just a carbohydrate can spike blood sugar,
00:11:32:13 – 00:11:35:24
and that might not be so great,
really, just in general.
00:11:35:24 – 00:11:37:22
So especially before bed.
00:11:37:22 – 00:11:41:22
But eating late at night
isn’t inherently a bad thing.
00:11:41:23 – 00:11:45:11
But when it comes to your question,
more on the cravings.
00:11:46:12 – 00:11:48:12
One, I have a question for you.
00:11:48:12 – 00:11:53:23
is it actual hunger or is it more of
just something kind of triggers
00:11:54:00 – 00:11:57:17
your brain to be like, oh, now I kind of
just want something sweet?
00:11:57:23 – 00:12:00:24
Oh boy, yeah, exactly.
00:12:00:24 – 00:12:01:23
A mix of both.
00:12:01:23 – 00:12:05:24
But it’s funny, like both my wife and I
will find, you know, how we’re hungry.
00:12:05:24 – 00:12:09:05
You know, we’ll have salmon, for instance,
something light, you know, some
00:12:10:07 – 00:12:12:15
quinoa or something like that,
maybe a vegetable like that,
00:12:12:15 – 00:12:13:16
you know, pretty healthy.
00:12:13:16 – 00:12:18:00
But it’s like 2 hours later, we’re like,
I need something, you know what I mean?
00:12:18:14 – 00:12:18:24
Yeah.
00:12:18:24 – 00:12:23:02
So in our house, that is that is a thing
that we’re both hesitant to go
00:12:23:20 – 00:12:25:24
for the ice cream and such, so.
00:12:26:06 – 00:12:26:21
Right.
00:12:26:21 – 00:12:28:24
I get that
00:12:30:03 – 00:12:33:21
sounds to me
like you’re not eating enough for dinner.
00:12:33:21 – 00:12:38:06
And it’s not necessarily
that what you’re eating isn’t enough
00:12:38:15 – 00:12:42:15
or satisfying enough,
which could potentially be the case.
00:12:43:16 – 00:12:44:18
But with what you’re saying,
00:12:44:18 – 00:12:48:16
that sounds like a very balanced meal
and full of fiber and protein carbs.
00:12:49:06 – 00:12:54:18
But maybe you’re not eating enough,
because if you’re hungry, really
00:12:54:18 – 00:12:59:07
with any meal, if you’re hungry two,
maybe even 3 hours later,
00:12:59:20 – 00:13:03:08
what you ate
previously was not enough for you.
00:13:03:17 – 00:13:07:04
So maybe just upping the portion size,
but doesn’t mean that you need
00:13:07:04 – 00:13:09:11
to eat something different yeah.
00:13:09:11 – 00:13:12:24
Maybe eating a little bit
more of the quantity of what
00:13:12:24 – 00:13:16:15
you are eating to hold you over
until breakfast the next morning.
00:13:17:07 – 00:13:18:11
I like that. I like that.
00:13:18:11 – 00:13:21:20
That makes sense
now for a lot of people, though,
00:13:21:20 – 00:13:24:10
I know it is more of a
00:13:25:14 – 00:13:29:14
something kind of just triggers them,
even if they’re just done with their meal
00:13:30:05 – 00:13:34:15
or they’re just watching TV
and ends up being either
00:13:34:19 – 00:13:39:04
kind of stress eating or emotional
eating to an extent,
00:13:39:17 – 00:13:43:17
which in that case for people,
I would just give the advice
00:13:43:17 – 00:13:47:13
to try to bring awareness to that
and try to figure out what it is
00:13:47:13 – 00:13:50:03
that’s triggering you to go eat something
00:13:50:21 – 00:13:55:09
and you know, that’s more personal
or something that you’ll have to work on.
00:13:56:22 – 00:14:00:07
But maybe keeping something in the house,
if you know you’re going to do that,
00:14:00:07 – 00:14:02:17
that might be a little bit
better option for you.
00:14:04:19 – 00:14:07:15
And so, you know, a little piece of dark
00:14:07:15 – 00:14:10:18
chocolate,
that’s not a bad thing by any means.
00:14:11:05 – 00:14:14:16
It’s really, you know, it’s
I know a lot of people will go
00:14:14:16 – 00:14:18:14
get a bag of cookies or a bag of candy
and just start going at.
00:14:18:15 – 00:14:22:03
And so that’s where, again,
bringing mindfulness and awareness
00:14:22:03 – 00:14:25:00
to what you’re doing, why you’re doing it?
00:14:26:00 – 00:14:30:00
And then looking for a better,
not necessarily best,
00:14:30:01 – 00:14:34:13
but a better option
than what you’re already going for.
00:14:34:13 – 00:14:36:01
That that’s good stuff. Yeah.
00:14:36:01 – 00:14:37:19
I think my favorite thing about,
00:14:37:19 – 00:14:40:20
you know, the information you give me
is just it’s practical stuff.
00:14:40:20 – 00:14:45:02
I don’t have to, you know, order
anything or order any special,
00:14:45:02 – 00:14:48:08
you know, or track anything, you know,
00:14:48:21 – 00:14:52:09
growing up I remember my mom’s Weightwatchers
scale in our kitchen
00:14:52:13 – 00:14:56:03
measuring out that, you know, it’s just,
you know, keep it simple.
00:14:56:03 – 00:14:58:05
I like that part of this, so.
00:14:58:05 – 00:14:58:20
All right.
00:14:58:22 – 00:15:01:02
Great information. Really appreciate this.
00:15:01:14 – 00:15:03:21
You know,
if folks want to get a hold of you
00:15:03:21 – 00:15:07:20
and learn more
about what you’re doing and the and
00:15:08:22 – 00:15:11:07
your expertise, you know, how can folks
get a hold of you?
00:15:11:12 – 00:15:12:11
What’s the best?
00:15:12:15 – 00:15:16:16
Yes. So if anyone has an Instagram,
00:15:16:16 – 00:15:20:20
my Instagram handle is Brianna
French underscore.
00:15:22:01 – 00:15:22:21
I don’t know.
00:15:22:21 – 00:15:26:04
So it’s Brianna B, R, I, A, N, N, A
00:15:26:07 – 00:15:29:00
because there’s
so many different ways to spell it.
00:15:29:00 – 00:15:33:14
And then I also have my website,
which is briannafrenchfitness.com.
00:15:34:04 – 00:15:35:00
Perfect. Perfect.
00:15:35:00 – 00:15:35:08
Yeah.
00:15:35:08 – 00:15:40:00
People can really definitely everyone
needs to turn to turn in to her Instagram.
00:15:40:00 – 00:15:40:16
That’s
00:15:41:18 – 00:15:43:03
one reason
00:15:43:08 – 00:15:46:04
I want to do this
because I saw too many good things
00:15:46:04 – 00:15:49:11
she was putting out there and thought
what a great opportunity
00:15:49:19 – 00:15:52:19
to get this out
to some of my followers and such.
00:15:52:19 – 00:15:54:11
So yeah, appreciate it.
00:15:54:11 – 00:15:55:22
Yeah, great stuff.
00:15:55:22 – 00:15:58:07
Well, really appreciate it, Brianna. And
00:15:59:20 – 00:16:01:21
yeah, I’m looking forward to
00:16:02:20 – 00:16:06:09
instituting some of these tips you’ve
offered personally here at the house.
00:16:06:10 – 00:16:07:23
So wonderful.
00:16:07:23 – 00:16:09:02
Awesome. Awesome.
00:16:09:02 – 00:16:11:19
All right. Appreciate it. Thank you.
