In this episode, I’m unpacking a mindset that many people don’t even realize is holding them back from lasting weight loss: the habit of eating to avoid wasting food.

We all hate wasting food, right? But when your solution to food waste is to eat everything, even when you’re not hungry, you’re creating a new problem — wasted energy. That excess energy turns into body fat, and before you know it, you’re carrying around 20, 30, or even 50 pounds of extra weight.

Here’s what we cover:

• Why the ‘value for money’ mindset around food can actually lead to weight gain
• How using your body as a “food bin” creates wasted calories and sabotages your progress
• The three types of waste you might be creating: wasted energy, wasted money, and wasted time
• How calorie balance really works throughout the day — and why constant overeating stacks up
• Practical tips for planning better, shopping smarter, and finally breaking free from this cycle
• Why it’s okay (and necessary) to let some food go to waste — your body will thank you for it

If you’ve ever found yourself finishing your plate or eating leftovers just because you “don’t want to waste it,” this episode is for you. It’s time to rethink how you relate to food waste and take back control of your health.
