103. How to Lose Weight & Keep It Off in 2026: GLP-1s, Seed Oils & SkinnyTok Lies with Abbey Sharp
Description
Ever followed a million nutrition accounts, tried every “quick fix” in January, and still felt totally overwhelmed (and honestly…kinda hungry)? Girl, SAME.
If you are tired of falling for detoxes, cleanses, fat-burning “miracles,” or just want real advice that actually fits into your busy, chaotic mom-life, today’s episode is your new BFF. I brought on media dietitian and wellness myth-buster Abbey Sharp to spill the tea (literally) on how to actually lose weight mindfully AND keep it off without driving yourself absolutely nuts.
We get into all the things you’re Googling:
Why protein, fiber, and healthy fats need to be your plate-building besties
How to make healthy eating actually doable (even with kids, work, NO time, and yes, rotisserie chicken from Costco!)
The truth about SkinnyTok and all those wellness cult tips that make you feel like crap
What’s REALLY up with GLP-1 meds like Ozempic and the semaglutide craze—should you take it, when does it help, when does it get weird??
Plus, Abbey shares her honest story…going from the “perfect” PhD track to totally switching careers and crushing the media game. Because life isn’t about looking perfect; it’s about finding your WHY and creating real, sustainable change.
If you’ve ever wanted someone to break down nutrition for your REAL LIFE, help you shut down that diet noise, and remind you there’s no one “right” way—we’re here to help you find it!
xoxo,
Jackie
