Ep 9 - Haters Gonna Hate

Pete and Gretchen recorded on time and the wine is back!

Then Pete goes on a rant after receiving some feedback on a blog post he wrote called “A Fat Tub of Goo.” Is his rant justified? You be the judge.

Gretchen patiently listens and gives her two cents about the whole situation. They both acknowledge they are putting themselves out there and criticism is part of the territory. Is the note Pete received over the top or just part of what they should expect? Again, you be the judge.

After the rant is over, the couple launches into the FMC Rewind. Gretchen was traveling and tells you about what she did and how she stayed NSNG. There is a discussion over how to order a burger with no bun while on the road. There’s really only one right answer yet they each do it differently. And Gretchen’s family greeted them with a batch of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, and there is a dessert bar involved on the trip. Torture!

Gretchen counts walking around the Omaha zoo as exercise. Hills, pushing a stroller, and chasing a two-year-old – yeah, that’s exercise.

Pete talks about his recovery and continued struggles after surgery a couple of weeks ago. His weight loss continues despite the struggles and the “cheats.”

They wrap up the show talking about the concept of Intermittent Fasting. Why do they do it? Does it work? Is there science behind it? Bottom line, yes it works for them and the science is proving it out.
