Episode Description
Chapter 4: When It's Working (Even When It's Not Perfect)
Joanna shows up with the best possible news: she feels good. More energy. The afternoon slump that used to start at two and drag on for hours? Now it's maybe fifteen minutes around four—if it happens at all. Fewer carbs, more protein. It's working.
The food logging, though? That fell off a bit. The notebook ended up on the other side of the house, and there's still birthday cake in the freezer calling her name. Life happens.
So they simplify: sticky notes, or a stoplight system—green, orange, red—to mark how the day went. No perfection required.
The next experiment? Intermittent fasting, a few times a week. And one critical rule: never break a fast with carbs. Start with protein. Always.
This is session four of Joanna's health journey.
