Today's episode is all about cheese and crackers! At least that's how the conversation started - and from there it grew into a raw and open discussion around the evolution of Lauren's relationship with food and eating. While the episode is about food and eating, there will be no diet talk or advice about how *you* should approach food and eating. It's simply a look into some of the phases Lauren has been through (with Jason by her side through it all) and where she's at today.Follow Us:Reasonably Fit Podcast IG: @reasonablyfitpodJason and Lauren IG: @jasonandlaurenpakTikTok: @jasonandlaurenpakLinks and Codes:Pursuit:Mobility ProgramRISE ProgramVivo Barefoot: Use code JLPAK10 for 10% off your order!Legion Athletics: Use code PAK20 for 20% off your first order and double loyalty points for subsequent orders (equivalent of 10% cash back)Free Downloads: jasonandlaurenpak.com/free-resources
