Busy Mom Trying to Get Healthy

Katie writes:

Hey Robb and Nicki - I am a full-time working mom of two busy kids. I am overweight and make way too many unhealthy food choices. I am trying to get better. I’ve listened to dozens and dozens of your podcast so I know what I need to be doing. Let’s just say I am a junk food addict and breaking all my bad habits is taking me longer than I like. I am trying to put a focus on healthier decisions. In the context of juggling the complexities of a busy life and being a person who still eats too much processed food, I have a couple questions:

1 - I have been drinking a chocolate LMNT with collagen every morning. Knowing I don’t have a great diet, is there a point that I shouldn’t be having that much sodium?

2 - In an effort to get up my protein intake while still keeping my calories low, I started drinking a protein shake every morning. Is that god awful to do? I know they’re better options. A Whole Foods breakfast would be ideal. But with the limited time in the morning, this has seemed to be a pretty good compromise for me at this point in my life. Then I heard someone say you shouldn’t drink your protein. So I wanted to get your opinion. I know this isn’t the best option, but is it an okay option?

3 - Assuming a protein shake isn’t god awful. Do you have a brand that you recommend?

Thanks for all you do. I enjoy hearing all of your opinions on all the things (especially the politically stuff). Keep fighting the good fight!!

Thanks, Katie
