: Episode 1992 - On this Saturday show, the wonderful Leona Jaeger joins Vinnie, and the two talk her story, getting into exercise, conquering something new with Spartan Races, finding hope through NSNG®, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2021/12/finding-hope-through-nsng-episode-1992 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods LEONA'S STORY Leona found Vinnie via the Carolla effect. She has been on the show before! Sometimes she is lovingly referred to as 'Vinnie's girlfriend,' despite the fact the two haven't met in person. She has lost 50 lbs eating NSNG®. She began this way of eating in 2015. The first 30-40 went quickly, but the last 10-20 took far longer. This just goes to show: if you feel like you're stalling, be patient. FINDING HOPE THROUGH NSNG® Before this, she did some boring and blasé exercise, and even with calorie restriction, she didn't lose weight. The gym wasn't fun and she didn't feel good. Now, that's very different. This way of eating gave her more energy and made her feel like she could do more. It gave her hope. CONQUERING SOMETHING NEW Leona first heard of these in 2018. She was not really an athlete growing up. But this piqued her interest. Spartan Races come in all different shapes and sizes. The races are different lengths, have different obstacles varying in difficulty and number, and the like. Leona wanted to push herself out of her comfort zone and do something different. She did her first one in 2019! Vinnie's always loved these adventure-type events, but he does think these are kind of crazy! These certainly keep us entertained. They have little quirks, like penalties if you mess up the obstacles. In some heats, you'll have to do burpees, for example. Leona had to do 75 in her last race. Part of the race is the mental aspect. You have to get over that feeling that you might not be able to do something.
