The Complete Wellbeing Journey

Lesson 14: The Best Vegetable Is The One You’ll Actually Eat!

For years we’ve been taught to ask:

“What’s the healthiest vegetable?”

But I think we’ve been asking the wrong question.

A better question is:

“Which vegetables will I actually enjoy eating consistently?”

The healthiest eating pattern isn’t built on finding the “perfect” food.

It’s built on repeatable behaviours.

Research consistently shows that habits are far more likely to stick when they’re enjoyable, realistic and easy to repeat. That’s where lasting behaviour change happens.

So if you love broccoli, brilliant.

If carrots, capsicum, cucumber or green beans are more your thing…

That’s brilliant too.

The fibre, vitamins, minerals and plant compounds in vegetables all contribute to better health—but only if they actually make it onto your plate.

Healthy eating was never meant to feel like a punishment.

There are no gold medals for forcing yourself to eat vegetables you hate.

And if the only way you’ll eat broccoli is swimming in two litres of cheese sauce… we might have a few more coaching conversations to have!

“CK’s Take Home Message!”

Don’t chase perfect nutrition.

Build enjoyable habits.

Choose vegetables you genuinely like. Eat them often.

Because sustainable nutrition will always beat perfect nutrition that only lasts until next Monday.

BEHAVIOUR CHANGE COACHING — PART 3

Make The New Pathway Easier To Walk

We often tell ourselves:

“Try harder.”
“Be more disciplined.”
“Stay motivated.”

But a better question is:

“How can I make the behaviour I want easier to repeat?”

Want to train consistently?

Lay your gear out the night before.

Want to eat better?

Make nutritious choices the easiest option.

Want to walk more?

Attach it to something you already do.

Want better sleep?

Create a simple, repeatable wind-down routine.

And when things don’t go to plan:

Don’t tell yourself:

“I’ve failed.”

Instead ask:

“What can I learn from this?”

This is where expert coaching can make all the difference.

A great coach helps you turn setbacks into feedback, adjust the plan, build confidence and keep moving forward.

Because lasting change isn’t built through perfection.

It’s built through:

Awareness → Choice → Repetition → Adjustment → Repeat

Over time, those small behaviours become the building blocks of your success.

The goal of great coaching isn’t to make you dependent:

It’s to help you develop the skills, confidence and habits to eventually coach yourself.

Change the practice. Change the pattern. Build the person.

WHY FRUIT CAN HELP FAT LOSS

“The foods people fear most are sometimes the foods that can make fat loss easier.”

Fruit contains natural sugars — but that’s only one part of the package.

Whole fruit also brings:

Fibre — helps support fullness and healthy digestion
Water/hydration — contributes volume without lots of energy
Nutrients — vitamins, minerals and protective plant compounds
Satisfaction — something sweet that can actually feel like food

And here’s where it matters for fat loss:

The more satisfied you feel, the easier it can be to stick with an appropriate calorie intake consistently.

Fruit doesn’t magically burn fat.

It doesn’t override calories.

But replacing more energy-dense, highly processed foods with whole fruit can make a calorie deficit more enjoyable, nutritious and sustainable.

“QUICK CK MEAL MAGIC”!

Greek yoghurt + berries + banana + a sprinkle of nuts/seeds.

Add a little cinnamon if you like.

You’ve got:

🥛 Protein
🍓 Fibre & fruit
🥜 Healthy fats
💧 Plenty of volume
🔥Fermented food magic
😋 Sweetness without needing a dessert

Fast. Nutritious. Delicious.

And importantly;

No banning fruit required.

“CK’S TAKEAWAY”!

Fruit doesn’t sabotage fat loss.

For many people, it can actually make healthy eating easier to stick with.

Don’t fear the fruit.

Build the better plate.

BEHAVIOUR CHANGE COACHING — PART 1

“Your Brain Is Practising Something”!

Ever wondered why you can genuinely WANT to change;
but keep ending up in the same place?

Same trigger!
Same thought!!
Same emotion!!!
Same behaviour!!!!

This isn’t necessarily a lack of willpower.

When we repeatedly respond to familiar situations in the same way, those behaviours can become increasingly automatic.

Think:

TRIGGER → RESPONSE → REWARD

But here’s the exciting part:

Your brain can adapt.

Neuroplasticity means the brain can change in response to learning and experience.

So instead of asking:

❌ “Why am I like this?”

Try:

✅ “What have I been practising?”

And this is where expert coaching can be powerful.

A great coach helps you identify the pattern, understand what drives it, create realistic alternatives and — most importantly — practise the new response.

Because lasting change isn’t about motivation for a few weeks.

It’s about turning better choices into repeated behaviours!

And importantly: repeated behaviours into the building blocks of your success.

Your brain isn’t broken.

It’s been learning.

And you can learn differently.

I will be back tomorrow with the “how”!

THE STUDY EVERYONE MISUNDERSTOOD

“The famous study that ‘proved fruit makes you fat’… didn’t even use fruit.”

Yep. Read that again!

The participants weren’t eating apples, bananas or berries.

They were given a large dose of fructose in liquid form — around 64g of fructose in a single sitting.

That matters.

Because whole fruit ≠ isolated fructose drink.

Whole fruit comes packaged with:

Fibre
Water
Vitamins & minerals
Antioxidants
Greater satiety and more!

And yes, large amounts of fructose can increase de novo lipogenesis ; the process of making fat from other nutrients.

But the dose, delivery, overall diet and energy balance matter enormously.

The problem wasn’t that the study was useless.

The problem was what happened AFTER the study.

One finding became a headline!

The headline became a nutrition myth!!

And suddenly:

“Fructose can contribute to fat production”

became;

“Fruit makes you fat.”

That’s not what the study showed.

“CK’S TAKEAWAY”!

Don’t just read the headline.

Ask:

What did they actually feed people?
How much?
For how long?
And does it resemble real life?

Because context isn’t a footnote in nutrition science.

Don’t fear the fruit.

Understand the evidence.

Good Habits Are Addictive Too!

We often joke about bad habits being addictive!

But here’s the good news:

Good habits can become remarkably automatic too!

And no, you don’t need to wake up tomorrow at 5am, drink green juice, meditate for 40 minutes and suddenly become a completely different human.

Behaviour change doesn’t work that way.

Our brains love familiar patterns.

So instead of trying to change everything at once, start small.

Have you heard of Habit stacking?

It’s simply taking something you already do and attaching a new behaviour to it! Yep like 2 got 1!

Have your morning coffee?
→ Drink a glass of water first.

Brush your teeth?
→ Do 10 squats afterwards.

Get home from work?
→ Put your walking shoes on before you sit down.

Finish dinner?
→ Take a 10-minute walk.

Small behaviour!

Existing cue!!

Repeat!!!

Stack enough small wins together and something powerful happens.

The behaviour becomes easier.

Then more automatic.

Then, dare I say it;

You might actually start craving the behaviour you once couldn’t be bothered doing!

That’s the beauty of behaviour change.

You don’t need perfect.

You need repeatable.

And you don’t need to overhaul your entire life.

You just need to find the next small behaviour that fits into the life you’re already living.

“CK’s Corner”!

Don’t underestimate the power of boring.

Because boring, repeated consistently, becomes habit.

And habits repeated over time become results.

Yep, you have heard this from me many times before; “get brilliant at the basics”!

Start small.
Stack wisely.
Repeat relentlessly.

All or something.

Never all or nothing.

“CK’s Reflection Question”?

What good habit could you stack onto something you already do every day?

Because sometimes the biggest change doesn’t require more effort; it just requires a better cue!

THE FRUCTOSE MYTH

“Yes… fructose CAN become fat.

But that’s only HALF the story.”

Fructose gets a pretty bad rap.

And there’s a reason for some of the confusion.

Fructose is processed primarily by the liver, and when large amounts are consumed—particularly in liquid, energy-dense forms—it can contribute to fat production.

But here’s the bit that often gets missed!

DOSE MATTERS!!

Your body doesn’t respond to a little fructose from whole fruit in the same way it responds to large amounts of rapidly consumed added sugar.

An apple comes with fibre, water, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

A sugary drink can deliver a large dose of sugar and energy very quickly—with little nutritional value.

So yes physiologically:

Fructose CAN become fat.

But that doesn’t mean:

FRUCTOSE = FAT.

That’s like saying:

“Water can be dangerous, therefore water is dangerous.”

The amount, the food it’s coming from, your overall diet and your total energy intake all matter.

CONTEXT MATTERS!!

Don’t fear the fruit.

Understand the food.

“CK’s Takeaway”!

It’s rarely one nutrient that determines your outcome.

It’s the whole picture.

Evidence over emotion.
Education over restriction.
Sustainable over extreme.

No - Fruit Isn’t The Same As Added Sugar!

“Your body doesn’t see an apple the same way it sees a soft drink.”

For years, fruit has been caught in the crossfire of the “sugar is sugar” debate.

But context matters.

Whole fruit and sugary drinks may both contain sugar:

They’re not nutritionally equivalent.

Whole fruit comes packaged with:

✅ Fibre

💧 Water

🍊 Vitamins

🥝 Minerals

🫐 Antioxidants

This natural package slows digestion, increases fullness and delivers nutrients your body actually needs.

A soft drink?

It delivers large amounts of added sugar and energy, but very little nutritional value.

The science is clear!

Don’t judge a food by one ingredient.

Judge it by the entire package.

Nature packaged fruit brilliantly.

Food companies didn’t.

“CK’s Takeaway”!

🍎 Eat more whole foods.

🥤 Drink fewer sugary drinks.

Simple habits. Sustainable results.

Does Fruit Really Make You Fat?

It’s one of the biggest nutrition myths that just won’t disappear. And I deal with this often!

Here’s the truth:

Fruit contains natural sugars, including fructose.

But eating an apple isn’t the same as drinking a bottle of soft drink.

Whole fruit comes packaged with:
🍎 Fibre
💧 Water
💪 Vitamins & minerals
🛡️ Powerful antioxidants

These nutrients help keep you fuller for longer, making it easier to stay in a calorie deficit if fat loss is your goal.

The science is clear:

✅ Fruit does not prevent fat loss.

What matters most is your overall energy balance.

If you’re consistently eating fewer calories than your body uses, fruit can absolutely be part of a successful fat loss journey.

Don’t fear fruit.

Fear nutrition myths that distract you from the habits that truly matter.

“CK’s Complete Wellbeing”!

Nutrition can be complicated, however, healthy sustainable habits definitely don’t have to be!

Lesson 14:

The Best Vegetable Is The One You’ll Actually Eat!

For years we’ve been taught to ask:

“What’s the healthiest vegetable?”

But I think we’ve been asking the wrong question.

A better question is:

The healthiest eating pattern isn’t built on finding the “perfect” food.

It’s built on repeatable behaviours.

Research consistently shows that habits are far more likely to stick when they’re enjoyable, realistic and easy to repeat. That’s where lasting behaviour change happens.

So if you love broccoli, brilliant. Yep, absolutely my favourite!

If carrots, capsicum, cucumber or green beans are more your thing!

That’s brilliant too.

The fibre, vitamins, minerals and plant compounds in vegetables all contribute to better health—but only if they actually make it onto your plate.

Healthy eating was never meant to feel like a punishment.

There are no gold medals for forcing yourself to eat vegetables you hate.

And if the only way you’ll eat broccoli is swimming in two litres of cheese sauce… we might have a few more coaching conversations to have! @

“CK’s Take Home Message”

Don’t chase perfect nutrition.

Build enjoyable habits.

Choose vegetables you genuinely like. Eat them often.

Because sustainable nutrition will always beat perfect nutrition that only lasts until next Monday.
