EP. 174 Top Fuel Sources

·1 hr 2 min·4 clips

Sean says most people regain weight after fad diets and often gain more back.

Jon introduces the episode around fuel and a fresh start for 2026. Sean joins him behind the mahogany desk and keeps the conversation moving. A recent road trip to Oxnard, California, gives the opening stretch a personal, easy tone. The story is loose, but it leads straight into the main subject. That subject is what they are eating to get going this year. They frame it as a Q1 focus. Breakfast gets the most attention. Sean says he now eats breakfast at home before work. That is a shift from his earlier habit of grabbing easy food at the cafeteria. Those old choices were usually a bagel or a burrito, and they did not last long. He says he used to be hungry again by 10:30. The new routine is simpler. Eggs are a big part of it. He also mentions steak, bacon, and pre-cooked chicken meatballs from Costco. The chicken meatballs go straight into the air fryer. He adds bacon and eggs with corn tortillas from a fresh Mexican store. The thread running through all of it is easy-prep protein. That keeps him full through the morning and gets him to lunch without the same midmorning crash.
