Steve Harvey Is Back! Strawberry Letter: Is He Sweet Or Tart?", The Adoption Prank From Tommy, & more!- 03.26.25

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Obi Obadike. A world-class fitness and nutrition expert, about the importance of building healthy habits, realistic weight loss goals, and the truth behind diet myths. Obi emphasizes portion control, consistency, and education over quick fixes. He also discusses his supplement brand, Ethical Inc., co-founded with actor Morris Chestnut, and shares practical advice for sustainable health and wellness. 🧭 Key Points 1. Motivation vs. Habit Motivation gets you started, but habit keeps you going. The hardest part is showing up—once you start, the benefits become self-reinforcing. 2. Time and Prioritization Everyone has 24 hours; health must be prioritized like hygiene. Schedule workouts like appointments—don’t try to “fit them in.” 3. Small Goals, Big Results Focus on small, incremental goals to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Use analogies like “one game at a time” or “one chapter at a time” to stay motivated. 4. Weight Loss Basics Weight loss = caloric deficit (burn more than you consume). A 500-calorie daily deficit = ~1 pound/week; 1,000 = ~2 pounds/week. 5. Simplified Nutrition If calorie counting is overwhelming, use hand-based portion control: Meals: size of two hands. Desserts: size of one palm. Meals should include protein, complex carbs, and fibrous carbs (fruits/veggies). 6. Supplements and Ethics Obi’s company, Ethical Inc., focuses on clean, science-backed supplements. He stresses that supplements are optional if you eat a balanced diet. 7. Desserts and Cheat Meals You can enjoy desserts 1–2 times per week in moderation. Portion control is key—even for treats like Krispy Kreme donuts. 8. Realistic Expectations Healthy weight loss is 1–2 pounds per week. In 3 months, 25–30 pounds is a realistic and sustainable goal. 💬 Notable Quotes “Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.” “You have 24 hours in a day. You’re telling me you don’t have 30 minutes to take care of your health?” “Forget the vanity aspect—this is going to save your life.” “You can’t overdose on broccoli.” “If you’re eating in a balanced way, you don’t need supplements.” “A dessert should not exceed the palm of your hand.” “Small, incremental goals are the key to long-term success.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST #AMISupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
