"Stopping is hard and reducing is hard. So I've gone from... I've been eating a lot of shit."
David Boyle, the comedian behind 'I'm Quitting Alcohol', is on a mission to sort out his rig and, in this episode, he shares the ups and downs of his dietary journey. After years of indulging in junk food, Boyle finds himself at a crossroads, grappling with the challenge of reducing his food intake. He candidly admits that cutting back isn't as simple as swapping burgers for salads – it's a gradual process akin to tapering off a substance.
Boyle's humorous take on his struggles with food cravings and his transition to healthier eating habits adds a relatable twist to the episode. Boyle describes his attempts to embrace a new diet filled with quinoa salads and smoked fish, only to find himself ravenous by mid-afternoon. His recount of swinging by Guzman and Gomez for a burrito fix highlights the difficulty of breaking old habits.
Despite the challenges, Boyle is committed to staying strong over the weekend, especially with his mum visiting, which he anticipates might be a 'nightmare'. His reflections on feeling lighter and less tired after four days of dietary change provide hope for those battling similar issues. You'll find Boyle's comedic storytelling both entertaining and insightful, as he navigates the complexities of food addiction and the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle.
His honest recounting of personal battles makes for an engaging listen, especially for anyone seeking humour in the face of adversity. Tune in for a dose of laughter and wisdom from a man who's been there and done that – and is still figuring it out.
