046: Dieting and Metabolism (+ the Right Way to Lose Weight)

Have you ever gotten on the diet rollercoaster and felt like you couldn’t get off?
Have you ever tried a diet it didn’t work, and so you tried a different one that also doesn’t work?
Or if a diet did "work," the results didn't last?

Dieting and the Metabolism

For those of you who have been dieters for years or decades, it’s exhausting, right? Join us in this episode of Healthy Free Life as Chris and I talk about what’s happening to your body physically, mentally, and hormonally when you diet. We also break down why it’s not healthy or sustainable to eat less and exercise more (or eat more, exercise less, for that matter).

We discuss:

• the damaging effects of dieting
• how it affects the metabolism
• the three metabolic states that can help you healthily and sustainably gain, lose, or maintain your weight.

Then, Chris explores the potential usages and benefits of the weight maintenance phase… and they might surprise you!
