The Thick Thighs Save Lives Podcast
Health & Fitness
Today we return to one of the most debated topics in health and fitness: How to lose weight and keep it off, because most who lose it, get it back within 5 years.
Want to learn some “tricks” and “secrets” to losing weight? Sorry, NONE HERE. Just science. And we aren’t focusing on carbs or willpower either…we are talking about the set point weight theory and why weight loss studies are often flawed.
Are you looking to change your body fat percentage? Want to know how some people are able to achieve long term weight loss? It isn’t as simple as this equation: eat less and move more. You CAN lose weight AND lose the shame, stigma, and frustration that comes with trying. Listen to Kelsea and Rachael talk about the set point weight theory and how genetics, hormones, metabolism and environment have a say when it comes to weight gain and weight loss. Be informed. Know the factors. Your best chance at maintaining optimum health is with knowledge in your gym bag. Know what you are working with and towards to maintain a healthy body.
