The Calorie Deficit Trap: Why Your Diet Is Sabotaging Your Metabolism

🎧 EPISODE DESCRIPTION

Struggling with stubborn weight despite endless dieting? In this eye-opening episode, discover why chronic calorie deficits are secretly destroying your metabolism. Learn how the conventional "eat less, move more" approach fails most women and creates a destructive cycle of weight gain, hormonal chaos, and metabolic damage. Which does NOT help if you're also dealing with prediabetes.

I share my personal journey from restrictive eating to metabolic freedom, including the shocking functional lab test results that finally explained why I gained 30 pounds despite "doing everything right." This episode reveals the hidden connection between chronic dieting, disrupted hormones, and the biochemical changes that make sustainable weight loss feel impossible.

Whether you're concerned about prediabetes, trapped in yo-yo dieting, or simply tired of restricting without results, this holistic weight loss approach will transform your understanding of what your body truly needs. Discover my 5-step Metabolic Reset Framework that has helped hundreds of women rebuild their metabolism without counting a single calorie.
