Body Type Metabolic Type - You've heard the diet hype . . .
You really can't go anywhere without seeing and hearing ads for the latest greatest diet. Celebrities, influencers, your friend, that guy on Insta with a six pack - we are inundated with diet marketing. And the truth is - it works! The diet industry is a $70 BILLION industry so clearly we're buying what they're selling. Which is why from time to time I like to do an episode like this to help you be a more discerning customer out there in the wild wild west of the diet world.
In this episode we're talking about the "body type" diet or the "metabolic type" diet. They go by many names and are promoted by different celebrities, but the gist is that in order to lose weight you should be eating or exercising according to your specific body or metabolic type. It generally involves some sort of quiz to tell you your specific type and "personalizes" a meal plan just for you! (I hope you read that in your sarcastic voice 😉)
If you've listened to this podcast for longer than 5 seconds you know I have some pretty strong feelings about diets in general, and this one is no different. Body type and metabolic type diets are tricky because it sounds logical. I mean you can look around you and see that yes, indeed it DOES seem like people fit into some general body type categories, you've probably even categorized yourself before. So if I can see that there seems to be types, it's not much of a mental leap to buy into the idea that perhaps those types should be on different diets. Then they hit you with some fancy sounding pseudo science and it's game over, we're in, take my money! And so begins our next failed diet.
In this episode I'm going to give you the REAL science - both in support and against a body type and metabolic type diet. Who it might be for, who it's not for, and how much it REALLY matters to achieving your goals - and you, armed with real information, can decide for yourself.

Ditch the Diets and Finally Make Peace with Food
If you struggle with yo-yo dieting then you know how hard it is to make any real lasting change. Unfortunately most women get stuck in the belief that being on a diet is the only way to lose weight and get healthy, and when they inevitably fail they’ve destroyed their self esteem, destroyed their relationship with food, and get stuck in a guilt/shame spiral that starts the whole process over again.
If you don’t understand how reprogram your mind that is sabotaging you, and reprogram your body for health, you’ll never make lasting progress.
That’s why I created the Healthy Mind, Healthy Body Program; to teach you how to make a real, lasting transformation in your Mind AND Body.
