Episode Summary: I recently decided to go back into a weight loss phase, and in this episode, I'm telling you exactly why. Spoiler alert: it's not because I hate my body or feel like a failure—it's because of what I learned about how excess body fat impacts your brain, your long-term health, and your everyday clarity, energy, and decision-making.
We'll talk about:
Why "feeling fine" can actually be a red flag if it keeps you stuck in complacency
What I'm changing—even though I was already eating well and exercising
How excess fat reduces brain volume, blood flow, and function (even if you feel healthy)
Why your brain is absolutely capable of healing and what it needs to do that
The real meaning of anti-inflammatory weight loss (and it's not just about food)
I'm also answering some of the biggest questions that come up around inflammation and weight, including:
Can you heal your brain if damage has already been done?
What if you know you need to lose weight but you're just not ready?
What if you're overwhelmed and don't know where to start?
How do you even know if inflammation is a problem for you?
