What actually moved the needle for your health in 2025?

If you worked hard on your health but your weight, energy, mood, or labs did not change, this episode explains why. In this episode of The Vitality Formula, Dr. Marie Livesey, physician and holistic weight loss coach, breaks down what truly created metabolic change for her patients and clients and what did not.

This conversation is especially relevant for women over 35 and busy professionals who feel stuck despite eating well, exercising regularly, and staying consistent. You will learn why effort alone is often not enough and how stress, sleep, blood sugar regulation, and recovery quietly determine results.

Rather than chasing perfection, this episode focuses on sustainable weight loss, hormone health, and realistic health strategies that work in real life.

 • The role blood sugar balance plays in cravings and energy
