This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I am joined by Megan Abernathy. I found Megan on Instagram and felt like her content was a breath of fresh air when people have concerns about body composition and the nuances around it.  We talk about periodized nutrition which includes the concept of reverse dieting and the psychological and physiological side of this and why it's so important.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • What is periodized nutrition? 
  • What is reverse dieting and who is it for?
  • Disguising food relationship issues with nutrition and fitness
  • Red flags that you have disordered eating 
  • You’ve got to earn the right to diet!
  • Metabolic and hormonal adaptations
  • Body appreciation and gratitude
