“Will I gain weight on a reverse diet?” This is the #1 question I receive from nutrition clients as well as prospective clients and followers on Instagram. And it's a valid concern because diet culture continuously tells us to "eat less, exercise more." But if you're not getting the results you want, it's time to try something new.

In this episode, you'll learn how reverse dieting results in different effects for different people. ⁠It often depends on your specific goals, the rate of the reverse, your dieting history, current physical situation (like body weight, hormonal health, and other related stats), your mindset, and your patience.

Remember: The goal of a reverse diet is not to lose weight. Instead, the goal is to increase calories, repair the metabolism, build muscle, and set you up for success when you decide to cut.

Reverse dieting is a great option for all kinds of people. From competitive fitness athletes to everyday women with a goal, reverse dieting is beneficial for body, mind, and soul. If you’ve been in a caloric deficit for a while, are starting to feel frustrated with the restriction, or are seeing a plateau in your results, a reverse diet might be the thing you need to shake things up!

In this episode, I share my typical morning routine, Monday through Friday, which, ok, might not be the most *aspirational*, but it's real and true and probably what you'd expect from a Basic B! ;)

If you struggle with consistency, maybe your definition of consistency looks too much like perfection.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

That’s it.⁠⁠

But really, look at what your ‘consistency’ looks like.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

Is it exercising for exactly 60 minutes a day, 5 times a week, rain, shine, and everything in between?⁠⁠

⁠⁠

Or is it simply moving your body on a regular basis? And being okay with 20 minutes when you can't get in your normal workout? ⁠⁠

⁠⁠

Is it hitting 1500 calories each and every day, never more, no matter what?⁠⁠

⁠⁠

Or is it monitoring your portions, eating healthy foods most of the time, and listening to your body?⁠⁠

⁠⁠

You see, consistency only works when it’s something you can actually do for the long-term. If you’re giving up as soon as you make one ‘bad’ decision because you’re no longer ‘perfect’, we have a problem.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

Putting harsh restrictions on yourself, especially ones that keep you from friends and family or make you feel lousy all the time then kicking yourself when you ‘slip-up’, is not the kind of consistency that gets you results.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

All that gets you is frustrated, lonely, miserable, or even worse, injured.⁠⁠

Tune it for tips to shift your mindset and ways to look at things differently to help you get consistent and progress toward your goals!

One of the most common questions that I get from nutrition clients is “how do I get more protein into my diet?” Consuming enough protein is so important – it keeps you satisfied, your blood sugar more steady, cravings at bay, and helps you better recover from your workouts. Clients are often looking for tips on how to include more protein in their meals and snacks, so I discuss exactly what I do and share my formula for hitting my protein each and everyday.

For YOU, I created a special resource to help you easily plan your protein intake in order to hit your goal. This free resource includes a protein-focused grocery planner, macro cheat sheet, protein recommendations, meal targets, and more!

Camille Martin is a registered dietitian, health blogger, and senior technical editor for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. She is also a former chronic dieter who wasted nearly 25 years of her life on a diet. When she finally quit dieting and started setting and achieving more meaningful goals, she lost weight without trying. She also made powerful connections between women’s obsession to lose weight and the cultural conditioning that keeps them locked in a prison of silence, shame, and limitation. In her book, Love To Lose: Love Your Life and Watch the Weight Lose Itself, she uses what she learned on her own weight-loss journey to help other women stop wasting their lives on a diet, embrace everything about themselves, achieve what they’re truly capable of -- and lose weight in the process. She received a Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Georgia and a Bachelor of Science in nutrition from Georgia State University. She is a vegetarian, marathon runner, and avid reader who loves to travel. She lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, with her two daughters and their rescue dogs.
