When we talk about weight loss, ideally what we are meaning is fat loss, not muscle loss. But the reality is that with all weight loss, there is a degree of muscle loss – somewhere in the range of 25-40%. I believe that instead of talking about weight loss, we should be discussing body composition – because improving body composition (decreasing fat mass, improving muscle mass) is truly what leads to improved fitness, cardiometabolic health and longevity.
Today’s episode covers all of this and more – with specific recommendations for what you can do to lose fat and maintain muscle with weight loss. I cover:

Forget about juice cleanses and colonics, the BEST type of detox is a social media detox!
This week I’m turning 40. Yup, the big 4-0.
And as I’m reflecting on what I want my future to look like, it has me thinking about social media, the online world, and how I don’t want to be sucked into that anymore. I don’t want my kids falling into the addictive trap of social media when they get a little older – so I need to lead by example.
On today’s episode of the High on Life podcast, I share lessons I’ve learned from leaving social media, removing all social platforms from my phone, and the freedom on the other side.

What new medications are coming down the pipeline in Obesity Medicine? I explore the latest and greatest in obesity pharmacotherapy with my guest today, Dr. Sean Wharton.
Dr. Wharton is one of the leading Canadian researchers in Obesity Medicine. He is co-lead author of the Canadian Obesity Guidelines and the primary author of many of the clinical trials in bariatric medicine and type 2 diabetes. We discussed what is being studied in Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials in obesity management including:
**A small error that Dr. Wharton wanted to correct. The Amgen molecule discussed today is a GIPR antagonist, not a glucagon antagonist.
