Keep The Weight Off

Today, I welcome my awesome medical assistant Marchelle who will be joining in on occasion to share her experience in the world of weight loss. We talk about her experience - her struggles with food, with dieting, and what just did not work for her, as well as the transformation once she understood the correct science.

Our bodies were designed for survival. When you “end” a diet (famine), food becomes plentiful again. When the diet is finished, the body will react by storing every possible bit of calorie as fat to protect it from the next ‘famine’, and the cycle begins again. We need to break the traditional view of dieting and update our understanding of how our bodies work.
