Eat Wisely

It helps to know the macros and micros when planning your daily nutrition. Macros are macronutrients, the three main sources in all foods. Proteins, fats and carbohydrates are macronutrients. Micronutrients include vitamins, minerals and water content.

Weight Loss vs. Fat Loss

When you watch a weight loss competition show, you witness contestants dropping several pounds per episode. However, you don’t know what they’re actually losing to drop the weight.

The body has lean mass, consisting of muscle tissue, bone, organs and water weight. It also has fat storage. Weight loss should target losing body fat. The lean mass drives metabolism, so you don’t want to lose muscle mass.

Your metabolism adapts to your eating capacity. It’s best to gradually reduce your food intake if you want to lose weight. It’s also important to stick to a maintenance diet of specific consumption instead of returning to pre-diet eating habits.

Listen as Dr. Tiffany Breeding joins Dr. Holly Lucille to share how metabolism works and how to get the most bang for your weight loss buck.
