If you’ve been eating less, training more, and still not seeing fat loss… your metabolism isn’t broken—but it is trying to protect you.

In this episode, I’m diving deep into the real science behind “starvation mode,” metabolic adaptation, and how years of under-eating and overtraining can leave your body stuck. We’ll talk about what’s actually going on when your fat loss stalls, the truth about metabolic damage, and how reverse dieting can help you rebuild your metabolism and get your body working with you again.

Inside this episode:

1. What metabolic adaptation is (and why it’s not your fault)
2. The signs you’re stuck in survival mode
3. How to reverse diet step by step
4. What to expect when increasing your calories
5. How to heal your body without gaining unnecessary fat

If you’ve ever felt like you're doing everything right and still not getting anywhere, this episode is for you. You’re not broken—and this is your roadmap to freedom.
