For this one, I just pressed record and talked about of my experience running 250km self-sufficient through the Sahara Desert the week before last. I go briefly into everything I did with my training, food and mindset before the event and then all the ridiculous and life- changing moments during and after my time in the Sahara. This episode goes through the highs and the lows. I've talked everything from avoiding snakes and scorpions on the long day (86 km), seeing people hooked up to IV's and puking blood to cutting away the steel poles holding our tent to try and survive a sandstorm (side note: I'll never take having a roof and four walls for granted ever again!). I hope you enjoy this one. This episode is dedicated to my MDS tent mates Simon, Johnny, Paddy, Hugh, Fergal and Pete who all played a huge role in helping me get to the finish line.

Orla qualified as a Dietitian from Kings College London. She initially obtained an honours degree in Physiology from Trinity College, allowing her to apply her detailed knowledge of the human body to the nutritional management of conditions and diseases. Since then Orla upgraded her BA in Physiology to an MA in Physiology and went on to achieve a Masters in Clinical Nutrition at Roehampton University, London.

She is one of my 'go to' people when it comes to the latest research on topics and I love her ability to argues the pros and cons for nearly any dietary approach. If you struggle with weight or fat loss, are confused about metabolism and how to actually boost it or most importantly, you suffer from PCOS then this is a must listen.

The first half of today's episode is about weight loss and nutritional or dietary misconceptions and the second half of this podcast is a PCOS deep dive

Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show.

· Genetics and hunger

· Optimal protein vs adequate program with a weight loss goal

· Losing muscle as we age (and how to avoid it) and why it slows down fat burning

· The biggest weight loss struggles she sees

· PCOS deep dive – whose at risk, the solutions and what the research is telling us.

· And more.
