Episode 84: Weight Loss Saboteurs
Are you struggling with weight loss, wondering if you've stalled out?
Or are you gaining weight, but you're not sure why?
Sometimes there are these little things that we do regularly that slip under the radar, that we don't realize are sabotaging our weight loss efforts …. and in some instances, actually CAUSING weight gain!
In today's podcast, Marchelle and I talk about some common (and surprising!) weight loss saboteurs …. So you can ask yourself, could one or more of these things be at the root of my struggles?
Episode Highlights:
(03:01) Weight loss and fat loss are not the same thing. If you get on the scale and you don't see any change, that does not mean that you are not losing fat.
(07:18) When you produce excessive amounts of insulin, you can't lose weight, and you're probably actually going to gain weight.
(22:50) Think about all the different types of stress that we're dealing with these days. So stress and anxiety can keep you from sleeping well. Stress can come from being overworked, or from being an over-exerciser. All of these things can increase your cortisol levels. Cortisol is the stress hormone that can sabotage your weight loss efforts.
