Do you feel stuck in a cycle of counting calories, restricting food, and still not seeing the results you want? You're not alone. In this episode, I break down why focusing on calories is keeping you stuck and how you can finally free yourself from diet culture.

I challenge the age-old belief that calories are the key to weight loss and overall health. Drawing on personal experiences and scientific insights, I reveal why calorie counting often fails in the long term and can even hinder your progress.  

Plus, I explain why hormones, blood sugar balance, and nutrient quality are far more important than the number of calories on a food label. You’ll learn how to listen to your body and fuel it without obsessing over numbers or feeling guilty about your calorie intake.

Conclusion:

It’s time to stop chasing numbers and start focusing on nourishing our bodies with the right foods at the right times. By focusing on blood sugar balance and giving your body what it truly needs, you’ll notice improvements in your health, energy, and overall well-being.
