feeling like your metabolism is “broken” after years of dieting? eating 1200 calories, over-exercising and still not losing weight? you’re not crazy - metabolic adaptation is real. the good news: it’s reversible.

in this episode, i break down:
- what chronic restriction does to your BMR, NEAT, thyroid, leptin/ghrelin + cortisol
- why eating more (strategically) can speed up your metabolism
- how to rebuild trust with your body and fuel without weight spirals
- my 7 metabolism-healing strategies (protein at every meal, carbs for thyroid, strength vs endless cardio, sleep, stress work, etc.)
- a step-by-step 8-week action plan to restore metabolic function

you’ll leave with a practical roadmap to feel warmer, think clearer, move more, sleep better - and finally stop white-knuckling 1200 calories.
