Welcome to the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast!In today's episode, I cover DEXA Scans, Glucose Monitors, Fat Loss Dieting For Other Reasons Besides Aesthetics. I dive into three great listener questions that challenge some common ideas around fat loss and tracking tools.We get into when it makes sense to diet even if you're not chasing aesthetics, how much trust to put in DEXA scan results, and what blood sugar spikes really tell you (and don't tell you). I also share why context matters with tracking and why some tools might be doing more harm than good if you're not using them right.If you've been second-guessing your progress, confused by numbers, or just want to approach your fat loss and health goals a little smarter—this episode is a must listen.Let's talk about:IntroductionShould fat loss always be about aesthetics?DEXA ScansBlood Sugar Spikes & Glucose TrackingFollow me on Instagram for more information and education:  jeffhoehn_FREE 30 Min Strategy Call: HEREBody Recomp Masterclass: HERENutrition Periodization Masterclass: HEREHow You Can Work With Me?: HERECoaching application: HEREBody Recomp Checklist 2.0: https://chipper-producer-6244.kit.com/26b5c9f94a

Happy Satiated Saturday! How do you feel about eating around others?I remember in my years of struggling with food how scary it would feel to eat with others. There was a constant inner dialogue about eating the "right" things in the "right" amount. I would find myself consistently undereating when going out and then overeating or binge eating when I would get home, as I felt starving and dysregulated. Eating around other people can be filled with anxiety, overwhelm, and fear, where you may find yourself engaging in food behaviors afterward. If you grew up constantly criticized for your food choices, how much you ate, and your appearance, it can feel terrifying to eat around others.In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat about: Fear of Negative Evaluation (FNE)Why binge eating can increase after eating with others Somatic practices to try before, during, and after eating with othersYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/terrifying-to-eat-with-friends-and-familyWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxSupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

Participants naturally ate 196 fewer calories per day, burned an additional 128 calories per day, and stored fewer calories as fat — all without trying to eat less. Vanessa unpacks how these findings support the protein leverage hypothesis, how they apply to real-life fat loss and body recomposition for women, and why increasing protein may be the missing link for anyone stuck in a weight loss plateau. You'll learn how doubling protein affects hunger hormones, metabolism, and nutrient partitioning — plus get Vanessa's own experience applying these principles for effortless appetite control and improved body composition.

SummaryIn this episode of The Chasing Health Podcast, Chase and Chris dive deep into a common summertime mindset: feeling like it's the worst time to focus on your health. They talk about how many people delay their goals because of vacations, cookouts, or busy schedules, but that just keeps you stuck in the same cycle year after year. Instead, they encourage you to work on building better habits that fit your life now, not later. They break down how real coaching is different from just dieting, it's flexible, realistic, and helps you enjoy your summer while still making progress. Whether it's learning how to enjoy that cookout without guilt, or how to shift routines as summer schedules change, this episode shows you that summer can be a starting point, not a setback.Chapters(00:00) Why Summer Feels So Hard for So Many(01:36) "There's Always Something": The Year-Round Excuse Loop(03:18) Dieting vs Coaching Through Summer(05:07) How Our Clients Are Winning Without Being Perfect(07:00) Life Doesn't Pause—So Why Should Your Goals?(10:29) Dirty Keto, Real Coaching, and Building Flexibility(12:53) Coaching Through Real Life (Even Grad Parties & Ice Cream)(14:35) Planning for Success, Not Perfection(16:51) Tools to Navigate Events Without Diet Guilt(19:06) Breaking the Cycle of Falling Off & Starting Over(22:04) "I'll Start After…" Is Keeping You Stuck(24:23) Changing Routines?

Happy Satiated Saturday! A common theme I've seen over the years working with women 1:1 is that for many (myself included), body image concerns started during teenage years. Ugh, a shifting and changing body is so difficult to be with, to trust, and to come home to. Your body is going to change again and again throughout your life. That can feel terrifying. When you've experienced past trauma where everything felt unknown and unstable, a body that changes and has different daily needs can be triggering. It can remind you of all that you've gone through, where you felt out of control. When you're in a time of transition with your body, there can be fear of the unknown. The anxiety is often less about what your body will look like, but about losing safety, acceptance, love, and respect. Your body will need your compassion, curiosity, and care as you navigate these scary changes.In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Natalie Rose, Eating Disorder Therapist and Coach, about: How Natalie has navigated the bodily changes she has been going through in her pregnancyHow she's kept her own food recovery intact along the wayThe journey of building trust in your bodyNavigating bodily discomfortEmbracing an internal rebelEbbing and flowing with body image challengesYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-to-trust-your-body-through-every-life-phaseWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Natalie Rose here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wakeupandsmelltherosay/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wakeupandsmelltherosayWebsite: www.wakeupandsmelltherosay.comYouTube: youtube.com/@wakeupandsmelltherosaySupport the showKeep in touch with Stephanie Mara:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/_stephaniemara/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stephaniemarafoxWebsite: https://www.stephaniemara.com/https://www.somaticeating.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephmara/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stephaniemarafoxContact: support@stephaniemara.comSupport the show:Become a supporter: https://www.buzzsprout.com/809987/supportMy favorite water filter: https://www.pureeffectfilters.com/#a_aid=somaticeatingReceive 15% off my fave protein powder with code STEPHANIEMARA at checkout here: https://www.equipfoods.com/STEPHANIEMARAUse my Amazon Affiliate link when shopping on Amazon: https://amzn.to/448IyPl Special thanks to Bendsound for the music in this episode. ...

The study dives deep into muscle growth, fat-free mass, and body composition outcomes — and the results challenge some long-held beliefs. Vanessa goes into the exact nutrition and training protocols used in the study, including how many grams of carbs women in the fed group consumed pre-workout, how protein was controlled, and what the fasted group ate instead. You'll learn: Why this new study is so groundbreaking — especially for women How fasted training may actually improve fat-free mass in certain conditions How the viral 30/30/30 method (30g protein within 30 minutes of waking + 30 minutes cardio) stacks up to the evidence Whether the 30/30/30 routine is necessary, helpful, or overhyped for fat loss This episode is packed with insights and practical takeaways for women pursuing fat loss, lean muscle retention, and metabolic health using science-based tools — without falling for social media myths.

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright explore why metabolic health transformations require time, persistence, and a holistic approach. Andrea shares her 14-year journey with Dr. Cooper, highlighting the slow, individualized nature of healing a dysfunctional metabolism and why quick fixes rarely work. Dr. Cooper explains how complex feedback loops, hormonal adaptations, and life events can slow progress—and why health markers, not just the number on the scale, are crucial measures of success. The conversation encourages patience, self-compassion, and a focus on sustainable health, not just rapid weight loss.Key Takeaways:Healing metabolic dysfunction is a complex, highly individualized process that often takes years—not weeks or months.Dieting, stress, disrupted sleep, and misguided exercise can send the body into "famine mode," making weight loss even harder.Metrics like blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose often improve before significant weight loss occurs—these health gains matter.Medications and bariatric surgery can help in stubborn cases, but long-term success depends on a combination of medical, lifestyle, and psychological support.As many as 20% of patients may be "non-responders" to current treatments, highlighting the need for ongoing metabolic research and new therapies.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea details her long road—from early GLP-1 medications and plateaus to bariatric surgery and ongoing adjustments—with the emphasis that patience paid off.Dr. Cooper and Mark reinforce the importance of redefining food as fuel and joy, not the enemy, and letting go of blame or unrealistic expectations tied to the scale.The episode highlights small wins, the value of routine lab work, and celebrating all forms of progress—especially the non-scale victories.Resources:Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

If you've ever been confused by conflicting advice online — especially around how women “should” train or eat protein — this one's for you. TOP 12 MYTHS: The RDA for protein, high protein diets &  kidneys or bones, mTOR activation is bad for longevity, building muscle during your luteal phase, timing rules for protein and fasting, do women need less protein than men, muscle loss and menopause, lifting heavy vs moderate to get results and much more! Dr. Phillips brings research-backed clarity to all of these claims — including findings from his lab and collaborations with Dr. Lauren Colenso-Semple.

PCOS and managing any health condition that calls for dietary changes can be really challenging when you're also trying to stay off diets and heal your relationship with food.   My guest today is a fellow non-diet dietitian. Julie Duffy Dillon is a Registered Dietitian and Host of Find Your Food Voice®, a popular long running nutrition podcast. Through speaking and writing, she helps people with a complicated relationship with food strategize how to remove the shame and blame dumped on them from the diet industry. Her work has been featured on TLC and in the New York Times, Outside Magazine, Shape and other outlets. She is the author of the book, Find Your Food Voice.   We cover a lot of ground in this conversation - including what it's like coming up as a dietitian in the medical field that very much subscribes to a weight-centric model of care, and we both spilled some tea about the inner reckonings we had that shook us and caused us to change the path we were on in our careers.    We also talked about emotional eating - Julie has a hot take on this that you don't want to miss.    Julie shares some great strategies for how to navigate health conditions like PCOS, HTN, diabetes, IBS, high chol, and things like that without getting sucked back into dieting.    Make sure you listen towards the end for the part where Julie talks about the concept of “finding your food voice” which is such a cool concept that is going to help you to silence diet culture and your inner critic as you are learning to trust yourself with food.    As you can tell, this is an incredible conversation, so pop in your ear buds, push play and get ready to be inspired!   Episode Highlights   -Why Julie bailed on the nutrition class she was teaching 5 minutes into it and almost got fired. -How chronic illnesses like PCOS, diabetes, high blood pressure, IBS, and high cholesterol impact our relationship with food. -PCOS and what mainstream medical culture gets wrong about it. -Finding your “food voice” and how this will help you make peace with food.   Resources Mentioned   - Connect with Julie Duffy Dillon on social media @FoodVoiceRD - Grab a copy of Julie's book Find Your Food Voice - Julie Duffy Dillon's website   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey   Intuitive eating education on the blog Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster     Connect with Katy Harvey   Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD      Subscribe and Review   Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

This week on Fat Science, Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright break down the latest science behind GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro. Dr. Cooper shares her decades of expertise on how these drugs work, their evolution, and whether you really have to take them for life. The episode dives deep into the individual factors that impact tapering off, the importance of metabolic signals (like famine and security signals), and why medication is just one piece of the metabolic puzzle. Key Takeaways:GLP-1 medications have advanced significantly, with more convenient dosing and greater effectiveness for many—but responses vary widely from patient to patient.Weight on the scale isn't the only measure; body composition, nutrient levels, and metabolic markers are critical in determining treatment and possible tapering.Not everyone needs to take GLP-1s forever—tapering is possible, but it depends on individual health markers, genetics, and whether metabolic signals are balanced.The future of metabolic health lies in combination therapies that target multiple pathways, not just GLP-1s.Dieting alone disrupts metabolic signals, making professional metabolic medicine and nutrition guidance essential for long-term health.Resources:Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

Happy Satiated Saturday! It can be confusing what path to choose for your food recovery when there are many different paths you can walk. When exploring all the various avenues, you can focus on your experience of choice. There is no "right" way to decrease your food coping mechanisms. It gets to be unique to you, your body, and what supports you in feeling the way you want to feel in your life. Your recovery resources are your choice (something that the experience of trauma can feel like it took away from you). When trying out any somatic, nervous system, trauma, parts practices, you can observe how you feel before, during, and after to discover which practices resonate with you. You will receive this bodily feedback by tracking your capacity to flow through dysregulation, big emotions and sensations, and what helps you to return to yourself again and again. In this week's episode, I chat with Caroline McNally, Hypnotherapist & Longevity Coach, about: Hypnotherapy resources you can use on yourself to navigate food urges and impulsesUtilizing visualization for navigating your relationship with foodThe importance of laughter on this healing journey Reminding yourself that you have a choiceYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/food-cravings-with-self-hypnosis-resources6 more days to sign up for the Somatic Eating® Program! In three months together, you will walk away with an abundance of various somatic practices to navigate your food cravings with connection, embodiment, and experience of choice.

Join Dr. Emily Cooper, Andrea Taylor, and Mark Wright on Fat Science as they unpack the complexities of dosing GLP-1 medications for metabolic health and weight management. Dr. Cooper emphasizes the importance of an individualized approach, debunking the myth that higher doses or faster titration always lead to better outcomes. The team addresses listener questions about how and when to increase doses, highlight the risks of rapid escalation, and discuss the nuanced ways these drugs impact metabolic health beyond just weight loss. Real-life experiences and thoughtful, science-backed guidance will help you navigate your own journey with metabolic dysfunction and medication.Key Takeaways:Dosing of GLP-1 medications should always be tailored to the individual, considering response, side effects, and other health factors—not just the speed of weight loss.Starting at the lowest dose and titrating slowly increases medication tolerance and long-term effectiveness.Lab markers such as A1C, glucose, cholesterol, and muscle mass are key indicators in determining if the medication and dosing are "working."Rapidly escalating to the highest dose can backfire, causing side effects and limiting future treatment options.Dieting mindsets and using medication solely as an appetite suppressant can lead to loss of lean mass and suboptimal health outcomes.Ongoing patient-provider relationships and regular lab work ensure medication strategies remain safe and effective.Personal Stories & Practical Advice:Andrea reflects on her initial desire for quick fixes and shares lessons learned about patience, nourishment, and long-term progress. Mark discusses insurance-driven medication switches and finding the “sweet spot” for dosing with Dr. Cooper's guidance.Resources:Connect with Dr. Emily Cooper on LinkedIn.Connect with Mark Wright on LinkedIn.Connect with Andrea Taylor on Instagram.Fat Science is a podcast on a mission to explain where our fat really comes from and why it won't go and stay away.

Happy Satiated Saturday! When you're feeling threatened in your body, hunger and fullness cues can feel wonky and also frightening. Hunger can come out of nowhere and remind you how little control you may feel in your life right now.

If you ignore hunger, you can also ignore the pain that hunger reminds you of. In this week's episode, I chat about: The somatic and cognitive influences on hungerHow the felt sense of hunger gets paired with danger Somatic practices to update your body's hunger story You can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/why-youre-afraid-of-feeling-hungryIf you're looking for support to update your body's story of hunger, come join the Somatic Eating® Program.
