Everyone's talking about Serena Williams and GLP-1s. The headlines are everywhere, the comments are heated, and social media can't stop buzzing.

Forever., I share my take on Serena, GLP-1s, and the bigger questions no one else is asking about weight loss.

In this episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, Craig and I sat down to recap the brand-new Biggest Loser documentary on Netflix. It's a three-part series that dives into one of the most controversial weight loss shows ever — and we went deep breaking it all down. We talked about the pros, the cons, and what the show got completely wrong when it comes to creating lasting results. More importantly, we shared what you can actually take away from watching it — and how those lessons apply to dieting and choosing a more sustainable approach. We also dug into the 2016 research study that followed Biggest Loser contestants years after the show. We gave our take on the findings, what they revealed about metabolism, and what it means for anyone out there trying to lose weight and keep it off. Here's what you'll hear in this episode: Our honest thoughts on Netflix's Biggest Loser documentary The good, the bad, and the ugly of the show's approach Why extreme dieting never works long-term Insights from the 2016 metabolism study Why ownership and sustainability are the real keys to success If you've ever felt frustrated with dieting, struggled to keep weight off, or wondered what really happens when you take extreme approaches to weight loss, you're going to get a lot from this one.   Back To School Challenge Weight Loss Challenge Starts September 8th 8-Week challenge Enter for a chance to win $1500 Learn More About The Challenge Here   Cured Nutrition's Birthday Sale - Up To 40% Off Sitewide - Order From Cured Here   Next Level Links Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com Nutrition Coaching Free Consultations - Schedule Here Next Level Experience Waitlist - Join Here   Craig's Links Focus Journal - Order Here www.greatestdaymindset.com   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide   Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Submit your questions to be featured on our Q&A episodes.   Order from Cured Supplement Order from Legion Supplements and get 20% off your first order by using discount code: keynutrition   Connect with us on Instagram Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

Happy Satiated Saturday! I find it fascinating to explore the layers and layers of connections between trauma and food behaviors. Trauma alters the way you experience bodily sensations. A racing heart can feel like panic rather than excitement. An empty stomach might trigger fear rather than curiosity about food. Over time, the body learns to suppress or disconnect from these cues in an attempt to stay safe. ​Body detachment provided you​ with short term safety, but affected your ability to know how you feel, to understand if you're hungry or full, or to know what you need and when.​ This lowered your interoception or ability to sense and interpret your internal signals in your body. In this week's episode, I chat about: Interoceptive confusionHow low interoception effects food behaviorsTrauma and interoception connectionInteroception practices you can start todayYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode ​here​: https://www.stephaniemara.com/blog/how-trauma-alters-your-sense-of-self-and-eating-habitsI also provide some updates at the end of this episode so be sure to listen to the end! With Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxNewsletter Signup: https://www.stephaniemara.com/subscribeReclaim Your Body Image Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/EkFBjX2QMove Through Binge Urges Workshop: https://satiated.mykajabi.com/offers/nRo7qyFd/checkoutSomatic Eating® Program Waitlist: https://www.somaticeating.com/Free Connect Call to work 1:1: https://www.stephaniemara.com/lets-chatSupport 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. ...

Happy Satiated Saturday! After years and years of navigating food cravings, it was the field of somatics that started to shift my perception of them. I used to think of cravings as something I had to do battle with and couldn't listen to until I realized that I was defining listening to cravings as abiding by them and that listening to my craving meant I needed to eat the food some part of me was telling me to eat. I now experience and teach that cravings are bodily messengers. Cravings are meant to be listened to by bringing in curiosity about what the body might be trying to relay through having you want to eat a particular food. In this week's Satiated Podcast episode, I chat with Jenn Trepeck, Certified Health & Nutrition Coach, about: Decoding cravingsThe nutritional and blood sugar aspects to cravingsThe role of guilt in cravingsPractical strategies to navigating your food cravingsYou can also read the transcript to this week's episode here: www.stephaniemara.com/blog/understanding-the-science-behind-food-cravingsWith Compassion and Empathy, Stephanie Mara FoxKeep in touch with Jenn:Website: https://asaladwithasideoffries.com/ Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/salad-with-a-side-of-fries-nutrition-wellness-weight-loss/id1476096152Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenntrepeck/?hl=enSupport 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. ...

Today's episode is a deep-dive recap of my mind-blowing conversation with Dr. Paul Laursen — one of the world's top experts in exercise physiology, high-intensity interval training (HIIT), and fat-adapted performance. If you've ever wondered: Why you feel better fat-fueled than carb-loaded How diet actually drives fat loss more than training Why ketones might be more than a fuel — and actually a proxy for VO₂ max How to optimize your metabolic flexibility using HIIT and protein-forward nutrition …this episode will change how you see your body composition journey — especially if you've been trying to out-exercise a poor diet.

In this episode, we're diving into three of the most misunderstood and controversial strategies in the nutrition world:Cheat MealsRefeedsDiet BreaksWe're going to break down what each one really means — no fluff, no myths — just the real science and real-life applications.We'll explain how they work, what the research says, and how to know if you should be using them in your plan.But most importantly, we're going to show you how to use these tools strategically — not as excuses to overeat, but as part of a long-term sustainable nutrition strategy that works with your body instead of against it.Let's start with some definitions… because most people are confused right out of the gate.Resources:Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdCaldera Lab Skin Carewww.calderalab.comDiscount Code: CoachDLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

Diet culture has a sneaky way of showing up everywhere. From weightloss plans disguised as “lifestyle changes” to wellness trends promising to heal everything from your skin to your soul. In this encore episode, I'm joined by Christy Harrison, MPH, RD—author of The Wellness Trap and Anti-Diet—to unpack how diet culture infiltrates the wellness world and impacts women's health in ways that are anything but healthy.Christy explains how the multi-billion-dollar wellness industry often sells us pseudoscience, dubious diagnoses, and rigid food rules that can lead to disordered eating and body-image struggles. We talk about why so many people—especially women—get caught in this cycle, how eating disorders aren't always obvious, and why scientific literacy is one of the most powerful tools for protecting your health.You will learn... Why diet culture's obsession with weight loss harms physical and mental healthHow wellness trends exploit fear to sell ineffective or harmful solutionsThe connection between restrictive eating, binge eating, and long-term health issuesWhy women are extra susceptible to falling into diet culture and wellness trendsHow social media and our political climate contributes to wellness mis- and dis-informationRemember: Your worth isn't measured by your weight, your diet, or how “well” you follow health trends. Real wellness is about freedom and self-compassion.Christy Harrison, MPH, RD, is a registered dietitian nutritionist, certified intuitive eating counselor, and journalist who has been covering food, nutrition, and health for more than 20 years. She is the author of two books, The Wellness Trapand Anti-Diet, and host of the podcasts Rethinking Wellness and Food Psych.

Maddy grew up in the perfect storm for developing an unhealthy relationship with food—a fitness instructor mom who equated health with eating only whole foods, a competitive dance culture obsessed with body size, and two households with completely opposite food rules.   By 16, dieting felt like the obvious solution when her body changed.   A six-week CrossFit challenge gave her abs and praise—but also set off years of binge-restrict cycles, chronic scale-stepping, body dysmorphia, and obsessive food thoughts.   She couldn't stop checking her body in the mirror or thinking about what she'd eaten, what she “should” eat next, or how to undo the damage after a binge.   In this episode, Maddy shares how she finally broke free from food obsession, stopped the constant body checking, and learned to feel in control around all foods—without relying on rigid meal plans or restriction.   By adopting the mindset and eating habits of a “naturally thin” person, she not only lost weight but has maintained her results for over 3 years.   If you've ever thought, I just want to be normal around food, Maddy's story will show you it's possible.   Connect with Leslie:   • Website • Instagram • Facebook     If you're struggling with emotional, binge, or compulsive eating and want to master self-control at every bite while turning the volume down on food noise, watch the FREE "Curb the Urge" mini-training and download the accompanying workbook.   Or, if you want to be the first to know when we're opening the doors to our signature psychology-based weight loss program, Outsmart Overeating (and get exclusive access to early bird discounts and fast action bonuses), join the Interest List.

Send me a message - text me! A few days ago, I was standing in a shop sending a parcel when I realised I was surrounded by walls of brightly coloured vape liquids. All lined up like sweets, with flavours from mint to bubblegum to strawberry milkshake. And it got me thinking… Governments have worked so hard to make smoking less appealing. It's hidden behind shutters, wrapped in plain packaging with grim warnings, yet vapes get to sit front and centre looking tempting.While I was mulling this over I realised that dieting is treated in exactly the same way – except the difference is, we rarely talk about the health risks of dieting.So in this episode I'm comparing vaping and dieting – how they're sold as “better” choices, the industries behind them, the addictive cycles they create, and why one gets public health warnings while the other gets praise. I'm digging into the physical and psychological effects of dieting, from metabolism slowdown to hormone disruption, disordered eating, and long-term weight cycling.I'm talking about:The parallels between vaping and dieting as “healthier” alternativesWhy both rely on repeat customers to surviveThe hidden harms and health risks of dieting, backed by researchWhy weight stigma, not body size, costs the NHS moreHow different things could look if dieting got the same treatment as smokingIf you've ever wondered why dieting still gets the cultural gold star when it can be so harmful, this one's going to make you think.
