Podcasts about Weight loss

https://www.instagram.com/shaygrounded/In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I sat down with Shay, known as Shaygrounded on Instagram and TikTok. Shay is currently on a weight loss journey that started at nearly 400 pounds. She's already down over 30 pounds, but that's not the most impressive part of her story. What made me want to bring her on the show is the stance she has taken from day one. Radical accountability. Radical ownership. No excuses. No blame. No victim mentality. In a world where it's easy to point fingers at genetics, society, trauma, the system, or the body positivity movement, Shay has done something different. She has publicly said, "I am responsible for where I am." And that hasn't made everyone happy. Some within the body positivity space have pushed back on her message because she refuses to play the victim. She doesn't blame anyone else for being in the position she's in. She owns it. Fully. Not only that, she started documenting her journey publicly on Instagram and TikTok to hold herself accountable. She shares the wins. The struggles. The hard truths. The uncomfortable realizations. All of it. It's a breath of fresh air. Other creators have taken notice. And for good reason. Because ownership is powerful. And as you guys know, victims never win. Shay is the furthest thing from a victim. In this conversation we talk about: What it actually feels like to top out at almost 400 pounds Why radical ownership changed everything for her The backlash she has received for refusing to blame anyone else Using social media as an accountability tool instead of a highlight reel The mindset shifts required to create real, sustainable change Why brutal honesty is one of the most underrated transformation tools This episode will challenge you. It will empower you. And most importantly, it will force you to look in the mirror and ask yourself where you might still be outsourcing responsibility in your own life. If you are serious about changing your body, your mindset, or your life, this one is for you. Own your shit. Change your life.     Next Level Links: Nutrition Coaching Free Consultations - Schedule Here Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive  Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   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   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Guest Shaylyn - @shaygrounded Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

Jim Peeler lives in Hickory, a small city in North Carolina's foothills. He and his wife, Diana, have two adult children who both live in the mountains of western NC, and one grandson. Jim is a financial controller for a logistics company.Jim has just passed his two-year anniversary of fasting on February 1, 2026. This past year, Jim has completed his first year of maintenance and offers great insight in this episode. Now 65 years old, Jim has struggled with weight issues at least since the 5th grade of elementary school, at theage of ten. He has lost hundreds of pounds over the years, using various methods, but has always regained even more once the diet ended. The hope is that intermittent fasting will hold the key to finally losing significant weight for good. Looking back, Jim realises that over his life he had reached a tipping point roughly every 10 years that prompted him to start a serious weight-loss attempt, with numerous attempts in between that never lasted very long. Jim was successful at losing weight in these serious attempts, shedding more and more pounds each time, but the diet rollercoaster led him to heavier weights with each try until he reached a maximum weight of 245 pounds in late 2018. And at only 5 feet, 4 inches, he was seriously morbidly obese. Through 2019 and 2020, he successfully reached150 pounds through calorie reduction and walking, but by 2024, he had once again risen to 215 pounds following a job change and the loss of his mother, among other stressful situations. He had heard of intermittent fasting some time before, but had never seriously considered it until he decided to give it a try in February 2024. Since then, he has lived a fasting lifestyle and is on the path to long-term maintenance, thanks to intermittent fasting. Graeme's Links to connect with me directly. Come and Join Our Patreon Community At the Link Belowwww.patreon.com/thefastinghighway.Come for a month or stay for a year, check it out, and get all the content.

In this jaw-dropping episode , we sit down with George Day — one of the most prolific yet largely unknown drug kingpins in American history. Raised in Washington, DC, George was literally born into the drug trade. By age six, he was traveling across the border with his father, helping smuggle hundreds of pounds of marijuana hidden inside a Winnebago. As he grew older, his life spiraled deeper into the underworld — from trimming weed in Mexico to handling massive cash pickups and negotiating with Colombian suppliers before he was even a teenager. After his father's sudden death, George found himself — at just 11 years old — sitting on a multimillion-dollar drug ledger, forced to navigate dangerous debts, cartel relationships, and violent street politics. What followed was the rise of a cocaine empire that eventually stretched across all 50 states… and ultimately led to a life sentence plus 90 years in federal prison. This is Part 1 of an unbelievable story about family, survival, crime, and the realities of growing up inside America's drug economy.

Body language sends signals we're often unaware of — and apparently, that includes your belly button. Where it points can subtly communicate interest, attention, and even attraction. This episode begins with the surprising message your belly button may be sending — and what you might be picking up from others without realizing it. Source: Janine Driver author of You Say More Than You Think (https://amzn.to/3SPYVwt). Have you ever eaten when you weren't hungry… or kept eating even though you were already full — and then wondered why you did that? Most people assume it's about willpower. It isn't. Dr. Jud Brewer explains what's really driving those urges and how to break the cycle without dieting, restriction, or guilt. He's a professor at Brown University's School of Public Health and author of The Hunger Habit: Why We Eat When We're Not Hungry and How to Stop. His work reveals how to stop fighting food — and actually enjoy it more (https://amzn.to/49sbiEw). The App is called "Eat Right Now" and is available wherever you get your apps. We like to believe we're good at predicting the future — our careers, relationships, finances, and even how we'll feel. But humans are notoriously bad at understanding randomness, coincidence, and probability. Why do coincidences seem so meaningful? Why does randomness never look random? And how does this distort the predictions we make about our own lives? Kit Yates joins me to unpack the science behind prediction — and when it's smarter not to predict at all. He's author of How to Expect the Unexpected: The Science of Making Predictions—and the Art of Knowing When Not To (https://amzn.to/3Ur3PRM). In 2008, Oxford University compiled a list of the most overused and despised words and phrases in the English language. We wrap up by revealing what made the list — and how painfully familiar many of them still sound today. https://www.wired.com/2008/11/oxford-research/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince!

Today, I'm delighted to welcome Dr. Yael Joffe, a leading expert in nutrigenomics who speaks internationally at conferences on translating the science of genetics into clinical practice. She holds a PhD in nutrigenomics from the University of Cape Town, where her research focused on the genetics of obesity. I met Yael earlier this fall and decided to invite her on the podcast to explore the growing field of lifestyle genetics. In our conversation today, we dive into the effects of nutrigenomics, nutrition genetics, and SNPs, which she refers to as spelling changes in our DNA. We cover genetic testing in the industry, red flags, DNA health, and her polygenic approach to weight loss resistance. We also discuss both perimenopause and menopause from the perspective of genetics and epigenetics, and the role of insulin signalling and glucose. Yael's insights are deeply informative. Her pioneering work on 36 metabolic pathways and her ability to make complex genetic information accessible and actionable make this a truly invaluable conversation. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Women and gaining weight after starting HRT Neurotransmitters and what they reveal about mood, anxiety, and addiction tendencies Why do certain people break down dopamine and serotonin either too fast or too slowly? How touch and genuine connection can switch on feel-good genes Sunlight, weather, and environment affect genetic expression. What acupuncture and infrared therapies do at the gene level Why hormones are only part of the picture when addressing midlife weight gain How glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity shift through menopause Dr. Joffe's polygenic testing model connects multiple pathways rather than single genes How Yael's approach to genetic testing differs from that of others in the field Bio: YAEL JOFFE, PhD  Yael is globally recognized as a leading expert in nutrigenomics. In 2000, she was part of the team that built the first lifestyle genetics test, and since then has been responsible for creating many others. She is the author of four books: The Power of Genetics, It's Not Just Your Genes, Genes to Plate, and SNP Journal. Yael has been published in multiple peer-reviewed scientific journals, hosts the Power of Genetics podcast, and is a highly regarded speaker in genetics. Yael built the first online nutrigenomics platform for clinician education and has developed and supervised genomics courses around the world. She has trained thousands of healthcare practitioners globally, also teaching at Rutgers University and the Maryland University of Integrative Health. In 2018, Yael founded 3X4 Genetics and now serves as its Chief Science Officer.    Connect with Cynthia Thurlow   Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Join other like-minded women in a supportive, nurturing community (The Midlife Pause/Cynthia Thurlow)  Cynthia's Menopause Gut Book is on presale now!

Okay babes… this is a very special Free The Moms episode.This one is actually a replay-style webinar training that I hosted, and I decided to bring it to the podcast because this conversation needs to happen out loud. We are talking all things peptides. Yes, GLP-1s. And also NAD+, glutathione, B12, BPC-157 and more. But the main focus of this training is GLP-1s—why so many of my clients are taking them, why some are microdosing, why some are on a full weight-loss dose… and why I personally am on a microdose.I'll be honest with you. I was nervous to release this. There is still so much stigma around GLP-1s. And I don't love that. So we're de-stigmatizing it. We're having the conversation. Because my job is to bring you information, empowerment, and options—without shame.Inside this episode, I walk you through:- What peptides actually are (and why they're not some scary foreign thing)- The difference between microdosing a GLP-1 and using a full weight-loss dose- Why I chose to microdose—and how I think about it in the context of longevity and metabolic health- Semaglutide vs tirzepatide (single agonist vs dual agonist) and what that actually means- What my clients are experiencing on these medications- Side effects like nausea and how they're managing it- Why medical oversight matters and how to think about doing this responsiblyWe also talk about other supportive peptides like NAD+ and glutathione, and why this conversation is bigger than “just weight loss.” For many of my clients, this is about metabolic healing, inflammation, energy, and feeling like themselves again.If you're curious, skeptical, interested, or just want to understand what the heck everyone is talking about, this episode is for you. You get to decide what's right for your body. Always.If you want to explore further, you can check out the peptides portal here:https://lmd.com/LauraConleyAnd if you attended the webinar live (or signed up), you'll receive the replay, consult link, booking link, and all resources via email.I love you guys. I'm proud of you for being open-minded. And I'm committed to giving you the tools and information you need to make empowered choices for your health. Hosted on Acast.

This episode covers: • Microplastics Are Destroying Male Fertility and Metabolism New research is putting microplastics in a category most men still are not taking seriously: direct reproductive and hormone risk. A 2024 study detected microplastics in every human testicle examined, with polyethylene and PVC among the most common polymers. PVC is especially relevant because it's often tied to chemical additives that can disrupt endocrine signaling. The broader body of evidence points to micro- and nanoplastics crossing barriers like the blood–testis barrier, driving inflammation and oxidative stress in the testes, and showing associations with impaired sperm quality and hormone disruption. The longevity move here is reducing overall load: better water filtration, less plastic food contact, no heating food in plastic, fewer packaged foods, and taking indoor dust and air quality seriously, especially for men thinking about fertility now or hormone resilience over decades. • Sources: – Study (PubMed): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38745431/ – Coverage: https://people.com/microplastics-in-every-human-testicle-infertility-8651215 • Fear of Aging Is Linked to Faster Biological Aging A new study ties aging anxiety to measurable acceleration in biological aging using DNA methylation clocks. People who reported more worry and negative beliefs about aging showed faster epigenetic aging signals, and the molecular differences clustered around stress and inflammatory pathways. In plain terms, chronic threat-mode thinking around aging maps onto biology that looks older on the clocks. For a longevity audience, this is a practical reminder that mental inputs affect physiological outputs. If your day-to-day mindset is constant pressure and decline narratives, that can show up downstream in stress biology and inflammatory tone. A smarter play is building a longevity framework around function, strength, purpose, and community, alongside the usual pillars like sleep, training, and metabolic health. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-older-links-health-faster-epigenetic.html • Additional source: https://www.nyu.edu/about/news-publications/news/2026/february/aging-anxiety.html • Retatrutide, the Triple-Agonist Weight-Loss Drug Pushing Bariatric-Level Results Retatrutide is a triple agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, and the weight-loss numbers being reported are massive. In a 68-week study in people with obesity and knee osteoarthritis, the highest dose group averaged about 28.7% body-weight loss, along with meaningful improvements in knee pain and function. This is the next phase of incretin medicine: multi-agonist drugs that can move body weight by a quarter or more. For biohackers, the performance and longevity angle is implementation: preserving lean mass through resistance training, hitting protein targets, monitoring micronutrients, and building a maintenance plan that doesn't collapse the moment the drug stops. The upside is cardiometabolic risk reduction at scale. The key is running it with structure. • Sources: – Eli Lilly release: https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/lillys-triple-agonist-retatrutide-delivered-weight-loss-average – Coverage: https://nypost.com/2026/02/18/health/people-dropped-out-of-retatrutide-trial-for-losing-too-much-weight/ – Background: https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2026/02/whats-next-for-glp-1s/ • AI Can Predict 130 Diseases From a Single Night of Sleep Stanford's SleepFM project shows how much long-horizon health information is encoded in sleep. Researchers trained a foundation model on roughly 585,000 hours of clinical polysomnography data from about 65,000 people. From a single night of sleep study signals, the model could estimate risk for 130 conditions, including dementia, heart attack, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, stroke, atrial fibrillation, and all-cause mortality, and it generalized across cohorts better than simple demographic baselines. The big implication is that sleep architecture and micro-patterns (stage distribution, fragmentation, breathing stability, micro-arousals) function like a dense biomarker stream for systemic aging and disease risk. Expect better sensors and more validated risk dashboards over time. Right now, this is another reason to treat sleep as a core diagnostic pillar, not just a recovery habit. • Sources: – Stanford Medicine: https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2026/01/ai-sleep-disease.html – Paper (Nature Medicine): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-04133-4 • Living at High Altitude May Protect Against Diabetes by Turning Red Blood Cells Into Glucose Sinks For years, population data has suggested lower diabetes rates at higher elevations. New mechanistic work is pointing to a surprising driver: red blood cells changing how they handle glucose under low oxygen conditions. In hypoxia, red blood cells can behave like glucose sinks, pulling more sugar out of circulation and improving glucose tolerance, which may help explain the protective association seen at altitude. The downstream potential is a new class of altitude-mimetic approaches that target erythrocyte metabolism as a glucose lever, separate from appetite suppression or classic diabetes pathways. For biohackers, it expands the metabolic toolkit and reinforces that oxygen environment and blood physiology matter more than we've given them credit for. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-red-blood-cells-sugar-high.html • Dietary Supplement Regulatory Uniformity Act and the Future of Supplement Access A proposed bill is aiming to stop states from layering extra rules on dietary supplements beyond federal law, creating one national standard instead of a patchwork of state-by-state restrictions. Industry groups are supporting it as a way to reduce confusion and compliance chaos, especially as some states explore age limits or special labeling requirements for certain supplement categories. The strategic implication for biohackers is that regulation shapes access. Uniformity can stabilize availability, but it also raises the stakes of federal decisions on controversial ingredients. This is one of those policy stories that quietly determines what stays on shelves, what disappears, and how much innovation survives in the supplement space. • Sources: – NutritionInsight: https://www.nutritioninsight.com/news/npa-crn-supplements-us-fda-legislation.html – Congressional release: https://langworthy.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-langworthy-introduces-dietary-supplement-regulatory-uniformity-act – NutraIngredients: https://www.nutraingredients.com/Article/2026/02/05/new-bill-aims-to-end-state-supplement-regulations/ All source links are provided for direct access to the original reporting and research.

n this episode of the Discover Strength Podcast, CEO and exercise physiologist Luke Carlson breaks down new research on resistance training and fat loss. He reviews a recent study published in Frontiers in Endocrinology and connects it to over a decade of evidence on how strength training influences body composition.Luke explains why the goal of weight loss should be fat loss—not just a lower number on the scale—and how resistance training helps preserve or increase lean muscle while maximizing fat reduction. He also explores the critical role of abdominal fat in cardiometabolic risk and what the latest findings reveal about reducing central obesity.If you want to understand the science behind “high-quality weight loss” and why lifting weights is essential for long-term health and weight maintenance, this episode delivers the key takeaways.Discover Strength offers free Introductory Workouts at any location across the United States.

Movement That Boosts Energy Without the Gym If you're exhausted, more intensity may not be the solution. For high-achieving women over 40, the body no longer responds to force the way it once did. It responds to load management, nervous system regulation and recovery. In this episode, Nikki T breaks down: Why traditional workouts can increase fatigue after 40 The difference between performance-driven exercise and restorative movement Why your body resists “starting again” The three qualities of movement that actually rebuild energy If you've been pushing harder but feeling more depleted, this episode will shift your strategy. After 40, energy isn't created through pressure. It's restored through recalibration. If this resonated, you're likely not lacking discipline ... you're overloaded. Private coaching is where we restructure how stress, identity and leadership pressure are impacting your weight and energy. This is high-level, high-touch work for women ready to operate differently.

If you're a coffee drinker, you've probably wondered at some point whether you're drinking too much. Coffee gets blamed for everything from poor sleep to heart trouble — but a major long-term study tells a very different story. This episode begins with findings that may surprise (and reassure) coffee lovers. https://www.bmj.com/content/359/bmj.j5024 Eyeglasses are so common today that it's easy to forget how revolutionary they are. Before glasses, millions of people were cut off from reading, learning, working, and fully participating in society. The invention of eyeglasses didn't just improve vision — it reshaped education, labor, science, and culture. David King Dunaway joins me to tell this surprisingly underappreciated story. He's a professor of English at the University of New Mexico and the University of São Paulo, and author of A Four-Eyed World: How Glasses Changed the Way We See (https://amzn.to/46nqL9y). David's website is here: https://afoureyedworld.com/ Most people avoid complaining — it feels awkward, time-consuming, or not worth the effort. But when you don't complain, you often end up paying for mistakes that aren't yours. When done the right way, complaining can be effective, respectful, and surprisingly rewarding. Eric Zse explains when to speak up, what to say, and how to get results without being rude or angry. He's author of The Art of the Constructive Complaint: How to Speak Up, Get Heard, and Turn Everyday Frustrations into Fair Outcomes (https://amzn.to/45Sdi9L). And finally — have you ever walked into another room and instantly forgotten why you went there? It happens to almost everyone, and it has a name: the doorway effect. We wrap up with the fascinating reason this happens — and why it has nothing to do with memory loss or aging.

If you're eating clean, working out, taking supplements — and STILL feeling tired, inflamed, or stuck with weight loss… this episode is for you. In this Q&A episode of The Health Revival Show, Liz & Becca break down the real reason so many women struggle with fatigue, inflammation, slow metabolism, and subtle hormone or gut symptoms — even when labs look “normal.” They explain: • Why inflammation changes how your body responds to food, exercise, and hormones • The difference between chronic illness cases vs early warning signs • Why more restriction isn't the answer (and often backfires) • How cellular health, mitochondria, thyroid, and metabolism are connected • Who their new 3-month metabolic reset program is actually for If you've been told “everything looks normal” but know something feels off… this episode gives you the missing context and next step. *** CONNECT:

You can follow a solid protocol for Hashimoto's and still feel like something is not fully clicking.Your labs may look better. Your inflammation markers may improve. But your body still feels braced, wired, or unable to truly settle.In this episode, Inna sits down with Dr. Karyn Shanks to talk about a layer of healing that rarely gets addressed, hypervigilance.We explore how overfunctioning, overworking, and constantly being on can become a stress pattern that keeps cortisol elevated and the immune system reactive. Not because you are failing, but because your nervous system has learned to stay alert.You will see how sensations like throat tightness, chest constriction, or a constant sense of urgency are not random. We talk about the difference between a sensation and the story your brain builds around it, and why giving a feeling space for even ninety seconds can shift your physiology.We also discuss trauma informed care, why safety has to come before deeper healing, and how overdoing can be tied to worthiness and performance rather than true resilience.Healing is not only biochemical. It is also nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and learning when to say yes and when to say no.This episode will help you look at your thyroid healing through a wider lens and understand what might still be keeping your body on guard.For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/hashimotos-protocol-karyn-shanks/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping If you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcallFor more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.com

In this final episode of the SugarFreeMD After Dark series, Dr. Stacy answers the most common—and most honest—questions women ask about sex, desire, and intimacy in midlife.If you've ever wondered:Is it normal to love my partner but not want sex anymore?Why does sex hurt now when it never used to?Why am I never thinking about sex unless someone brings it up?Is it normal to need lube every time?Why do I feel so self-conscious about my body all of a sudden?…you are not alone—and nothing is “wrong” with you.In this candid Q&A, Dr. Stacy breaks down what's actually happening with hormones, tissue changes, desire shifts, body image, and nervous system stress during perimenopause and menopause. She explains why spontaneous desire often disappears, why responsive desire is normal, and how planning intimacy can actually protect connection—not ruin it.This episode is educational, empowering, and real.

If you're over 40 and still measuring your health success by what the scale says, you might be solving the wrong problem entirely. I spent nearly two decades as a personal trainer watching people chase a number while the things that actually predict long-term health — energy, strength, sleep, and connection — quietly slipped through the cracks. In this episode, I'm sharing six specific things that matter more than weight loss after 40, plus a simple weekly checklist you can start using today.In this episode, you'll find the answers to:Why is strength training more important than weight loss for people over 40 — and what does the research actually say about muscle and long-term health?What does sleep have to do with cravings, metabolism, and willpower — and how much do you actually need?Why does social connection show up on a health checklist — and what does loneliness actually do to your body?Start your free 7-day trial at Begin Within Fitness — no credit card required: https://www.beginwithin.fit/7dayLink to the goodies I mentioned: https://www.beginwithin.fit/toolkitConnect with me: https://www.beginwithin.fit/If you're enjoying the Begin Within Health Show, please consider subscribing/following and leaving a 5-star review!

“That's the thing that's maybe getting lost in some of the fear mongering around it is that, it's not the easy way out. It doesn't mean that you don't have to do the work. It means that when you do the work, the work actually makes the difference.” —Aja BeckettFood noise can sit in the back of the mind all day, from planning the next meal at breakfast to carrying quiet shame after every snack. In a culture that moralizes weight and labels bodies as failures, real medical treatment for obesity often gets buried under hot takes about shortcuts and cheating. This conversation brings the lived reality of GLP-1 medication into the light, with honesty about both relief and responsibility.Aja Beckett shares decades of struggling with obesity, endless diets, and that constant mental hum around food, then walks through how starting a GLP-1 weight loss drug shifted cravings, energy, and hope. Her experience led to building Shotsy, a companion app that tracks doses, side effects, and progress for people on GLP-1 medications.Press play to hear how this new class of medications is reshaping daily life, mindset, and digital tools around obesity care, including:What GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy actually do in the bodyThe difference between “food noise” and genuine hungerWhy weight loss drugs are not a lazy shortcut or moral failureHow mental health, cravings, and compulsive behaviors often change on GLP-1sThe cost, access, and safety concerns around weight loss injections and pillsHow a GLP-1 tracking app grew from one person's spreadsheet into a fast-growing productWhat long-term obesity treatment and maintenance can realistically look likeConnect with Heather:WebsiteLinkedInInstagramFacebookYouTubeEpisode Highlights:01:11 Meet Aja Beckett: Founder of Shotsy & GLP‑1 Success Story04:43 Discovering Ozempic & a Difficult Doctor's Visit07:35 Beyond Weight Loss: GLP‑1, Mental Health & Addictive Behaviors10:43 Losing 90 Pounds: From Obesity to Healthy BMI13:30 Do You Still Have to Eat Healthy & Work Out on GLP‑1?16:21 When the Food Noise Stops: First Days on GLP‑119:37 Super Bowl Snacks, Portion Control & Balanced Indulgence22:12 Body Dysmorphia in Bigger & Smaller Bodies26:00 Safety vs Affordability: Regulation, Shortages & DIY Risks32:09 Introducing Shotsy: The GLP‑1 Companion App Idea39:50 Why Tools Like Shotsy Matter for Accountability & Tracking42:21 GLP‑1 Isn't the “Easy Way Out”: Doing the Work & Seeing ResultsResources:

Have you ever found yourself thinking, "I just need a jumpstart," or "If the scale would move, I'd feel more motivated"? On the surface, that sounds completely reasonable. Of course you want to see that your effort is working. But most of the time, there's something deeper happening underneath that thought.   In this episode, I unpack what "I just need to see results" usually really means in weight loss. I show you how to stay steady when things feel uncertain, and build something that actually holds up when real life shows up.   Tune in this week to learn how to shift from chasing early wins to building real self-trust. I walk you through the difference between outcome-based motivation and follow-through-based confidence, why so many people abandon plans not because they failed, but because the reassurance faded, and how redefining what counts as progress can change your entire experience with weight loss.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/191   Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/

Picture two plates. One has leafy greens, colorful vegetables, berries, salmon, whole grains, olive oil, and water. The other has a big steak, butter, and whole milk.Both reflect official government dietary recommendations. But here's the twist: one plate represents what Canada, Sweden, Germany, China, the Netherlands, and India all basically agree on. The other comes from just one country—a country that looked at the same nutrition science and went in a completely different direction.Which country? And why?In Part 3 of our Dietary Guidelines series, Amy takes you on a global tour to uncover why the new U.S. food pyramid is a stark outlier from international consensus. She reveals what happened to the 400-page scientific report from 20 independent researchers—and why industry groups are celebrating while scientists are raising concerns.You'll discover:Why the food pyramid was retired 15 years ago—and why it's suddenly backWhat Sweden, Germany, the Netherlands, and other European countries actually recommendWhy China and India's guidelines look nothing like the new U.S. pyramidHow Canada created a science-based guide that aligns with the MIND diet for brain healthThe specific foods that can reduce Alzheimer's risk by up to 53%Plus, Amy shares her free printable MIND Diet wallet card and gives you three actionable steps to put this episode into practice.If you've been confused by the new dietary guidelines, this episode will give you clarity—and a clear path forward for your brain health.

Send a textWelcome back to Weight Loss Wednesday. In episode 160, I'm answering your questions about consistency with accountability, calorie perspective, low TDEE fears, sweeteners, managing sweets and chips as a diabetic, and flavour drops for water. This episode is practical, direct, and a reminder that weight loss works best when you build it in a way that actually fits your real life.What I cover in this episode:• Why accountability starts with awareness and acknowledgement, not willpower• The 3A Way framework and how skipping the middle step sabotages consistency• Why you cannot successfully hold yourself accountable to something you refuse to fully admit is happening• How to make accountability easier• Why consistency is incremental and does not require perfection• Why calories are relative• How your starting point changes what “high” or “low” calorie really means• Concerns about having a low TDEE and fearing extremely low maintenance calories at goal weight• The difference between deficit calories and maintenance calories• Why setting your app to lose two pounds per week may be cutting your calories too aggressively• How to use a TDEE calculator to project realistic maintenance numbers• My honest thoughts on sweeteners and why I consider them a useful tool• The reality behind the aspartame fear headlines• How I manage sweets and chips as a diabetic without eliminating them• Why I don't eat from the bag and how being selective helps control both calories and blood sugar• My take on water flavour drops and why they are not “cheating”This episode is a reminder that accountability is built, not flipped on like a switch, that calories are contextual, that tools are meant to be used and that consistency is not about being perfect, it is about continuing.If you have a question you'd like answered on a future Weight Loss Wednesday, please send it in.

Everyone seems more stressed than ever — and oddly, some people even wear it like a badge of honor. But chronic stress isn't something to brag about. It quietly alters the way you think. It amplifies worry, exaggerates threats, narrows your options, and makes worst-case scenarios feel not just possible, but probable. Over time, stress doesn't just affect your mood — it reshapes your perception, your judgment, and the decisions you make. And because the shift happens gradually, you often don't realize it's happening at all. Clinical psychologist Arthur Ciaramicoli has spent decades studying stress and its impact on the brain and behavior. In this conversation, he explains what's actually happening neurologically when stress rises — how your brain shifts into a more reactive mode, why you become more negative and less flexible in your thinking, and how chronic stress can trap you in a self-reinforcing loop. We also explore why modern life seems perfectly designed to keep stress levels elevated and why simply “relaxing” isn't a realistic solution. Most importantly, Arthur shares practical, science-based strategies to interrupt the cycle — techniques you can use in the moment to calm your nervous system, widen your perspective, and prevent stress from distorting your thinking. If you've ever made a decision under pressure and later wondered, “What was I thinking?” — this episode will help you understand exactly what was happening and how to prevent it next time.

There is a national push for rapid weight loss with drugs like Ozempic. These drugs carry a high risk of adverse health issues and create a dependency that injects artificial agents into the body to mimic what that body does naturally. Our nation is in a health crisis. Big Pharma's solution is to override your body systems with their poisons. A whole body health approach helps the body reset  its systems and naturally restore and rejuvenate the body temple. It also allows the genes of the body to express their full potential... known as epigenitics. The goal is to give the body what it needs to over come sickness and restore itself to its fullest potential.  #BardsFM_HealthAndWellness #WeightLoss #Epigenetics Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%: www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

Today marks the exciting launch of our Lenten series, "Waiting for Weight Loss." This six-week-long journey is designed to reorient your heart towards what’s truly important while acknowledging your goals for body change—whether that’s weight loss, looking younger, or any other transformation you’ve been hoping for or working toward. Throughout Lent, you'll get 20 short, practical podcast episodes—three each week—full of encouragement, strategy, daily prayers, and honest conversations about body image, food, and faith. Today, Heather shares her own experience, inviting listeners to consider the difference between healthy goals and making body change an idol.

What if your weight loss resistance in your 40s isn't about willpower, but a powerful hormone shift that changes your metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and fat storage? In this episode of the Metabolic Freedom Podcast, Ben Azadi welcomes back hormone expert Karen Martel to unpack why weight loss resistance is often a biological signal, not a motivation problem. Karen explains how hormone disruption from environmental xenoestrogens can create estrogen dominant symptoms in younger women, even when bloodwork appears normal. The conversation then shifts into perimenopause and menopause, where the real metabolic shift begins. As estradiol declines, women often experience increased belly fat, worsening cholesterol, rising blood sugar, poor sleep, mood changes, and accelerated aging of skin and muscle. Karen breaks down the critical difference between estrogen and estradiol, why metabolic health often declines after ovarian function changes, and why many traditional weight loss strategies stop working during this phase. You'll also learn how environmental toxins impact hormone receptors, why hormone metabolite testing like the DUTCH test can provide deeper insight, and how bioidentical hormone replacement therapy may support long-term metabolic and overall health when used appropriately. If you or someone you love is entering their 40s and struggling despite healthy habits, this episode highlights a major missing piece.   Key Topics Covered Why weight loss resistance is often hormonal rather than a willpower issue How hormone patterns differ between fertile years, perimenopause, and menopause What xenoestrogens are and how they mimic estrogen in the body Common sources of hormone disruptors: plastics, fragrances, pesticides, cleaning products, and receipts Why bloodwork may look normal while symptoms of estrogen dominance still exist Daily detox strategies to support hormone balance, including minerals and sauna use How hormone dynamics shift in the 40s as estradiol begins to decline The difference between estrogen and estradiol and their impact on metabolism Why fasting harder and eating less can backfire during perimenopause How estradiol loss affects insulin sensitivity, visceral fat, cholesterol, mood, libido, and collagen The Women's Health Initiative misconception and the role of synthetic progestins How urine hormone metabolite testing (DUTCH) helps personalize hormone support Why individualized care is essential when considering hormone replacement therapy Karen's personal experience with rapid menopause symptoms and recovery The role of gratitude and mindset in long-term health and resilience   Resources & Links Mentioned Karen MartelWebsite: https://karenmartel.comPodcast: The Hormone Solution Podcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@karenmartelhormones/videos Special OfferCoupon code: FREEDOMDiscount: 15% off at https://karenmartel.com   Follow Ben Azadi
