Episode notes
Prepare Mentally And Physically First
- Be mentally and physically ready before starting a diet; stress compounds and dieting is added stress.
- Ensure good sleep, low life stress, healthy hormones and minimal diet fatigue first.
Stress Adds Up During Diets
- Stress from any source adds together and can push you past a tolerable limit during dieting.
- Dieting while facing major life stressors often reduces success and raises the risk of muscle loss.
Fix Your Sleep First
- Prioritize sufficient sleep before and during a diet because it affects hunger hormones and fat-loss success.
- Improve sleep duration and quality to boost leptin, lower ghrelin, and preserve fat-loss efficiency.
