Episode notes
Effective Fat Loss Begins With Calorie Deficit
- Any diet can work for fat loss if it creates a calorie deficit and you can adhere to it long term.
- Prioritize a high-protein, whole foods diet with fiber and vegetables to improve satiety and reduce hunger.
Diet Sodas and Cravings
- Diet sodas do not inherently cause weight gain and may help curb cravings for some people.
- Sparkling water with lemon or electrolytes is a useful hack for reducing hunger and cravings by improving hydration and taste.
Optimize Sleep Environment and Timing
- Use blue light blockers, dim lights, and sleep masks to minimize light pollution before bed.
- Eat dinner at least five hours before bedtime to improve sleep quality and avoid heavy, spicy, or salty meals near bedtime.
