194. 3 Types of Weight Loss Plateaus Explained & How to Break Them
Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!Being at a weight loss plateau can feel very frustrating, especially when you feel like you’re doing everything in your power to get the scale to go down and it’s not budging. While we don’t want you to give the scale any of our emotional power, we do understand that you want to see some progress. Remember the scale is only one indicator of progress. Also consider your energy levels, how you’re sleeping, how your clothes are fitting, and just celebrating the little consistent things you are doing for your health. All that being said, there are three types of weight loss plateaus that we’ll explain today. Once you understand the type of plateau you’re experiencing, you can tailor your strategy appropriately. Weight loss plateaus are completely normal on your weight loss journey. If you anticipate the stalls, they won’t be as discouraging.Just like any other facet of medicine, you can only improve a condition if you have the correct diagnosis. A great example of this is treating low back pain. If you don’t get to the root of the problem, you can spend months of time and money on physical therapy sessions, chiropractor appointments, or medications that don’t make much of a difference. In the case of a weight loss stall, if your strategies don’t match the type of plateau you have, you’ll face similar frustration. There are three types - circumstantial, mental, or physical. Listen to this episode to learn more about how to break them.Subscribe & ReviewSubscribing and leaving a rating and review are important factors in helping the Reshape Your Health Podcast and the YouTube Channel reach more people.

192. 6 Science-Backed Tips to Lose Body Fat & Gain Muscle
Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!In this episode, you’ll learn 6 science-backed tips to lose body fat and gain muscle. This is an important conversation because if you’re trying to lose weight but aren’t doing these 6 things, you’ll accidentally lose more muscle mass. This loss of muscle mass makes the weight you do lose harder to keep off due to a slower metabolic rate. Then all the work, money, and energy you put into losing weight will have been in vain. And you'll be stuck on the weight regain rollercoaster yet again. We want you to stop going on a diet, and start having a diet. One that helps you achieve and maintain a healthy weight, body fat level, and muscle mass. Then you can just continue to live that lifestyle instead of starting and stopping diets. Be sure to stay through all 5 tips because I’m sharing a bonus one at the end. And if you don’t follow this bonus tip, all the other tips will be far less effective - if they work at all.

191. Low Calorie Versus Low Insulin for Weight Loss - Which Works Better
Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!In this episode, you’ll learn 4 differences between low-calorie eating and low-insulin eating for losing weight, and more importantly, keeping it off. Why is this conversation important? We believe a lot of the frustration and feelings of failure that are commonly associated with weight loss can be mitigated through a low insulin approach. So many come to us after being trapped in the weight regain rollercoaster. This looks like unintentionally gaining weight, gaining motivation to get it off, doing some sort of short-term diet to lose the weight, regaining weight, feeling like a failure, then starting the cycle all over again once you regain your motivation to change. How you go about losing weight - whether the low calorie or low insulin approach, will determine three things. First - the type of body weight you lose. In other words, are you losing fat or muscle mass? Second - how likely the weight is to stay off due to your new body composition. Third - your weight loss experience in general. I.e. Are you miserable, cold, tired and hungry? Or satisfied and energetic?Subscribe & ReviewSubscribing and leaving a rating and review are important factors in helping the Reshape Your Health Podcast and the YouTube Channel reach more people.

190. How to Sleep Better - Part 1 With Valerie Cacho, MD
Have a question you want answered on the podcast? Send us a text!Anyone who has struggled with insomnia, difficulty falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, or waking up too early knows how a bad night of sleep can make everything harder. Good sleep is essential for good physical, mental, and emotional health. One of the biggest barriers to losing weight in midlife and after menopause is poor sleep. Chronically bad sleep raises cortisol, which raises glucose, which raises insulin. This drives fat storage, not fat burning. In light of this, we wanted to bring on a sleep expert to discuss frequently asked questions about sleep.Valerie Cacho, MD, is an integrative sleep medicine specialist. Her interests and expertise include: diagnosing and treating medical sleep disorders, women's sleep concerns, mind-body approaches to insomnia, self-compassion training, clinical hypnotherapy, and promoting sleep health and wellness.
