EPISODE 41 SHOW NOTES

I’m calling out the elephant in the room on today’s episode… because it’s a huge issue that I see among so many women today. 

If you’re struggling with difficulty losing weight, gut issues like chronic bloating, low energy, hormonal imbalances…did you know that under-eating can make all of these things worse?  Not eating enough calories and food on a daily basis is its own root cause, and will undoubtedly lead to a plethora of frustrating health symptoms.

In this episode I share things like the basics of determining how many calories you should be eating, how to reverse diet and slowly add more calories back in, strategies for recovering a low appetite and more. I’m diving into what really happens to your metabolism, hormones, gut health, energy levels, and menstrual cycle when you’re chronically under-eating.

I’ve had my own experience of low appetite struggles and under-eating in the past paired with intermittent fasting. My personal ‘hormonal hot mess story’ led me to pursue functional health, and I’m now very dialed into my body and what it needs to function well every day.

in this episode, The #1 reason why you’re struggling with weight loss, low energy, hormonal issues + bloating, we cover: 

• The incorrect assumption that so many people have regarding those who are overweight and how much they’re eating {3:08}
• The variety of issues that can occur when you’re chronically undereating/not consuming enough calories {3:50}
• What happens to your metabolism when you’re not eating enough {7:11}
• Examples of what calculating your TDEE can look like + utilizing an InBody scan to get a more accurate reading of your BMR {8:34}
• What it may look like when you’re under eating + the ‘unsexy’ parts of functional health that will actually get you the results you’re looking for {12:10}
• My experience with low appetite and intermittent fasting + how my personal ‘hormonal hot mess’ story ultimately led me to pursue functional health {14:53}
• Ways to effectively recover your appetite after dealing with low appetite for so long {19:41}
• Dialing into your body and gaining crystal clear awareness around how it’s actually doing every day {22:52}
• The importance of tuning into your menstrual cycle {26:01}
• How certain childhood experiences dramatically shaped your relationship with food today + getting support to work through and move forward {27:04}
