If your face looks puffy or your belly feels soft and bloated despite watching what you eat and working out, it might not be body fat!

In this episode, we break down why puffiness, bloating, and stubborn belly weight often come from inflammation, water retention, stress, and hormonal signals—not a lack of discipline or "failing" at your diet and exercise.

You'll learn how to stop chasing the wrong solutions and finally understand what your body is actually telling you.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why puffiness isn't the same as fat gain
• The hidden drivers behind bloating and water retention
• How stress, sleep, and food quality affect your body
• When fat loss strategies backfire
• How to respond instead of react
