If eating less worked the way we were told it should, most people wouldn’t still be struggling.

Many people are tracking calories, trying to be disciplined, and eating less — yet still feeling hungry, tired, and stuck. In this episode, we unpack why weight loss isn’t just about calories.

You’ll learn:

• Why the calories-in, calories-out model often falls short

• How insulin affects hunger, fat storage, and energy

• Why calorie deficits feel harder to maintain with insulin resistance

• How blood sugar spikes and crashes drive cravings and fatigue

• What to focus on instead of simply eating less

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “doing everything right” but your body isn’t responding, this episode will help explain why — without blame or extremes.
