About this episode

This episode discusses why calorie counting may not lead to weight loss and explores the impact of blood sugar and insulin on fat storage.

You've cut calories. You're exercising. You're trying to do everything right. So why does weight loss sometimes stall? In this episode of In Your Corner, I discuss why calorie counting may only be part of the picture. We explore the role of blood sugar and insulin, how they influence fat storage, and why the foods we choose can have a very different effect on our hormones, hunger and ability to burn stored body fat. I also explain the difference between a diet based around quality protein, healthy fats and lower carbohydrate foods compared to one that causes frequent blood sugar spikes. If you've ever wondered why eating less doesn't always lead to losing more weight, this episode is for you.
