205 - The Boring Basics That Actually Work for Fat Loss

Fat loss - when done right, it's boring! That's exactly what we're talking about this week - the boring basics from fat loss plateaus to pizza trade-offs, we break down the boring basics most people skip, and why that’s exactly where you need to focus. We talk about macros, periodizing calorie deficits, emotional eating, volume vs. satisfaction, and the importance of performance-based goals.We also dive into a powerful (and disturbing) conversation about a viral interview where an 11-year-old was prescribed Wegovy - and why this signals a dangerous generational cycle of diet culture repeating itself yet again. Expect unfiltered takes, zero fluff, and practical mindset shifts you can use now - no fancy weight loss supplements or cortisol morning routines needed.Topics Covered:Why long, aimless calorie deficits backfireThe difference between volume eating and just “eating more”The mental side of food boredom and emotional hungerWhen macros help and when they become a distractionWhy your goal shouldn't just be fat lossWhy it’s time to stop outsourcing your decisions to influencersShoutouts:Beth’s 5K a Day for Sobriety (starting Aug 1)Amy crushing it with our Patreon workoutsFit Fat Strong July Book Club: The Mountain Is YouThank you Cured Nutrition for sponsoring our podcast!We LOVE Cured products and know you will, too!
