If you've been trying to lose weight and feel stuck, this episode will reframe everything you've been taught. In this solo episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz explains why weight loss is not a calorie problem, it's a hormonal one. She breaks down how insulin and cortisol control fat storage, why vitamin D acts like a hormone in the body, and how one simple morning habit can help reset your circadian rhythm and support stubborn fat loss. Dr. Mindy introduces the idea of a weight loss toolbox, reminding you that no single strategy works for everyone. She also answers listener questions about weight loss plateaus, fasting challenges, cravings, and building muscle while fasting. This episode is about learning how to work with your body instead of fighting it and why small, consistent habits can create powerful change.
