🔥 Main Takeaway:

The common belief that calories in vs. calories out is the key to fat loss is not only flawed — it can destroy your metabolism.

💡 Key Highlights:

  • Host shares his personal 80-pound fat loss journey after breaking free from the calorie deficit trap.

  • The Lie: Counting calories works temporarily, but ultimately leads to hormonal imbalances, slowed metabolism, and weight regain.
  • The Truth: Weight gain is not a calorie issue — it’s a hormone and inflammation issue.
  • Metabolic health must come first. Get healthy to lose weight, not the other way around.
  • Example: Biggest Loser contestants regained weight due to damaged hormones (ghrelin/leptin) post calorie-restriction.

  • Practical Solutions:
  • Cut carbs to <50g/day
  • Follow the 2-2-2 rule for healthy fats
  • Eliminate snacking
  • Practice intermittent fasting (e.g., 18:6 window)

  • Science-Backed Insight: Gut health and hormone balance play a bigger role than calorie math.
  • Bonus: Free access to the Metabolic Freedom Course + interviews with Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Daniel Pompa, Cynthia Thurlow & Megan Ramos when you order the book at http://www.metabolicfreedombook.com
