In today's episode Blythe and I do a little "Fat Loss Free-styling" where we "chew the fat", so to speak, about fat loss. We discuss a number of things that we hear "fat loss expert" say that we feel is not entirely accurate or is actually downright wrong. So, today's episode is about doing a little myth-busting where we discuss things like: Should you detox to lose weight? Is sugar the cause of obesity, rather than carbs in general? Do you need to eliminate all carbs? Should you totally overhaul your lifestyle?

Recently a listerner, Sam, wrote us about our position on low-carb eating. He referenced an article on leangains.com that seemed to contradict our approach to fat loss. In the article, titled Low-Carb Taliban, the author goes on to equate the low-carb movement to religious fundamentalists who preach unproven concepts and refuse to sway from their […] --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/support

In this episode, we're going to hit the reset button and go back to the fundamentals... Why eating fruits and vegetables is so important and why the research supports the addition of foods that are low on the "energy density" scale. We often get caught up in the need for new and "advanced" weight loss tactics when "simple" and "easy" are far more effective. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/support

In this episode we interview Dr. Daniel Amen, author of the book, "Unleash The Power of the Female Brain"... During the interview we'll discuss the difference between the female brain and the male brain and how to use that information to cultivate more will power, self-discipline, and make better decisions around food and lifestyle. Core Philosophy of Dr. Amen According to the work of Dr. Daniel Amen, poor mood, lack of willpower, lack of self discipline, and poor decision making can be linked to having a sick brain caused by an unhealthy lifestyle. When we make healthier choices, not only do our bodies improve but our brain gets healthier. When we have a healthier brain, we make better decisions, enjoy better mood, and live long and energy-filled lives. In his book Unleash The Power of the Female Brain, Dr. Amen speaks about the unique challenges to females and how their brains differ from men. He then provides a system for improving your brain!

The topic of meal frequency has not been a topic of much controversy because most experts just assumed that eating 4-6 small meals per day was superior to 3 meals or less per day. Assumptions are a dangerous thing... What does the science say about meal frequency? You'll be interested to know that there isn't much research at all and the majority of the research is not too compelling. In the end, the answer may surprise you. In this podcast episode, we discuss the research and, more importantly, what it means for you. You'll discover that although most experts suggest 4-6 meals is superior to 3 meals for weight loss, that it actually may not be. You'll learn that the body doesn't go into starvation mode after just 3 hours, in fact, it takes approximately 72 hours to trigger the dreaded starvation mode. You'll learn how to apply this information into your own life! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/support

Should you use meal replacements when trying to lose weight or are they just a crutch? If so, how do you get the most out of them? In today's podcast episode, we cover the topic of the role of meal replacement shakes, how they differ from meal adjuvant shakes, and how to supercharge it all by making some minor changes to your meal replacement shakes. Convenience is a key ingredient of long-term fat loss, and meal replacement shakes are a simple way to make life just a bit easier. We have to be honest with ourselves, sometimes we aren't going to take an hour to cook up a breakfast or go to the store to pick up a snack. Shakes allow us to mix or blend up a simple snack or meal in 5 minutes or less. If, however, you make some common mistakes in building your meal replacement, you could actually inhibit fat burning, rather than improve it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/support

In this interview with Jon Gabriel, author of the book The Gabriel Method, we discuss the impact of stress on our body's ability to store and release fat. Jon reports that emotional stress changes the chemistry in such a way that makes it want to store fat and that in order to burn fat you must remove the underlined reason for the fat's existence. For many, this reason is not caused by eating too much and exercising too little, in fact, we eat too much and move too little because the chemistry is out of balance due to too much emotional and physical stress. In this show we discuss: The chemistry of storing fat How emotional stress changes the chemistry of the body, literally forcing the fat cells into overdrive How to trigger your body to let go of fat How to eat to burn fat If fruit consumption can be a problem Much, much more A  Links: The Gabriel Method Main Website The Gabriel Method Total Transformation Package --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cut-the-fat-podcast/message Support th
