234: Optimal Weight Loss Part 2

In this episode, Dr. Ali Novitsky breaks down the science of sustainable weight loss by focusing on the critical balance between nutrition, metabolism, and strength training. If you’re wondering why your efforts might not be yielding the results you expect, this episode will help you understand how to optimize your approach. Dr. Novitsky explains why achieving a calorie deficit is essential for weight loss and how your basal metabolic rate (BMR) plays a crucial role in determining the right deficit for you. She shares the importance of proper nutrition during weight loss, warning against the risk of muscle loss if strength training and balanced macronutrients aren’t prioritized. Listeners will also learn that exercise alone isn't enough for effective weight loss—nutrition is key. Dr. Novitsky emphasizes the value of conducting a nutrition audit to understand your current eating habits and make necessary adjustments. She walks through strategies to balance protein, carbohydrates, and fats for optimal results while also introducing mindful nutrition and intuitive eating as alternative, less structured approaches. This episode offers practical, science-backed strategies to guide you on your journey to sustainable fat loss, without compromising strength or muscle mass.
