Trying to seek weight loss goals without sacrificing energy, your health and tanking your metabolism? In this episode, I’m sharing 6 practical tips to stay healthy while losing weight, and why your gut microbiome may play an important role in weight management and body composition!
There’s a lot of conflicting advice online about weight loss. As a Registered Dietitian, I take a weight-neutral approach and focus on strategies that support long-term metabolic health, energy, and healthy body composition (muscle, fat ratios) rather than restriction or focus on numbers.
YOU’LL TAKEAWAY: 
✅ How protein and fibre intake can support appetite control, satiety, and healthy weight loss
✅ What the research says about the gut microbiome and its potential connection to weight
✅ How chrononutrition and eating in alignment with your circadian rhythm may impact metabolism
✅ Why focusing on body composition and visceral fat, rather than just the number on the scale, is key for long-term health
