Ep. 200 How to Balance Your Blood Sugar for Easier Fat Loss

We officially hit 200 episodes! We appreciate all of you that have listened to one, all (DM us if you have) or anything in between!

Last episode we talked about how optimizing insulin and blood sugar is really the hidden gem for a lot of people’s hormone healing and weight loss journeys, we chatted about how to know if you are insulin resistant or on the path toward insulin resistance, and we walked through the science of how these things actually work in the body so you can UNDERSTAND WHY this impacts your weight.

This week let’s chat about how to actually balance blood sugar from a nutrition, movement, and lifestyle perspective!

First, I want to share a story about a woman named Susie who also listens to the Vanessa G Fitcast.

Susie just started her own business and is busier than ever. She sleeps 5-7 hours at best and often forgets to eat, leading to some binge eating at night and/or on the weekends. She has always carried a bit more weight than she would like so she has had a history of yo-yo diets in the past to try and lose the weight.

Nowadays she eats overall healthy, but truthfully her health isn’t as much of a priority as it once was, as she is at her desk most of the day and doesn’t have time for much activity.

She listened to Episode 199 and starts to put the puzzle pieces together of how blood sugar could be playing a role in keeping her stuck.

If you resonate with Susie, I have 6 foundational blood sugar balancing strategies that you can start using today that we've seen make a tremendous difference in the lives of our clients.

Let us know which ones you'll be incorporating soon!
