249: The "Ghost Fat" Phenomenon – When Your Body Changes But Your Brain Doesn't

from Irresistible You: Lose the Emotional Weight | Body Image | Confidence | Weight Loss · host Aimee Beltran

I was at Medieval Times and walked past the mirror and didn't recognize myself for a minute. Even though I haven't had a huge weight loss recently, I'm down over 70 lbs and my body is constantly shifting and adjusting. It's hard to recognize this new version of you especially when you're stuck somewhere between being "fat" and not quite at your goal weight yet.  When your body goes through changes from weight loss but your brain hasn't caught up we call that "ghost fat." Ever lost weight and still felt...the same? Or caught a glimpse of yourself and wondered who's staring back? Join me as I unpack the reality of not recognizing your ownbody after weight loss. This is the juicy stuff that diet culture or the "before and after" infomercials don't teach you. Irresistible Links🗒Enroll in the Irresistible You self-study course here! Show Notes✉Sign up for my free action plan & get on my email list! 📸Stay connected with me on IG @IrresistibleIcing 👩‍💻 Follow me on TikTok @irresistibleicing🔮Join the free podcast discussion group on Facebook 🛍 Shop My Amazon Storefront💖My go-to journal for staying on track! 🎧Subscribe to the podcast free with the Amazon Music app. Sign up here for a free 30-day trial of Prime to try it out today! ☕Want to support the podcast?
