What’s the healthiest way to lose weight and keep it off without counting calories?On paper, it sounds simple. But in a modern world of ultra-processed foods, clever marketing and disrupted hunger signals, it’s rarely that straightforward.And that’s why I think this is a conversation for everyone.

It shapes your energy, your metabolic health, your gut and how you feel from one day to the next.👉 I’m joined by Dr Federica Amati, PhD, a Medical Scientist and Registered Public Health Nutritionist with over 15 years of experience in research and clinical practice. We take a food-first approach to fat loss by focusing on key foods that improve satiety. And we get into a really important and often overlooked topic.
