Episode 167: How to deal with hunger during a calorie deficit and make weight loss progress you can maintain.

from SC Fitness · host Sian Childs

This week's episode came straight from a question one of my Thrive clients asked in our group - and I knew so many of you would relate to it so I wanted to expand on my advice to her on the podcast.She's been tracking calories, staying in a deficit, but recently she's been feeling constantly hungry, low energy and a bit rubbish. Sound familiar?In this episode I'm talking about why hunger in a deficit is normal - but misery isn't, how what you eat can transform how full you feel without eating more calories, why your menstrual cycle affects your hunger more than you might realise, what a diet break actually is and why planning one can help you get better results in the long run, and what to do after your event or holiday so you don't lose all the progress you've worked so hard for.This one is for anyone who has ever felt like they're either fully on a diet or completely off it - and wants a smarter, more sustainable way to approach fat loss for good.🎥 Mentioned in this episode:If this resonated with you, you might also want to watch this video on my YouTube channel - 'I thought weight loss would make me happy and I was wrong': 🌿 Want to work with me?Thrive Spring intake is currently open until the end of May.
